Yikes! As I went through this investigation, I somehow have forgotten how much time I’ve devoted to this case but it has certainly become one that I shall always remember. Going through all those notes, my mind is still processing all this information. From the intriguing story of Apollo Glint and his possession to the mystery surrounding this Mr. Skull, it proved the earlier assumptions of my career being a boring one to be wrong. I ofttimes felt like some sort of professor or detective solving some sort of crime which is true in some way. It took a lot out of me and son some occasions, I nearly got killed.

Still, I found myself torn apart in regard to Apollo Glint and his predicament. Part of me believes that he willingly surrenders himself to Mr. Skull’s will as a form of revenge against society over a perceived slight while the other half tells me that he didn’t want any of this. All that ambiguity has me scratching my head as I try to make sense of all of this. It’s like I’m torn between my own personal morals and my professional side. Could there really be any sort of end to all this… for me and him?

The more this case drags on, the more the other patients and staff are put at risk. Did the board honestly believe that they could hide any record of incidents? I have at least one other pony whom I could trust in their ranks. I always find out and why I can’t trust any of them, to begin with. I’m still pissed off about that one time they went behind my back and used a stun baton on Apollo, against my orders. They have yet to fire to that stallion who gave the order.

THough the prior incident hasn’t resulted in any fatalities, I’ve made the decision to summon the princess here to help solve this situation. The letter has been sent via my messenger hawk, Icarus and I anticipate a response within the next couple of days as they are understandably busy with other duties. I just hope that they won’t take so long with their response.
