A Letter on the Ground with Scribbles and Smudges

Dear Easter,

You didn't respond to my last letter, but I'm going to write another one anyway. Geez, you look terrible. I can't believe right now I'm sitting by your bed, waiting for you to wake up. Is the second prince really so incompetent as to not even be able to fend off a crazed man? Well, I guess his craziness is what makes him dangerous.

Anyway, now your pristine and immaculate reputation has been tarnished, I wonder what you'll do ██████████n care of, but now there's a new case. But, you've been sleeping for two days now, so perhaps you'll sleep through the case? If you sleep for a week, surely I'll be able to solve it before then.

Well, the doctors say that you're frail, suffering from blood loss, and also from mental trauma or ██████████l like I'm suffering from more blood loss than you, since I'm the one those leeches suck blood out of to keep you alive. Not that I'm mad or anything. If only you exercised more, or even tried to wield a sword properly, maybe you wouldn't be in this position. Geez, I'm starting to sound like you. Maybe I should distance myself and breath some fresh air.

Let me tell you, while you're dying, about the progress I made. Elias doesn't seem to be much of a detective without his eyes, not that he was very good in the first place. But, I suppose he and the Anonymity serve to be a decent team. They found out after more ██████████ting, that Laura also had marks and bruises on her body that somebody had attempted to conceal, along with finger markings on her neck. So, she may have been strangled or beat to death first, then stabbed as a... decoration? I suppose we'll never know which came first, though.

