Aesop Carl Diaries

This page contains the manor events and diary entries for the Embalmer, Aesop Carl. The full diaries are not yet released besides one entry, which was his 2021 Birthday Letter.

## Manor Events

Aesop participated in a Manor Game along with three other participants, including Toy Merchant, Postman and Subject 3-1-4. Their designated hunter is unknown. Due to the elimination of all the participants before the Manor Game began, his Manor Game was likely cancelled.

### Diary ?: ?/?? - Aesop Carl

Everyone's finally here. The letter said that the match would start in three days. Tomorrow, it'll be time for me to talk to that man.

Last night I dreamt Jerry, who was standing in the dim yellow light and arranging human remains in the coffins. I helped him place white flowers in the coffins, he patted me on the shoulder and said I had done a good job.

I think that dream may have been a sign, congratulating me on finding my purpose and reminding me of what I must do.

Over the years, I have kept Jerry's teachings in my mind and have never forgotten my duty as an undertaker. Since entering the manor, I have been looking for the right person to attempt a new start. That flakey girl won't do, and neither will that cranky guy with a strange accent. Someone quiet would be best suited for lying in a soft comfortable coffin... and now, my search is over!

He truly has a face made for eternal slumber! He always sits in the corner silently, looking as though he holds a secret he is terrified of anyone finding out. I think... I'm the only one who understands him, and he understands me as well. I'll talk to him tomorrow... or maybe I should write a note or a letter to him. Only he can understand that I badly need him to become my "silent friend."

If he wants me to, I can even "take care" of his dog as well. And the other two, although they're not the most suitable candidates, I can bide my time for the perfect chance to send them off.

I can't wait to open my makeup box and complete my mission.

### Diary ?:?/?? - Aesop Carl

Returning to my room and writing these words means that everything is over. Anne Lester and I dealt with that guy, and she kept screaming irritatingly throughout the process. Later, I made arrangements for her and completed my mission in an orderly fashion.

The flames seem to be sending everything off, and my friend has fallen asleep in flames for his pursuit.

I admire his persistence, but I still feel sorry for him.

Mr. Jerry Carl said rebirth of the soul requires a whole body at peace. My friend has been always been silent as a corpse. It is like he has been preparing for the path of return, and not only did I bury him in a sea of flames, I didn't even see him close his eyes.

As for Mr. Jerry Carl, the one I'm most grateful to, the last time I saw him, his entire body was soft as if his bones were made of noodles.

I spent quite a bit of time embalming him, and he groaned in pain when he finally took his last breath.

The flames are growing. I can smell the burning, and dust from the broken wood is falling on me.

It's like a stone thrown at me from long ago. It isn't very painful, but it distracts me.

Like how the dust falling from covering the coffin stained the makeup Jerry had done for her.

Like the day he took my hand and led me out of the graveyard, the air was full of dust from the storm. .

..

I've completed my mission, and I know what I must do now.

It's finally time for me to be on my way, but there's no one to embalm me now.

So, the sea of flames is the best home for me.

These flames will illuminate my new journey ahead.

Toward new beginnings, and to usher in the last hymn of the soul.

## Further Analysis and Notes

The below article or section(s) contains speculation, analysis, or theories which may include unconfirmed information.When adding content, use references to link or explain **legitimate/official** supportive evidence for specific theories, otherwise it may be removed.
* Aesop seems to be single-minded in finding people who are suitable for a "peaceful slumber." Of his fellow participants, he seems to be particularly interested in Embalming only one of them, though if the opportunity arises it seems he would so the same for the rest.
* It seems most likely that one of the participants of his game is the Postman, as Victor is the only character with a dog companion.
* It is heavily theorized by the community that the "flakey girl" may be Toy Merchant whilst the "cranky guy with a strange accent" is Batter. This has yet to be confirmed by the two characters' upcoming letters/diaries.
