... WHOA! WHOA WHOA WHOA WHOA WHOA! Hang on a second here! Are these...
Wings! I have wings! How did I-- who put these here?! They're terrible! I can't even fly with them! I mean, what's the point? Aside from making me look ridiculous. And if that is the point, it's a pretty ...
... wait a second.

The journal doesn't pick up anything else after that. He's gone -- searching for some sign.

Hey, who's there?! Can anyone hear me?! Why is the book magic? What's going on?!

somber introspection,