Elias also asked me a question, if the phoenix was the Royal Family crest. I'm pretty sure it is, since it was on my ██████why did he ask? Was there a phoenix on the sword that stabbed Laura? Perhaps I should've gone back and checked, but check out these papers I foun̵̞̊̌͐̐̓̚͠d̵̩͉̹͇͂̐͜͜.̶̜̝͆̀̂͘ ̸̨͙̝̗̹̬̟̭̄̓̊͊͋I̷͔̣͓͈͐́̚ ̴̢̟͓͙̘̠̟̈́̀̂͂̉̐̑͛͜ẇ̶͖̠r̴̢̢̨͍̫̦̤͈̥̉̔͗̂̎̍͊ȏ̷͓̑͋͗̎͜t̸̡̹͍̖̝̣͈̹̐̾̏̏̈́͘͝e̸̢̗̻̠̍̋͌̄͑̋̀͛̇̍̆̂͆̌͆̀̕͝ ̶̡̧̢̧̛̗͚̙̱̤̻̖̭͕͇͖̀̓̾͑̎̃̿ͅô̵̧̞̬͓͉̱̔̿̃̀̿͛n̶̢̝͉̞̫̥̮͔̼̫̤͈̯̘̞̈̍̽̈́̋̔̅͌̓̔́͝͝͝͠ ̵̢̭̫̭̘̥̦͕̳̻͔͔̘̖̩̼̭̭̎̓̑̔̀̄̆͂͑͝ţ̶̡̧͚̲̜͇̪̤̦̘̲͉̆̌̒͑̄̊̐̏̈́̕͠h̷̡̖̜̜̺̳̫͇̰̫̤̥͕̹͑͜ͅͅę̶̢̹̲̖̗͙̳̥͉̫͒̽̅̉͊͆̇͛̽̄̍̈́͗̕̕͝͝͝͠m̸̡̰̫̻̞̯̰̻̝̦͙̤̗͑̀͗̉͠,̴̨̡̪̮̦͓͍̱̟̞̺̳͚̹̰͈̽̀̂̐͗̑̊͊̀ͅ ̴̨̞̬̻͇̩̘͕͖̯͎̥̾̔̇͂͌̕̚s̴̡̧̫̜̟̬̦̘̹̙̝͍̣̘̳̥̜̲͇̾̐ơ̷̡̨̰͙̜̺̦̫̍̈́̂͑̀̀̓̽̇̑̆͐͠ ̵̛̥̗̫͎̹͇̝̃̇̄͂͋̐̅̈̇̓͝ͅh̴̛͙͋̓̽͋̂̾͂͝o̸̡̥̮̼̲̥͉̍̓̂̓̎̾́̾̑̀̈́̈́̏p̵̢̢̧̢̡̛̻̠͇̺̻̭͙̺̙̪͉͉̫͈̟͇̲̻̫͕͉̳̥̣͍̼͓͒̇̊̒̊̄͒̐̅͆̒͂͗͂̾͗̂̓̐̎͑͂̈͒͆̽̒̂̎̾̍̐̑͘͜͝͠ͅè̸̛̳͖̻̣̩̘̼̬͈̭̳͎̩͐̒̒͜f̷̡̧̡̧̧̛̦̦̗̪͈̫̟̩͙̱͙̜̩͈̮͇̣͖̯̗̹̣͔̈͑̇̒̒̇̓̃̌̎͑͛̈́͌̾̚͜͝ͅų̷̛̜̲̻͚̙̟̝͉͇͙̩̘͙͙̘̠̟͓͔̻̦̖̮̖̬̰͔͎̗͍̦̼̒͋̑͛̓̀̈́́̔̔̌̈́̋̋̑̿̑̇̓͘̕͘̕̕̕͝͠l̴̢̨͈̣̹͚̲̪͓̣̙̟̭̫̣͇͎̞͉̩̜̰̯̘̂̒̏̈̉͌͛̓̚ͅl̶̛͕͔̹̝͒̾̔͛̃͆̃̈́̒̽͌͐͗͐̏̎̏̽̀̚̕y̴̲̹̔̈́͆͛͒̎̾̃̎̽̉͂͆̅̃͆̆̍͑͂̽͋͋͘͘͘̕͘͘̚͝͝͠͝ ̴̢̡̢̥͉̭͉̘̱̭̮̙̤̗̜̟̩̬̫̞̟͍̤̠̪̤͙̰̗͇̍̿̓͆̐͐̏̈́͊́̍̔̂̈̓͗̐̀͗̅̂̄̓̏̓̈͘y̴̡̨̧̢̛̛̖̼͕̱͚̠̼̤̘͙̞̲̝̥̜̫̭̠̰̝̮͚̱̺̍̊̈́̂͆͗̾͛̌̐̿̽̈́͑̍̑̽̇͋͒͌̄͗̎̈͌͘̕̚̚͜͠͝͝ͅo̶̡̧̹͈̤͍̜̣̜͍̙̲̙̩̘͓̮̬̬̼̒̋̉̒̈́̈̑̆̇̉͐͝ͅụ̴̢̩̯͔̫̗̼͈̦͙̩̬̭̘͔̜̻̥̥̻̱͇̭̮̱̺̣̞̹͙̩͖͚͖̩͓̈́̑̀̔ ̴̡̢̺̩̞̯̲̦̞̥̙̯̗͈̣͚̱̼͚̼͚̫͉̮̺͍̣̆̾̇͑̈̓̏́̽̂͋̒̀̓̈̿̑̋͋̈́͛̀̑͜͠͝͠ͅc̷̨̨̨̹͚̱̼̖̻͎̪̖̭̪̼̗̞͉͔̰̗͙̓͆̈́͋̔̐͒̓̿͜͝͝å̶̧̧̡̱̞̞̞̯̩̺̹̲͕͍̳̝͖̬̻̤̬̟̤̻̪͈̮̙̊̋̽̅̿͋̋͜ͅn̴̡̨̢͙̫̜̜͇̞͎̯̦͉̗̼̯̣̘̫̩̥͖̰̰̰̠͍̠̗̬͍͐̄̓̓̾̅͌̽̀̿̒̊́̍́̋̿̆̓͊̈́̔̂͗̋͂̚͘̚̕͠͝ͅͅͅͅ ̴̨̢̨̨̨̛̟͉̙͉̘̜͈̱̱̣͈̫͍̖͇̹̗̫̣̥͈̜͈̱̪̹͕͕̟̩̈́̒͌̋̄͒̓̍̐̊̿͂̎̈́̐̆̍̀̒͆̊̀́́͌̚̕ͅs̷̢̞̝̲͓̾̔͂͗̋͂̌̉͌̒̏̀͊́͗͌̍̋̀̽̈́̋̑̂́̋́̐͘̚̚̚͘̕͝͠͝t̶̛̛̮̗͇̗͈͙͙̿̔͐́́̉͌̉̒́́̍͑́͑̈́̾̄̽͑͒̀̀̑́́͋̃͛͝į̴̢̢̢̡̧̱̮̠̻̗̼͚̹̰͎̪̘̦͇͙̯͖̦̪̲͇̝͔̉̀̈́͑͋̅͋͐̈́̓̎͐̓̀̇̑͆͌͘̚̕͜͜͝͠͝͝͠͝͠͝͝ͅͅl̷̡̩̺̼͓̫̯̻̳̮̼̜͕̟̫̪͍̝̣͓͎̳̞͈̪̱̜̩̿̓̊̔̈́́̂͘͝ͅĺ̵̨̧̟̱̙̺̗̝͈̖̖̜̠͇̎̅̀͑̎̉̏̿̇͘͜͠ ̸̜͖͍̖̱̹̲̰͈́̂̇̌͛̿͒͐͒̑̀͆̓̓̿͐̈́͘̕͠r̸̛̥̋̿͆͂̆̄̎́̀̂̈̈́̓͆͗͐́́̊̑̌̓̐̊͒̈͛́̚͘͝͠͝ę̵̡̛̺̘̟͚̤͓̙̠͚͈͔̬͔̤͓̖̦͔͉̯̻̐̈́͋̃̏͑̿̂̔͛̓̽̍͋̕̚͜͜͜a̴̖̐͝d̴̢̨̢̻͕͉͓̳͖̭̥̤̠̠̗̤͕͖̤̈͂̄̌̆̿̅̒̎̈́̔̓͋̾͋͗̚ͅ ̷̧̨̛͇͇͓͓̹̺͍͕͈̰̳̳̩̖̩̣̠̔͗̊͑̀̀͛̄̌̃̐̒̋̀͗͌̀́̽̅̿͘͠͠͝͠t̵̡̧̨̛̗̗̯̱̥̦͉̘͇͇̥̤͈̥̩͙̻͚̼̳͓̗͎͚̮̃̍̋̓̀̀́̀̂̆̊̀͒̀́̉̂̚̕͠͠͝ͅh̵̻̱̖̞̥̾͛͊̒͝ȩ̶̢̧̛̦̟̦̱̬̳̗̬̟͚̖̫̫͎͎̣̳̤͚̱̳̣́͑̓̏̑̾̏̄̂͆̃̋͗͛̄͂́͝͝͠ͅm̵̧͇̜͖̪̰̣̩̥̞̘̫͉̜͙̪̹͕͍͕̙͉̖̙̰̽̌̅̐̒̆͗͒ͅ ̶̛̮̹͐̇̍͂̏̋̔̔̂͊̒̅̇͆̓̕h̵̨̢̠̜̱̰̣͑͛̎̍͋̅͛̄̑̑̋̆̌͌̂͑̈́̊̌̊͑̔̈́́͂̓̃̆͋̓͋̃̍̚̕͝͠ͅă̵̡̢̛͖̞̯̗̩̥̬̥̠̱̂͐́̐̍̉̓͜h̵͍̩̠̬̩͒͛̄͐̓͆̊̀̿́̑̈́͌̄̃̊̆̈͋̍̊͋͂̀̓̋̃̐̀́̌͋͗̽́͛̑̕͜ǎ̴̛̛̛͔̣̲̓͌̒̈͆̽͊̈͊̓́̎͌͌̓̌͗̿̋̓̒͑͊͋̚͘̚̕͠.̴̢̨̡̛̟͙̲͖̣̪̠͍̮̼̙̤̮͔̼̼̬̳̥͈̩͎̩̻̳̰̖͒̉̎̓̽̆̄͛̊͂̓̈̿̓̆̽̌̅̌̾̈́͘͜͜͝͠͝
