I remain concerned about the possible existence of The Black Lodge here on Galador.

There is a very real chance this place of pure evil arrived on this planet at the same time as the town of Twin Peaks. While that brings up concerns of a real, tangible tie between between the two places, it's not my most urgent concern.

If the Lodge exists here, then so does the entity known as BOB. But if everything truly happens for a reason, what possible reason would BOB have for existing on this plane of reality?

On the blessing of Commander Fury, I am beginning an intensive investigation into this. I hope my concerns are merely misplaced paranoia... but I fear that they are not.

Normally, I am full of joy that the wondrous, mysterious town of Twin Peaks is here with me.

But today, I find myself feeling dread rising up inside me as well. Threatening to drown the joy in it's thick, black waves.

A thought occurred to me during the night, and now I can't stop wondering: if Twin Peaks and it's surrounding woods are here... is The Black Lodge here as well? The entrance is there. It opens only under very specific circumstances, but is it actually accessible here? If that type of concentrated evil is indeed active and alive here, I fear what may happen if and when someone discovers a way to enter.

As I sit here in this coffee shop called "The Sugar Shack", I find my thoughts varied and random.

I find that the friendly, upbeat nature of this establishment is extremely endearing... yet the difficulty in obtaining a plain cup of black coffee that isn't flavored in one of, apparently, 134 different ways is quite frustrating.

I seem to meet new, increasingly interesting people each day, yet I can't help but constantly think of people I can no longer see - Audrey. Harry. Annie. Cleo. Bless him, even Gordon Cole.

It's a very melancholy feeling, one that has admittedly caught me quite off-guard.

I see we've lost a lot of people in, sadly, a short amount of time.

My heart goes out to those who lost loved ones. I lost the only real friend I'd made here, so I do know how you're feeling.

Diane?

I'm once again on the odd, fascinating world called Galador. And this time, the entire town of Twin Peaks seems to have arrived here with me. I have no idea how much of the population came with it, but I will be investigating that shortly.

The Double R is here as well, so hopefully I can still get a cup of their amazing coffee.

I do worry that if the town could appear here... the Black Lodge could have as well. More information to follow as I learn more.
