I can feel it, the days growing shorter and the nights growing longer... The full moon has to occur within the week...
I am not exactly looking forward to my next transformation, but there are others like me here and I need to get in contact with them. This may be my last post for a while, seeing as I'm transforming and things may go bad...
No progress on the cure for my Lycanthropy, although I did find some interesting articles on the internet, they turned out being totally fake, but still I found them quite entertaining.
No word from Adamant, wishing him well wherever he may be, and also wishing for him to finish whatever he is doing and get back to helping me!
More later... I hope...

I think I like living here...
I decided it would be best to leave the lair for a bit to do some grocery shopping. Everyone knows to keep a plentiful supply of steak handy for your cycle... right?
Whilst browsing through the meat department, I happened to notice several other people doing the same thing I was! Now, at first I thought it was a coincidence... humans eat meat too... but then I noticed we all had shaggy hair, again coincidence... then the man next to me started sniffing all the packages and pulling out the best smelling ones!
That was the selling point. I am not alone. When the full moon hits I will try to remain human enough to find them and see if they can help me.

Halfway there...
The moon was half full last nigh and I am beginning to worry if I will ever be able to cure this Lycanthropy... Looking through the old magics left me with one of two unpleasant options: Get stabbed through the heart with a silver knife, or get beaten to death with a silver mace of some kind... I believe that my exact words upon discovering this were: "Oh... Fascinating..." But, seeing as I wear silver jewelry, I don't think that will work.
Found a few more promising books at the library but they turned out being novels. I don't want to read some imagined person's struggle with what I am dealing with! I want a cure for the werewolf!
While at the library, I did some research on the web. Mainly lore and old wives' tales, but there were a few interesting points I stumbled across: As a normal thing, Lycanthropy is a curse or it is bestowed upon you by the Devil. Some stories indicate werewolves being warriors of God. Personally I like the second one. There were many ways, I found, to become a werewolf, but none to revert to human form permanently.
Oh well. I will find a cure eventually.
Adamant is still away, (not that I expected different) I really wish he could write me, I could use some instruction on how to read these blasted books of his... what are they written in, Demonic?
My presence here remains unnoticed by the Order of the Benign, but this is always questionable. I do not know if they are interested in my kind or not, they might be too busy chasing after Adamant, or they might not know I exist... I give it about a week before I have to move again...
As for my updates on the Blood Worms, they turned out to be around two meters long and five of them sprouted from my hand... ouch... I knew being a Bloodmage would hurt, but I never thought it to be this bad... I found in chapter thirteen of my grimoire that you can not only summon familiars to do your bidding, but you can also form your body itself into a weapon! One item of interest to me will take some time to master, but will be worth it. Summoning Blood Golems.
I will keep you posted.

Trudging along...
No breakthroughs with my curse today... the moon is almost half full and i shaved twice today... at noon and again around dinner...
Interesting...
I ran into an old friend of mine at the Library, it was entertaining. I don't think she was quite expecting to see me at all... or ever again for that matter...
I will continue to search for my cure, hopefully I will discover something before my cycle begins at the next full moon.
Maybe I have been looking in all the wrong places, I will try Mayan, Aztec, and maybe Indian spiritualism in my next endeavors since blood magic has been failing me epically.
I did stumble across a new spell in my book... It involves summoning small creatures known as "blood worms," I will try it out and post about the results.
Wish me luck.

Dusting off the... dust...
I am not planning on hearing from Adamant for a long time, if at all...
This morning I started to search for a cure in his books, to no success. Apparently one needs to know several archaic languages in order to read these tomes...
I would consider my new center of operations rather secure... and dusty... I hope dear Addy likes the sand, seeing as there is lots of it here. I found an English translation of the Necronomicon in this vast library I had to transport, and I will be searching through it as well as some of my own books. I don't expect to find much at all...
I will attempt to go and find a bookstore or library nearby with new reading materials tomorrow and I am hoping for the best.
Adamant, my friend, if you are reading this, go west.

Back in action.
The Brotherhood caught up to us at our last location, Adamant left, saying he had something to do...
Whatever he is doing had better help me cure this thing or I may just get upset. After carrying all his equipment to our new location I was very tired. Books are not light, needless to say thousands of them would follow that trend.
I will update more later, as now I need to rest and recover my strength for the upcoming cycle...
