* the trio is back in a semi modern time
* there's a record from the about some tragedies

	+ the Minuet is mentioned
	+ a dirigible crashes and burns over the town in 1937
* wrapped in a newspaper is an old journal
	+ journal of Tobias Johannsen
		- January 15, 1789
			* snow fell last night, and for some reason, should be unsettling
			* Elizabeth Johannsen has packed a lunch for them
			* little Toby Johannsen
		- July 10, 1789
			* met with Rev Cartwright to discuss his dreams of Daseth
			* he may have to "screw my courage to the sticking place and prevent that apparition from becoming a reality"
				+ where is the sticking place?
		- February 27, 1790
			* Toby is speaking, he's 2 years old
		- December 25, 1790
			* Christmas time
		- March 3, 1791
			* the smallpox epidemic starts
			* they have confined themselves to the grounds
		- April 15, 1791
			* Elizabeth and Toby have fallen ill
			* Tobias asks God to swap places with them so that they are healthy and he is ill
		- April 16, 1791
			* spoke with pastor Cartwright
			* Daseth beckoned him to a doorway. He followed through
			* Tobias saw "terrible wonders"
			* pastor Cartwright and another Jan Kunicki have confessed to having the dreams as well
		- April 17, 1791
			* pastor Cartwright, Jan Kunicki, and Tobias Johannsen met to discuss their dream
				+ they saw him in a field
					- maybe the one by the mill on the south bank of the Ikandaset
				+ next he was by Shepherds Rock
				+ finally was by Witches tree
				+ was pointing at ground
					- indicating that these are places where something is to be built
						* not sure if its the gates but in ROE 32 there are black discs in the ground
		- April 18, 1791
			* the message is now clear
				+ Daseth was asking them to build something
		- April 19, 1791
			* the smallpox epidemic has ended
			* the thing Daseth commanded them to build is apparently something bad, as Tobias describes it as "a dark path"
		- June 15, 1791
			* they built three gates
				+ located in prominent places so Daseth can feed, and feed his master
					- Who is Daseths master
				+ may be gates to the Dark City
				+ "Prisoners, children, and the faithful will now know his monstrous hunger"
					- the gates are likely at the prison
						* in modern times the Ikandaset Asylum
						* the schoolhouse
							+ later questioning leads the trio to think that the childrens location is the mills
						* and the church
							+ these three locations are all fairly close to the river
							+ these three locations all had something burn down
							+ may be the reason why when St Gladius burned down, it was rebuilt (1799) in a different location
* in 1791, carters were called to town to move large amounts of dirt and dump them on an unnamed hill outside of town
	+ may be the hill that the house in episode 28 and 29 was on
* the door at the top of the stairs leads out into a room full of small glass cases and desk area
	+ The Historical Society
	+ there's a section dedicated to the Twin Mills
		- the mills Margaret Trembley was found at
		- one is a flour mill, one is a grist mill
			* a flour mill and a grist mill are the same thing
			* why are they called different things?
* there's a dark spot on the back wall of the Historical Society that wasn't there before
	+ it pulses and then spreads to about three times its former size
	+ it keeps spreading
	+ everything it touches fades
	+ the trio leaves
	+ the building crumbles as they exit
		- there's a ghostly blue light, "as though reflecting off of water" coming from inside
			* is Daseth somehow responsible for their movement through time?
