Another strange oddity today but a wonderful one. Meg Giry! A youthful girl of whom I knew many years ago at the Opera when we were dancers, I had the pleasure of meeting today! She hadn't aged a bit! Still that young girl from those long ago days. Oh, to be that age once again. As strange as that is, having already met Meg whom is my friend indeed as nearly the same age as I, this was a strange but wonderful delight nevertheless. We did converse a while as I took some refreshments of Monsieur Lenoir and Monsieur Raoul Christophe, both of whom are recovering from an earlier incident in the Village. After which I conversed with her for a short time in my Suite. It truly was a delight. Though strange as it is to have more than one Meg Giry here, it is common place in this awkward estate for there are several Eriks and a few of we Christines as well as a couple Raouls. I know I sound mad stating this. But I assure, I am not mad but this is the truth to say the least. I do look forward to seeing little young Meg again.

Forgive my absence and lack of writing. I know it's been nearly 3 weeks since last I wrote in these pages. I shall make this short but will give a full accounting later. For now I continue to rest.

Oh, where do I start other than I have recovered well enough to continue with my daily routine. I suppose I shall begin with what happened to me.
Some time ago, I was kidnapped by some odd man in lengthy fair hair. His behavior was very strange and frightening! Far more frightening than my Angel of Music, than Erik. He was in the company of rodents and behaved so much like them. Keeping me within his range yet did not treat me with an ounce of Civility. I felt like a prize and feared deeply for my life! I lost all track of time deep underground. Lord knows when I decided to escape and found my opportunity eventually. But my escape from his lair was only the beginning of my Hell. And I do not say such a word so lightly! I ran and ran, so frightened. Worse, I knew not where I was going! There is a vast, expansive network of caverns and tunnels under the Manor that I never thought possible! How is it that so much hollow ground and caverns can hold up a massive estate such as the Manor? I was lost for an unknown amount of time. It's difficult to know when it's day and when it's night for it's always night down below! Darkness reigns supreme in this realm. Alone I was quite frightened. Noises all around me did not help my nerves any but only sent them on edge like a frightened doe in the midst of hunters and hounds. It was in the darkened tunnels, so damp and cold that Monsieur Dalimar found me. At first, I was beyond my wit's end until I found reason to trust him ever so slightly as he took me to recover in some strange room that I knew not where it was. But dare I say, I was not alone! Oh, fear! Sorrow! Hopelessness! Again, time was completely lost to me.
What next I recall is being in my Suite, in bed. I was exhausted but not much else that I can remember.

Adding a little more here. I simply have to get this out of my mind. The image haunts me daily and I desperately try to purge it from my mind. Or Him I should say. No, not Lenoir. Worse! I never thought it true or such reality but this Manor has made all things possible! Even us! I had the unfortunate encounter with the Devil Himself! I dare say, I have never been as frightened in my life as I was at that moment I meet Lucifer. He burned my soul with those wicked eyes, I was at his mercy and unable to move until I fainted. I know I had for when I awoke, I found myself in my bed! Sheer panic gripped me as I was terrified that he had done what he wished with me. But by some saving Grace, I was unharmed and untouched! Oh, Praise be to God in Heaven for I was spared from Satan's lusts. I'm afraid. Not just for myself now, but for all within this here Manor! They are my new family, every one of them! I dare say I wish to protect not only my Husband and Son from Him, but Monsieur Carriere, the young Christine and her FianceƩ, the younger version of my Husband, Monsieur Erik, Monsieur Lavalais, and especially Monsieur Lenoir! No doubt there are others there as well whom I have yet to meet I must! I must find them all! I must see to their safety! I feel a different purpose here. Oh, what horrors await us here more than our petty little troubles? Lord God in Heaven protect us!
