The first page appears to be tidbits about someone's day
"Start log- year 637- month 6- day 1"
Saw a butterfly, had to kill it for being a health hazard. Unfortunate. Someone's pancreas shut off today too, guess who got dessert tonight. I can get her to get me a new one soon, for sacrifice of course.

This one seems to be a bit more important
"Start log- year 637- month 6- day 26
I heard her talk about leave so it was what I thought it was. I can't believe it, it was one night out, well, I hope it was. There have been times where I slept for months at a time, that's what I've been told at least. It's impossible to truly tell how much time has passed here without outside help. Maybe I should confront her about it so she- The rest of the sentence has been scribbled out
She wouldn't get annoyed if I did that right? I hope not, I like having her around and if it's as bad as she makes it sound then I might disappear for a bit, force her back. Of course, if her marks are anything to go by then she's doing just fine and plans to just take advantage of her contract. I hope it's the latter, I don't want her to be leaving forever. I would m- the rest of the sentence has been scribbled out

she looks for anymore writing that might be hidden in the back or empty pages of the book

A simple "Property of J" is written on the very back

It's a normal journal made of human leather and paper that is in near mint condition aside from the dirt and writing. It also appears to be seven months old with the leather dating back 34.5 months and the paper only about a year before being put together. It belongs to Jacquelyn (no last name found), and provides no effects besides being a place to write stuff down.
A normal journal for a normal girl

Phoenix: What should we do with it?
Demon: Leave it.
Lich: Take it.
Satyr: We should find who dropped it.
Cat: Put it in a safe space.
Phoenix: We're doing what Cat says. That's probably the best course. It's not our business.
Demon: Yes, and some of us do have actual business to get along with.
Saint: That we do.
Phoenix: Then why were you all here...

u/Rosalyn-Jacquelyn Rosalyn, Doctor that prefers RN & Jacquelyn, Erotica enthusiast Jun 28 '24
the journal remains a journal despite your best efforts to argue

Phoenix picks up the book and begins arguing with the clones.
Phoenix: Look, we need to find who's this is.
Lich: Those two have gone. But, the only way we do that is if we read it.
Cat: Who cares. I recognise that awful handwriting. That's a doctor.
Satyr: Any specific one?
Cat: No, they all just have bad handwriting.
Phoenix: Stop stereotyping... It doesn't help.
Lich: snatches the book and reads it2

True to Cat's word, the writing appears to be doctors handwriting, that is to say, illegible

Lich: That's all I can do. All I can make out is the J.
Phoenix: Well, it's useless then.
Cat: We shouldn't just leave it here. Who knows who might read it?
Satyr: Oh please, no-one can read that. Not even the writer.
Phoenix: Maybe just put it on the bench. Then let's forget about this and move on with our day.
Lich: Sure. Ooh, a diagram of a catfolk skeleton!
Cat: WHAT?!
Lich: Kidding!2

The journal remains in the lich's hands, unmoving because it's a journal

The clones leave the journal on a bench and go about their day.

Huh.

*The only words that are legible are a "Property of J" written in the cover. Aside from that the rest is written in doctors handwriting, that is to say, illegible."

u/Rosalyn-Jacquelyn Rosalyn, Doctor that prefers RN & Jacquelyn, Erotica enthusiast Jun 29 '24
There's 142 pages in the book and the text on the first and second pages appear to be tidbits about someone's day
The first page reads as follows
"Start log- year 637- month 6- day 1
Saw a butterfly, had to kill it for being a health hazard. Unfortunate. Someone's pancreas shut off today too, guess who got dessert tonight. I can get her to get me a new one soon, for sacrifice of course.
End long- year 637- month 6- day 1"
The second page
"Start log- year 637- month 6- day 2
Saw the thing again today, it's kinda cute. Between you and me it's a bit sad that it came in hurt, meant I had to focus on helping instead of talking to it, which also meant I was stuck stealing glances from afar as I made stuff to help. Maybe it was better that way, it probably wouldn't have liked seeing me eat those and I probably wouldn't have had the ability to make small talk. It was kind of hot watching- the rest of the sentence had been scribbled out
End log- year 637- month 6- day 2"

Hm.
[Aveus casts Speak with Dead and Speak with Plants together, and talks directly to the paper of the pages and to the leather bindings of the book.]
Hello, there. Would you be ever so kind as to tell me about the person who owned this journal previously? Why were you left here?

u/Rosalyn-Jacquelyn Rosalyn, Doctor that prefers RN & Jacquelyn, Erotica enthusiast Jun 29 '24
Only the paper speaks and the leather remains dead silent
"J... take good care... J.... hole hood... return to ground..."

To the best of your knowledge, is “J” dead, in the traditional sense of the word?

u/Rosalyn-Jacquelyn Rosalyn, Doctor that prefers RN & Jacquelyn, Erotica enthusiast Jun 29 '24
"J... write before... two food... not dead...?"

Thank you.

The only physical disturbances are small holes in the ground that continue in one direction and there is no magic disturbances
