Entry #9:
I'm already changing. too damn scared to open the box, and it doesn't matter. did I ever have a choice? I always had a narrative, I just ran away when it started. if I'd stood and faced it, maybe it wouldn't have gotten this bad. but... if this artifact is altering me anyways, then what'll happen when I open the box? I'm not ready for it. he told me I would become like him. is this what it's like for him?
