**Lab notes compiled by Doctor Airwyn von Hobbes**

**[32-08-06]:** On suspicion of Ms Sparkblade, Ms Puretorque's arm was found both warded and infected by void energies. Several blood samples were taken before the patient was quarantined; until she escaped in a storm of void energies. The patient fled and escaped after fighting the association; according to Miss Steamsmith, her arm had transformed into what looked like the inside out of an animal.

Lumenshine too arrived in a violent manner before being chastised by Mr Springsteel, on order of myself Mr Smitebang performed an unorthodox purification ritual on Ms Lumenshine after which another blood sample was taken. She appears normal on the surface and the latter blood sample thus far appears clean while the former sample appeared to be in an earlier stage of Ms Puretorque's, now revealed as Ms Voidstitch's, corruption.

Four rats were captured and are being used as test subjects. They were named by Mr Sparky and Miss Steamsmith.

1. Greyhair was injected with Lumenshine's pre-purification sample, he's no longer as friendly as he used to be and does no longer enjoy the friendly interaction provided by Miss Steamsmith, deeming it uncomfortable.
2. Long-tail was not injected, though attacked by Jack after the latter turned violent. For now, Long-tail appears normal, the blood doesn't appear to spread unless it's injected or consumed.
3. Jack was injected with Voidstitch's sample. He attempted to kill anything within range before purple boils popped out of his back and killed him. The remaining rats avoid his corpse.
4. Averdale was injected with Lumenshine's past purification sample, he appears no different than before.

My conclusion is that the blood is a gradual infection that converts the blood, spreading it in the subject's system before they transform. We're not yet sure on what the subjects are transforming into; blood samples are being gathered from beings connected to the void for comparison.

**[32-08-07]:** Ms Lumenshine appears lacking in corruption still; to expand our resource of sample blood we're contaminating a blood donation made by her. We have yet to manage to get our hands on any void creature samples of blood, we're now discussing the possibility of getting in touch with a void specialist.

1. Greyhair remains aggressive and bit Ms Lumenshine's hand during the interaction.
2. Long-tail remains normal.
3. Jack's corpse appears to decompose normally this far. Due to the cold climate, he's being moved to a more heated location with soil as to speed his decaying up. For now a box within the headquarters.
4. Averdale appears normal; if not happier, presumably due to the holy energies.

In the wish of starting to experiment on a possible cure I've requested the following components from Ms Lumenshine in the absence of Ms Terracoil:

* Prayerblossom, top priority
* Dreaming Glory
* Deadnettle
* Luffa
* Moonsteel
* Blackroot
* Emerald Acorn
* *Dreamleaf*

**[32-08-08]:** Dreamleaf has been added to the list of requested components. Ms Lumenshine was unable to bring any of the requested components, claiming a shortage of 'everything' in the stocks.

1. Greyhair remains aggressive.
2. Long-tail remains normal.
3. Jack remains normally decomposing.
4. Averdale remains normal.

**[32-08-17]:** An eleven (11) days period has been noted for the infection to reach a Stage 2.

1. Greyhair has turned notably more aggressive and destructive, now considered in Stage 2.
2. Long-tail remains normal.
3. Jack remains normally decomposing.
4. Averdale remains normal.

**[32-08-27]:** A twenty-one (21) days period has been noted for the infection to reach a Stage 3.

1. Greyhair has turned increasingly more aggressive and destructive; his blood appears near to the final product of the infection.
2. Long-tail remains normal.
3. Jack remains normally decomposing.
4. Averdale remains normal.

**[32-09-06]:** A thirty (30) days period has been noted for the infection to reach its final point.

1. Greyhair turned into a void infested abomination, just like our first rat infected with the blood outside of this experiement, and had to be put down accordingly.
2. Long-tail remains normal.
3. Jack remained normally decomposing through the whole experiment run and has now been disposed of.
4. Averdale remains normal.
