[A FAMILIAR DIARY] [The upper-half portion of the first page is harshly redacted.] [Thick black lines hide text behind their visage.] [The only word you can make out is "HOPE"] MEMF-IHMF2 - why it followed me... part of it, at least. late one night, i went to the basement. i don't even remember what for, but i saw It out of the corner of my eye. the painting, tucked in a corner, beside her bookshelves ...and next to it, the purplekey i threw away. the whole reason i had left it there in the first place was cause... well, it had been... a few weeks now? or at least i think so... anyways, i was coming to terms with the harsh reality of the situation i might not find my way back at first i thought someone had been messing with me, somehow they knew about it, and... just wanted to fuck with me for the hell of it, but... i haven't told anyone, nor was there any other traces of it being here. even still, here it was. i entered the painting, it brought me to a normal variant, as expected most notable, lacking a top floor or basement... and no wanderer painting almost as if it somehow just, spawned here... could it have something to do with my purplekey? this changes everything, and maybe now with this knowledge i can finally go back and... see them all again god i miss them
