Saint's Journal
Tree of the Shrike
Downtime
Rivulet visits Saint
As Saint finished writing, he heard a familiar noise behind him, turning around, he saw a familiar sight.
"whatcha doing?"
she signed.
"I was writing a log, but I'm finished, for now at least, what do you need Rivulet?"
he replied.
"Nothing much! just wanted to see what you'd found, when you returned to the gates you mentioned that you found something, but didn't say anything about what it was, so I'm curious!"
she signed quickly, as is normal for her.
"ah, well, I don't exactly know myself, so I can't tell you much, here, you can read my blog to know what all I know so far."
he hands her his logbook, already open to the first page.
"I know you can read faster than I can speak so this is-"
Rivulet interrupts him.
"all done! this is really neat! I hope you can figure out what's up with this thing! and those Kushima you mentioned, do you think you can sketch one? I know you aren't exactly an artist, but can you at least try? please? for me?"
Saint chuckles at Rivulet's behavior, as usual, she finishes the task before he even finishes signing.
"I can try, just don't expect much from me, as you said I'm not exactly an artist, not like you or Gourmand, at least."

Epitaph
The Sons of Salem
We swear to secure our people against the wickedness and evil of the invisible world.
We swear to aid the afflicted.
We swear to stay ever vigilant and seek out the abominable witchcrafts committed in this country.
We humbly pray to be blessed by God to hold all those who consort with the Devil accountable. Amen
—Opening and closing prayer for Sons of Salem meetings.
The Sons of Salem is a loosely-organized conservative populist movement in the United States that preaches violent opposition to anything they perceive as witchcraft, demonic, or monstrous.
Blowhard podcaster Ted Gundy and former general of the mercenary group “Hognose,” Roland Rush, founded the movement in 2010 after a series of violent werewolf attacks and unexplained, supernatural murders in Tennessee. Memberships grew quickly, stoked by Ted’s fiery doomsday rhetoric on his podcast "Truth Seekers" and the aspiration of the masculine power embodied by Roland.
Although they speak of duty, honor, and maintaining the “natural order” of things, the Sons of Salem are driven by fear. They collect guns and appear at protests en-masse as a way of easing the all-consuming terror of their powerlessness. At the same time, they have conditioned themselves to respond to fear with “strength” (read: violence).
