 		I don't know if Wikibruce makes wiki's for every ARG. I'm sure you could ask him to, however.

I responded to Kana's email and am anxiously waiting for her response.

 		FYI... you can set up wikis easily at wikidot.com if bruce doesn't set you one up. or ask spacebass at despoiler.org.

I'd be happy to set one up for you guys to populate if you want.

 		Kana's dream diary now has entries... and they're dated to Wednesday and yesterday.

I'm trying to figure out this wikidot thing.

 		Someone might be found dead in some body of water... Or something. That's all I can figure.

Keldaran - Cool

Kana replies to my email questions...
Kana wrote:
I do not know how to answer correctly to your questions. I speak what I can to myself, the doctor wants me to speak to him though. I do not know who to respond to his questions, but I will do what I can for your questions.

First of all, I see you can read my journal, which brings huge fascination! I can't do much to help myself let alone help others who too read my entries. What is one thing I would want to know is to find or figure out what is the medicine the doctor is giving me. I fear it is the cause of these bad dreams. Since I have heard other news from people outside my door, there was a connection with my dreams and these deaths that make me think that what I see in the dream world have to do something with the dead people. Maybe it is a vision of what is to happen in the future?

My head has been hurting since the last time I saw the streets, and I know that I say things that I have not come to realize before but now. I do not know who I am nor can I bring back the memories of what had happened or what use to be before coming in to this place. What I know is that the doctor tricked me into believing I can trust him, like any other person who I thought could help me, only to be stuck in here and be forced to take that unknown medicine. What is that medicin anyways? I do not know, but hope that someone would tell me what exactly it is and why he is giving it to me other than helping me find out how I can return to which I was before I found myself lost.

I'm now going to research the drugs and attempt to figure out what they do...
EDIT: Umm the drug Laudanum is an opiate derivative. The only FDA-approved use for laudanum in the United States is the treatment of severe diarrhea Rolling Eyes that does not respond to mainline therapy or modalities. Common off-label uses of laudanum include the alleviation of pain, and treatment of neonatal withdrawal syndrome when diluted 1:25 (one part opium tincture to 25 parts water). LINK

 		Finally got a reply from Kana

Ah, thank you for reading. I am so glad people can see what I too write. But the doctor has one as well>? Please, tell me, what does he say about me? Do you know what he is giving me?! It hurts to take his medicine and it's the reason why I have bad dreams. Please, I beg of you, try and figure out what that horrid medicine is he is giving me!

I hate his guts and I feel scared every time he is around me, I know he isn't helping me at all! ...Ugh...my head hurts..


Really interested in the medicine... BIG DOT me thinks

 		And now a new post from the "good" Doctor

http://angrydoctornotmad.blogspot.com/

A little bit too convenient that Kana's cam was down about the time a little girl was drowned... Dream-scape maybe? Unless one of the other cam feeds were messed with.

Dr. Konstantin's "treatment is a reference to Alice (American McGee's that is)
So the Dr's post HERE claims his treatment is:
Dr.K's blog wrote:
cold plasters and bloodletting in the morning...some extreme shock therapy at night...I'm preparing her a serum with laudanum as the key ingredient. I do hope it will cause some sort of progress.

This is basically the same treatment outlined by Dr. Heironymous Q. Wilson in "The Casebook of Alice" for the game American McGee's Alice. See the reference HERE - starting from the "10 December 1864" entry to the "22 January 1865" entry. Its exactly what Dr. K is administering to Kana. Shocked I wonder if Dr. K is using Camphor as well...Hmmm bizarre...Anywho, I wonder if the Dr. got his degree AT THIS SCHOOL

Angrydoctor Bloodletting isn't helping any. I think tomorrow, I'm going to try administering some lithium... 23 minutes ago from web


Laudanum, cold plasters, blood-letting, shock therapy and now lithium.

 		Alrighty, check this out - You know that game that Ammy was playing earlier? It was American McGee's Alice. He said he stopped playing it because his older brother (doctor) used to play it.

Kana wants to know where California is, and she feels really bad that her dreams depict real life deaths. I told her her last name, and now she is wondering where the rest of the Itsume's are. She also wonders if her friends are looking for her. There might be a connection between the dead females and Kana's friends:

Kana wrote:
Where is California anyways?
I'm sorry if I do question you, I do this to make sure people are not like doctor.

So I was right...my dreams are what I believed to be visions of death to those who do not expect such a fate? I feel...so horrible...but that medicine doesn't help anything. The more I was forced to take it, the worse I felt with in dreams and the new deaths.

Itsume...my last name? So I wonder were the rest of the Itsumes are..my home that must have abandoned me, or taken away from...
I feel like I can put my trust on you and your loyal friends. But the girls from my good dream and the girls from my other dream looked familiar....were my friends...looking for me?


I also told Ammy to get his water boots ready. There might be a dead body coming their way soon.

EDIT - Kana has a hole in the wall near her bed. Her dream diary has a new post. The police have pulled a body out of the water.

EDIT2 - Ammy has a new post, as well. He links to a video. There is static, but there are also letters that appear. Anyone want to take a stab?

EDIT3 - Video's letters spell: Where did you go? Why did you leave me? I hate you

EDIT4 - Kana disabled the camera in her room. I just wonder where the letters came from? Who is wondering where who went? Who hates who?

EDIT5 - Last, but not least, the wiki us sort of updated. Feel free to edit my crap. Whoo. I seemed to have incapacitated another ARG! Or maybe everyone is asleep...
