The rustling of movement could be heard at fist.
"Is thing thing working... yes, okay let's do this." A deep exhale could be heard. "This is new to me but I know of a few people who have a journal or audio logs and it helps them. Might as well give it a shot myself to keep my thoughts in order."
"So I'll start this off with why I'm doing this and some basic information." A few seconds of silence would follow before he speaks again. "My name is Randall Oland, codename 'Ymir' as in the giant from Norse mythology, I'm 24 and a Senior Medical Officer within the Foundation medical corps stationed at Site-66. I started this after an incident [DATA EXPUNGED] involving a [DATA EXPUNGED] known as [DATA EXPUNGED]. It's been two days now and speaking to my two new "sisters" I have some information but not enough to say the least." This would be followed by another long pause with general background noise of the site. "I met [DATA EXPUNGED] on [DATA EXPUNGED] in the garage of Site-66 while trying to contain a breach of SCP-049 and SCP-049-2. I heard a voice, this voice said to be quiet and let no one follow and go into the upper control room to meet. Like an idiot I followed to where she revealed herself, sword in hand. She hushed me before I could scream or call out for backup and then..." His voice would begin to break a little, shaking. "Well then she [DATA EXPUNGED]. She [DATA EXPUNGED] my fucking chest and [DATA EXPUNGED]. A fucking [DATA EXPUNGED] right now. I blacked out up there to be found and dragged off to med-bay where they ran a gauntlet of tests and found nothing, not a god damned thing. A [DATA EXPUNGED] was [DATA EXPUNGED] and I can't prove it... at least not physically."
He would take another shaky breath steadying himself. "Okay... okay... after getting into the med-bay and waking up I heard a voice in my head, the voice of [DATA EXPUNGED]. She let me know that my new "family" consists of [DATA EXPUNGED] and [DATA EXPUNGED] and that I should go speak to them. Well I went and spoke to them both where I found out a few things. The [DATA EXPUNGED] in my [DATA EXPUNGED] consists of the memories of [DATA EXPUNGED] who is quite old and needs human subjects just to store these memories. These scrolls are also what link me to [DATA EXPUNGED] and [DATA EXPUNGED], I feel their pain and they feel mine, I feel their emotions and they feel mine, and I guess if [DATA EXPUNGED] is around she acts as a conduit of sorts where I can speak to them with my mind and vise versa. I don't even know what to think at this point but [DATA EXPUNGED] did inform me they managed to stab her once and I plan on doing it again along side them. For now I need to learn more about what effect these [DATA EXPUNGED] have on us. Maybe check to see if wounds transfer through our connection and what happens when the [DATA EXPUNGED] is removed and read. For now I need to speak to [DATA EXPUNGED] more and see if she has anything else to tell me and maybe help with this... minor testing. Otherwise I've wasted enough time talking into this thing I better get back to regular duties."
Another round of rustling could be heard as he tries to turn off the recorder.

A small thump could be heard as the recorder is set down on a desk.
"Today is November 22nd, 2024 and there's already been some new things happen in my strange new world. First I told someone new of my... disposition. As well I have a new brother, not in the sense of that bitch [DATA EXPUNGED] but someone I chose. Finally I found out something new about this [DATA EXPUNGED] and it's rather interesting."
"I'll start with the new person dragged into my mess now. I let [DATA EXPUNGED] know about the [DATA EXPUNGED] and he was understanding thank god but I also asked him one of the hardest things I've had to ask..." A few seconds of silence pass. "I asked if I turn into a monster for him to see me brought back to my old self or kill me. I refuse to fall to the [DATA EXPUNGED] and I refuse to become a monster. It's strange honestly, after I told him this and did some of our own "testing" and then we did something I never expected. [DATA EXPUNGED]. It's a great feeling knowing I have him to rely on now."
"Now onto the [DATA EXPUNGED], turns out I could view the [DATA EXPUNGED] and the [DATA EXPUNGED] that is holds. With the help of [DATA EXPUNGED] and [DATA EXPUNGED] it would be possible to see into my [DATA EXPUNGED] and get some information about it, how useful it'll be I have no idea." He would let out a long sigh. "Life is going to be rather interesting for the foreseeable future. With everything going on right now I have no clue if this will be the end of the road for me or a new beginning. If life wasn't strange enough already I would be more worried about this but I'm strangely calm with the current situation. I'll try to keep this updated but hopefully I won't need to update this for a while."
A slight noise could be heard as he picks up the recorder before it is turned off.

"Alright I think I'm getting better with this thing... anyway I got some new updates on my situation. I spoke [DATA EXPUNGED] and [DATA EXPUNGED], interestingly enough, on what [DATA EXPUNGED] is and how to do it. I guess it's easier than I expected, all I have to do is focus on the [DATA EXPUNGED]. Easier said thane done but I plan on bringing [DATA EXPUNGED] and maybe [DATA EXPUNGED] into this but that poor woman has been through enough recently. So the next step after figuring out who to bring is the where. My few options consist of [DATA EXPUNGED] if I can get the green light on that, or maybe using somewhere in [DATA EXPUNGED]."
He would strum his fingers on something making a quiet and rhythmic tapping.
"At this point I might just be straight with [DATA EXPUNGED] and do it there. Maybe bring one of them instead of bringing [DATA EXPUNGED] into this mess. His knowledge of this mess is danger enough honestly. I know [DATA EXPUNGED] isn't out to put a bullet into my skull so maybe they're the safest route for now. I'll speak with [DATA EXPUNGED] and get his take on this for now."

"Well I don't want to admit yet but it's best I do... Squire is gone, something to do with the thing he called 'The Beast' and others call 'Larn'. I have no idea what it was or why it did it but from what a D-Class said Squire made a deal with it while he was still a D-Class. I knew a day like this would come with everything he had gone through but I never got to really say a good bye."
A few seconds of silence would pass before he spoke again.
"That man was one of the first friends I had down in this hellish site even if he was a D-Class. He did incredible things and he was a good man even if his past got him into the D-Class program. I refuse to forget who he was and what he did for me. I wish things could have ended differently but I have another letter to burn. ᛏᛁᛚᛚ ᚢᚨᛚᚺᚨᛚᛚᚨ ᛒᚱᛟᚦᛖᚱ ᛁ ᚺᛟᛈᛖ ᚹᛖ ᛗᛖᛖᛏ ᚨᚷᚨᛁᚾ ᛟᚾᛖ ᛞᚨᛁ."
