If you can’t say something nice, Don’t say anything at all!

YOU HAVE FOUND THE STARLING JOURNAL...



You inspect the page. It's worn and weathered, dated from thirteen years ago. The writing is messy and amateur, as if written by a child.

May 4th
I’m scared. Mommy said to wait on the steps and I did, but she never came back. The people here say this is my home now… But I live with my mommy!

They gave me this book to write in… I don’t know what else to say. Good night book.

May 5th
I want to go home.

May 6th
Does she hate me now? Was I bad? I’ll do all the chores and be good forever if I can go home. I’ll stop talking about the pictures in my head.

The other kids want to play… But I don’t want to. I feel sad.

May 9th
I played today. I told the boy no at first but he said he wouldn’t leave until I tried. So I did. I was shy but it was fun even if I didn’t talk much.

He is nice. His name is Lin.

After reading the page, you see a flash before your eyes. It’s a brief image of a small boy curled up in the corner of a room littered with toys and shelves of children’s books. He clutches his diary in his hands as another red-headed boy approaches him with a smile.

Prepare for another clue...

It would seem so, because of his visions.

@Kent: Yep. Cuz he saw crazy stuff. He's not a normal kid.
Family members probably thought he was creepy, and his mother might have even been afraid of him.

Indeed.

I expect his family thought him cursed and feared him.

I'm sorry, but, please don't ping me for that....

Voltie — HIM Posted 6 years ago ( 2018/11/7 23:55:32 )
Mhmm, definitely.
Probably some event happened where he tried to warn a family member about something bad that would happen to them.
They blew it off cuz it's just a kid's crazy imagination.
But then it happened.
Word for word like he'd said.

Kent- Ah, sorry. It's habit.

SECOND JOURNAL CLUE

"The raven perched upon a shop's window, its scarlet eyes fixed on the display in interest.
Six monitors played a variety of programs, and it watched them all."

Where was it?

Also as someone born 'gifted' I can easily see how that could happen. I was lucky enough to come from a family where at least one person each generation seems to be 'gifted'... oddly on both sides of my family o-o; But yeah. Growing up seeing or hearing things that not everyone else can, it can spook or impress a lot of normal people. Even when a parent doesn't fear it, I've heard of many non gifted parents with gifted children feeling over whelmed due to being unsure how to help their child when they need guidance or help with issues relating to the gift or gifts.

I won't give it away.
But the riddles direct you somewhere on the forums using keyword clues.

Someone mentioned a clue for the first one ."Fozzy is our king"

This one mentioned TVs.
