I'm writing this while the forum is technically down using a page I had open before it went down. As such I can't quote. I'll list list your names before each post.

Sharp knives, and other surgical tools, are fairly easily obtained from a science supply store, under the guise of doing animal dissections for students. The restraints are also easily obtained, though you go through an "Adult bookstore" for that. Your bags of leather straps and gleaming stainless steel tools cost a combined 120 dollars. Sedatives though...those are more difficult to just walk in and pick up. Pain killers could work but those are very rarely found outside of terminal patients and those recovering from major surgery, and even then they're usually administered in the hospital. You decide to try and call in favors to find some. [3] You don't manage to get a hold of any but the last person you talk to does recommend the use of something like opium or heroin, if other methods can't be found.

You check out several anatomy and medical books before giving a friend you know with a masters in American history a call. He tells you that Holmes was a serial killer operating around the time of the world's fair in Chicago, in the 1890's. Apparently the man constructed a hotel with a vast complex of secret passages and rooms which he would use to gas unsuspecting patrons, drag them down into the basement, dissect them, sell the skeleton and burn the remains. He also defrauded a huge number of people and murdered his way through several women, living parasitically on them until he disposed of them. Most blamed his insanity on the fact that he was locked in a room with a skeleton for several hours as a young child.
Of note is that he had an eye tattooed on the inside of his left wrist.

You go retrieve the books, passing Richard on your way in.

You head up into the attic and find the old box containing your gear from an attempt at getting frog dissection taught at your school. The box is filled with little metal trays, cork board, needles, scalpels, surgical masks, rubber gloves, absorbent pads, everything needed. You find a first aid kit as well, old but still packed with things like antiseptic, bandages, a few needles for suturing, gauze, and the like. You take both downstairs and pull the copy of Gray's anatomy off the bookshelf, balancing it on top of everything.

Ok then.
You search a bit and find that the local YMCA is providing free first aid and CPR training.

The final pages of the journal are confused. They speak of flat earths, being observed by the moon, the allegory of the cave, and finally, of the need for "this world and the other to be separated. Only then can the true masters of the earth guide us to salvation."
