Summary/Abstract: “We might be getting drawn into a trap, boss. Let’s head b–” This was the last thing I heard from Barmeley. He wasn’t the talkative type, but his actions would tell you much more than his words. I could be seeing him and the others today if only I could’ve known beforehand what hid inside that place. The old ones always told me that mourning over the past and what has been done is futile, but I don’t believe this will ever be possible after what I’ve been through. But, oh well, you now want to know what has happened to my men and me, and I won’t be holding back the truth just because it is hard for me to talk about. We will have to travel back two years for the events that unfolded on that day. I will be recording this log in secret; then, it will be promptly put back on some dusty shelf. For the person who finds this log, good luck listening. You will need it.
