8/19 - Movement through idleness
My studies have not involved as much travel as I would have hoped given the time since I have last logged; Despite this much progress has been made. I consider my studies on the Crimson Lycan to be almost completed from an observational standpoint, the environment has changed and the way to study the subject will be amended to reflect as such.

Subject: The Pedagogue
A proper instructor has been found, one that is much more agreeable than The Associate to the proper progress of my research. As per the agreement I have made with them any research I may or may not have had has been removed from my records. I will be aiding them in various tasks they require in return for aid in my projects as well as founds for increasing my spell knowledge. They stretch my mind more than any I have met before, this arrangement will be most beneficial

Question: How do we stabilize negative energy in a living body without killing it?
Proposition: Preserve the organs first
Test: Partial mummification
[A drawing of a human chest cavity is scribbled in, certain organs being removed and diagrams of how to properly preserve them in oils, salts and wrappings]
A study of further subjects needs to be found. Of parts studied for my first creation I have decided on the arm and head. The Crimson Lycan provides the basis for the arm and the head and mind of a man provides for the central control of the design. I must look in to locomotion of the entire project, perhaps a design from arthropods for added stability and mobility? Further research before a proper proposal can be presented
