This last day has been a dark one. For the first time since these attacks started, we have Lost friends. These toys gave their lives for Jordan, and for us, and we will feel their Loss keenly.

Mailman Matt was Lost yesterday in the attic, rescuing his cat, Tress. We believe he succumbed to the shadow monsters up there. Matt was a good friend to many here, and could always be relied on to deliver the post on time. We will miss him.

Stuntman Sam has also been missing since the trip to the attic - all we have found of him is his shades. We are currently assuming that he, too, has been Lost, but if anyone sees him, please let myself or Pretty Princess Penelope know immediately.

Then, last night, we Lost yet more toys. Roxy Fox was sucked into the wardrobe, giving her life to save Wayne the Crane. Roxy was a kind and helpful toy, who showed incredible bravery in her actions last night. She has been taken from us too soon, and we will miss her.

And finally, the Eyebles were lost in action last night, scouting the Dark Tower under the bed. It seems that the tower has incredibly potent defenses, blasting anyone that gets too close with lightning. Unfortunately, only one of the Eyebles survived and returned to us, the others have all been Lost.

Please join me in a moment of silence as we mourn our friends, and thank them for their sacrifices. And let us take this as a wake up call - the monsters are truly dangerous, and we must work harder than ever to avoid Losing any more friends. Thank you.

“Jordan, do you have any idea what happened to the figure that was on the windowsill in the conservatory? It’s limited edition, so let me know if you see it anywhere.”

Jordan spends a while looking for Stuntman Sam – they were planning on some exciting action games but they are upset when they can’t find him – or Mailman Matt.

They go down to ask Dad, who advises Jordan to keep better track of his toys. It seems a bit ironic, given that Dad himself seems to be looking for something, but Jordan heads sadly back to their room to see if they can find something else to play with.

Jordan considers other options, seeing which of their other toys might be fun for an action scene. They’re surprised to find a wooden plane they’ve been using to play the bad guy pretty often. He’s got a pretty bow on! He must have had a redemption arc!

Jordan spends the rest of playtime working out what kind of journey Raymond must have been on to have become a good guy. It helps a little to deal with his sorrow for seeming to have lost Sam. Maybe he’ll show up soon though?

I felt the flash of fear and power as each of them broke, shattering into inert shards under the magical assault. The tower is surrounded by a haze, a magical barrier which enacts retribution on those foolish enough to venture closer.

We were foolish.

With each strike of that dread lightning, a jolt of fear felt in their final moments, an unnatural shiver overlaid on the very natural fear we felt. Fear is power, the beastfolk of the forest said.

I understand that now. And I am so very afraid.

After last night’s ‘adventures’, the room is a little messy – though not as much as it might have been if the void had been allowed to keep absorbing everything all night. In particular, parts of the train track (sans train) were flung about the room – some pieces flew through the window and wall of the dollhouse, ending up impaled in the inner walls.

“Hey Sweetheart, how did you sleep?”

“Bad Daddy. I was called into the headteachers room but when the door opened the room was covered in animal heads on the walls, and they all looked scared. And it wasn't Miss Susan in there, it was a scary old man telling me off but I couldn't understand the words he was saying. But it felt like he was going to expel me.”

“Oh my darling, no one is going to get expelled, Miss Susan was just a little concerned about your falling asleep in class yesterday and wanted to make sure you were ok. Come on and lets get ready, we will have a better day today.”

Important OC note: The Dreamcatcher is not based on real world traditions or spiritual beliefs. The lore around the Dreamcatcher in this game comes from ideas inspired by personal childhood imagination. We as the GM team want to be clear about this and will be sensitive about this representation.

IC: Thanks to the brave efforts of several toys, The Dreamcatcher has been found. It is currently in the possession of Edda. However, efforts to get the Dreamcatcher to allow entrance into Jordan's dreams will require effort from the entire toy community.
