Student Espa ran away from home after writing a suicide note. Eris said that he didn't know where he went, but as soon as I tried to enter his mind, he threw up a mental barrier and took off running. I do not know these streets, and had to return to this home after hours of searching. I hope that they are okay, but I fear the worst, as Eris is willful and mistakenly believes that suicide is not a sin against the Gods who created us. He said that it is a sign of free will, and that it means that his brother Espa is getting better.
In addition, Priest Seth, who is most definitely not the Priest Seth that I know, showed up this afternoon dressed in pink and orange to watch television. Quite loudly. Then he took over the computer and left to "meet a cyborg and watch things blow up because oh most holy Ra won't the flames be fucking pretty and maybe people will die and I can show their rainbow-colored souls to the machine boy when they escape the silly flesh bodies!" - his words, not mine.
None of my training has prepared me for a reality as chaotic as this. I will be spending this night searching the city for the Roba brothers, with the three younger ones in tow. Somehow I never thought that my role as teacher and priest would double as babysitter, but I believe that if Espa and Eris see how much we care, they will come to their senses. I also never believed that I would find it comforting to keep a journal inside of a strange electronic machine, but it is.
