GABRIEL KRAFFT AUDIO MEMOIR #5

Transcript:
Krafft: Gabriel Krafft, audio memoir, part five. My servitude to Die Wahrheit was almost over before it truly began.
Krafft: I was tasked with gathering the lost pages of the Tome of Rituals. But I had no idea where to start.
Krafft: All I had were the few pages already in Von List’s possession. One had notes scribbled in the margin. And just as Von List began threatening to execute my poor Sasha, I recognized that handwriting!
Krafft: One of the patrons of my University was an amateur demonologist. Heh, the hobbies of the idle rich.
Krafft: Anyhow, he must have once possessed the pages to have jotted down those notes. Von List had him arrested and tortured.
Krafft: He revealed he had been a member of the Société -- one entrusted with hiding Tome pages. He listed others who also possessed a few.
Krafft: With enough pages, I deduced the locations of various artifacts listed within them.
Krafft: For a time, I was Von List’s most valuable helper. He rewarded me with a letter from Sasha. “Proof of life,” he called it.
Krafft: I tried not to weep as I read it. Von List hated that.
Krafft: But things turned for the worse when none of the artifacts seemed to have any power.
Krafft: I had made a devil’s bargain to keep my beloved alive. But my luck was running out.
