        Well these are good news !
        
        I'm finally managing to see Oscar Yoren, some progress can be seen. I hope i can continue on the researches grandfather started and some more clues on his locations.
      - some times after leaving Lenore
        
        this did not go as planned...
        
        The lillies were more tricky than i thought. The queen and her garden was unexpected and i did not fair well there, if it continues that way i don't think i'll make it. Hopefully luck will turn out the other way...
        
        Also that person in the garden, they had the rags of an apothecary. I did not recognize them, but i feel like i missed something important. They reminded me of grandfather, I hesitated and wanted to call for him, however with my weakened state I had to follow the rest of the party that was leaving. Next time for sure I'll talk to that person, i need to get to the bottom of it.
      - during the night
        
        I don't think I'll make it, so here are some instructions
        
        Take all my notes, they will be a ressource for all of you to use, I complied information about creatures we encountered, what happened, but also they contain my recipes, formulas and other apothecary researches
        
        Don't forget the magical gear i used, i don't know where but i might have left instructions of their usage somewhere in my notes or packs
        
        Once you get out of Drakkenheim for good, please bring that letter to my mother, Sophia Thorne, in Edelwacht.
        
        Hello mother,
        
        The city was a fascinating yet alien place that thankfully is staying contained there. I am sorry for not having been able to fulfill our promise, these ones bringing you the letter should be party of the party i was in while searching for grandfather in the city. II hope they were able to finish what i started and may be able to bring us either good news or a needed closure about grandfather. Attached to the letter should be a lock of hair, my ordained apothecary badge and the family ring. Please place the lock or hair in the family plot near father. The badge is a memento shall you want one and the ring is something that must remain in the family.
        
        I guess I'll see father first, Yours,
        
        Paracelsus Thorne
