| Unlike most other subjects of this program, number 29 is neither indigent nor criminal (although the latter is subject to debate -- as he __did__ enter the castle without permission). He arrived on the night of 21 May in the company of a [[wizard|Human/Male Illusionist]] (name unknown; ethnicity: [[Spindrift]]) intent on thievery (or worse). | Unlike most other subjects of this program, number 29 is neither indigent nor criminal (although the latter is subject to debate -- as he __did__ enter the castle without permission).

| Subject is a skilled fighter in the employ of said Illusionist. However, when his employer fled using magical means, No. 29 was unceremoniously left behind -- indicating a noticeable lack of fealty and/or morality in said employer. At the time, I sensed both betrayal and resignation on the part of No. 29 -- though that may be my own negative opinions of said Illusionist interfering with my observations. | Subject is a skilled fighter in the employ of said Illusionist.

| Unfortunately, while his physical form remains exceptional (despite his advancing age), I fear his mental faculties remain significantly diminished. He has only a vague recollection of his initial visit back in 1091 and was not entirely sure why he had returned. | Unfortunately, while his physical form remains exceptional (despite his advancing age), I fear his mental faculties remain significantly diminished.

| He explained that his adventures with [["Wizard"]] (the morally deficient Illusionist) allowed him to see the world, but that eventually they parted ways. Neville initially wanted to return to his homeland of Backbone, but the wars and refugee problem diverted him to Resh -- where he spent several years. Considering the rampant xenophobia that nation exhibits, I admit some surprise that an outsider would spend so much time there willingly. | He explained that his adventures with [[wizard_pc|"Wizard"]] (the morally deficient Illusionist) allowed him to see the world, but that eventually they parted ways.

| Regardless, this revelation prompted me to ask him more of [[Resh]] -- with my intent to shed light on the weird dream I experienced the night it died. However, he refused to speak of that event and grew increasingly agitated the more I pressed. In the end, I was only able to confirm that he __did __witness the fall. Why he alone was able to walk free remains unknown. | Regardless, this revelation prompted me to ask him more of [[Resh]] -- with my intent to shed light on the weird dream I experienced the night it died.
