We are to be shut down by The Council's new regime. It appears we have become unnecessary. The new legal code seeks to coddle the guilty, providing for "rehabilitation" of the convicts. The very notion sickens me...

Our staff is to be absorbed into the military. The alchemists downstairs were "escorted" out yesterday, along with most of their equipment. It appears the Council harbors distrust toward practitioners of The Arts. While I did not know these fellows intimately, I hope that our new "enlightened" lords show them the same mercy they now reserve for prisoners.

Word from the upper levels is that the facility is to be evacuated. I fear for Coltec and our work. I do not know what the Council has in store for us, but they treat us with an indifference that makes me quite nervous...

They are entirely overhauling the region's legal system, stressing fairness and compassion. Of course, this means lighter sentences, and will likely rob us of subjects necessary for our experiments.

I imagine these Catacombs will simply gather dust after we've left. So many untold stories... so much intoxicating pain. To think we will never hear their cries again...
