Just a normal day

or a diary of how my brother took control of the town

Dear Diary, day 1 morning

Hi there! I'm Sofia, i dont normally write in a diary, its so outdated but my mom insited it would be great for us to keep track of our lives and after a year ahare the changes sooo. I guess its my safe space to vent, dream, and process all the stuff that happens in my life. I guess you could say I'm an introvert - I'd much rather curl up with a good book or manga yet som eetimes i go out partying and gaming with friends,(not that we have any here yet anyway).

As for my favorite hobbies probably drawing and playing video games and dungeons and dragons, but her i can only play with my brother Lucian. Art is like therapy for me - it helps me to put things that i imagine to life. And gaming is just plain fun, fighing games were my scene, i even wnet to some torunamtes back at the city! Lucian and i we used to play together all the time when we were younger, but now Lucian's more into ecchi stuff and hentai than anything else...

Speaking of Lucian...he's a bit of an oddball. He is obsessed with perverted anime and spends way too much time locked away in his room jerking off to hentai or whatever other nasty stuff he finds online i can hear and it freaks me out. Don't get me wrong, I love him as a brother but sometimes he really gets on my nerves! If he wasn't family I swear I'd probably punch him in the face half the time for being such a degenerate little shithead.

Anyway, our family moved to Pyhno Town this summer for a fresh start after Dad went missing two years ago. It's been tough on Mom - she works long hours at the diner downtown even thought dad left us good money. But she's trying her best to keep things together for Lucian and me.

The four weeks until school starts will be interesting - hopefully we can settle into our new home without too many hiccups. I'm a bit nervous about making new friends, but excited to explore the town and maybe find some cool places to draw or hang out.

AFTERNOON

Well i belived, moving was gonna be boring as hell but, something weird and mildly amusing did happened today! Lucian and I were up in the attic sorting through some old boxes cause the old owners (some old man, retired actor or someshit?).

Lucian and I started sorting through the boxes one by one, trying to decide what we wanted to keep or throw away. Most of it was just useless crap - old clothes, broken toys, yellowed newspapers from the 70s...but then we found something really weird.

Pushed way back in one corner was a large trunk made of dark wood with carvings on the lid. It looked ancient and valuable. Curiousity piqued, we hauled it out into the center of the room.

when we opend it we found this super creepy-looking book. It was called "Sonatas Medley and Reality Magic" or something like that. At first we thought it might be some kind of D&D compendium from an old edition by the look, but still it looked like real leather and shit must have been a special edition, but as we flipped through the pages, it became clear it read like some sort of direct manual on how to use magic and sound to alter common sense and even control people's minds, deatailed spells and not just stats, weird if you ask me.

Lucian started laughing his ass off when he saw the title page. "Sis, can you imagine if this shit was real? I could make Mom think I'm a saint instead of a lazy pervert!" He smirked at me with that stupid grin of his.

"Shut up, you idiot," I snapped back. "It's not funny. This is probably some old nerds stuff." But even as I said it, I couldn't help but fetlel a lite intrigued by what we'd found. The book seemed ancient - the pages were yellowed and brittle with age.

Lucian kept reading for a while longer before he made a crude jokes about using mind. "I bet with this thing I could make any girl fall madly in love with me like a saimin hentai jaja! Or maybe that old mas used it to be rich, after this house is nice!"

"Ew, gross! Shut up already!" I yelled at him, throwing one of the nearby boxes at his head. "You're such a pervert, Lucian! I can't believe you'd even joke about something like that!"

He just laughed and dodged the box easily. "What? sorry sorry just kidding" He winked at me before sticking his tongue out childishly.

Some time passed the sun was starting to set by the time we finished sorting through the last of the boxes in the att. Myic back ached from bending over and my fingers were covered in dust, but it felt good to finally have some order up here.

"Alright Lucian, that's enough for today," I said firmly as I closed up the trunk with the suposed magical book inside. "We should get this stuff downstairs so Mom cans choose what to do with the trunk home."

Lucian groaned but agreed - he knew better than to argue with me when I used that tone of voice. Together we hauled the heavy trunk down two flights of stairs and into his room since going to the living room in the first floor was going to be tought fo the two of us and i didnt want that bis thing in my room.

As we worked, I couldn't stop thinking about what we'd found. A real magic book? It seemed too crazy to be true...but at the same time, how else could you explain all those detailed diagrams and spells? And why would someone go through so much trouble to hide it away if it wasn't genuine?

"Hey Lucian," I asked as we set the trunk down with a thud. "Do you really think that book is legit?"

He shrugged nonchalantly but there was a gleam in his eye that told me he was just as intrigued as I was. "I dunno sis...but , i will take the book, maybe i can add it to 5e if we found a group to play? ?" he said with a surpisingly sincere smile, i felt it he also lost his friends when we came here and the chat rooms in the computer were slow and honestly not the same.

Whats next?
