I have been fascinated by a peculiar piece of furniture I discovered in storage: A strange box with a removable dial in the front that was confiscated from a worker some time ago. I was instantly drawn to it, though I’m not sure why. When I put my ear on the mechanism, I can hear it faintly clicking, like a clock.

Had to go down the mining site today for the scheduled inspection. We're still waiting for that new LSTR unit we ordered - the shipment was delayed by several cycles - but the excavation progress is still on schedule, so it shouldn’t be a problem as long as no more staff gets sick.

I finally managed to open that strange box. Sadly, all it contained was a small notebook, of which all pages turned out to be blank. For some reason, I feel like I somehow knew beforehand, as if I had already opened the box before. Did I dream it?

Apparently, there's more rumors of an infectious disease spreading among the Gestalt workers. Could it be another flu outbreak? The timing is quite concerning...

Another diary filled, for no benefit but my own satisfaction. I've not ordered a new one yet, since I spent my saved Rationmarks on that marvelous-looking fountain pen, but I guess I'll make use of that notebook...
