Gregory Grey and the Fugitive in Helika

  Lesley's Diary - Blame - July 19, 1909

  I’ve put off writing about it. I won’t anymore.

  I think I might have caused the Voidmark.

  I thought it as soon as I heard about it. Winnie said millions and millions of people died in the quake and the corruption of magic.

  The corruption of magic makes sense. It sounds like something a Sentinel might do (and I did feel that ocean-y feeling disappear from around me, which I think was the magic).

  I can’t explain the earthquake, but what do I know of the power of Sentinels?

  I should be feel stunned/uber-guilty/horrified/disgusted-with-myself/angry-at-the-Sentinel. I don’t feel any of it, because I can’t believe it.
