It's been...quite a long time, journal. But allow me to explain...and forgive me for the bloodstains marring your pages. This journey through Kengal Pass has not been an easy one for either of us, I'm afraid. The demon attacked the third day in. None of us were ready for it under the cloak of darkness. I barely managed to ward it off with my katana before it came again with more fury, the nasty, disturbing screeches that eminated from its throat as it cruelly tore into me will forever haunt my nightmares. I've never heard anything so ghastly before in my life... Allow me to give you a mental image of the creature. Teeth as long as my forearm jutted from the beast's vile jaws, tipped with paralyzing poison and strong enough to crunch through bone. Huge, black, bat-like wings protruded from its back and shoulders, darker than the darkest night. Its eyes were the most pitiless amber I'm sure I'll probably ever see... Now I know why this demon has recieved the name, "Hellspawn"...it is quite fitting, don't you think? Every time we hear a noise now, we tense up...our hearts beat faster...our swords get gripped tighter... But we're almost there. Almost out of Kengal Pass. We've lost a few men, but not as many as we had originally thought. Perhaps if the demon doesn't attack again, we should be --
