We followed the string of strange disappearances here, to the village of Dromgoole. We knew something bad awaited us, but we weren't prepared to find the entire village lost. \n\nGeneral Carvalho is taking it very hard. Dromgoole was his hometown, and the faces of these shambling corpses must be familiar to him. But there's still no sign of the missing people. \n\nWait. I can hear singing coming from inside the church. Perhaps there's still someone left to save.

Investigation

As soon as we set foot inside the church, the singing stopped. No sign of the missing people, or anyone else. Who was singing? \n\nThe Lost seem to have fallen back, at least. We can establish a temporary command center here.

Sanctuary?

General Carvalho hasn't slept for three days. His rage seems to be the only thing driving him. He slaughters two hundred Lost a day, but they keep coming back, growing more bold. We've barricaded the doors and windows. \n\nI haven't slept either, but for a different reason. Every time I close my eyes, I hear the singing. Many voices, singing the same melody that drew us to this church. When I wake, they fall silent. \n\nI haven't told this to anyone. General Carvalho needs my support, not my formless worries. I just need to get this song out of my head, somehow.

Earworm

The dead claw at our barricades. Sleep deprivation weakens our resolve. All except General Carvalho, who always swore that he would never become Lost. \n\nToday, we finally found out the true extent of his resolve. To save his soul from being Lost, he sold it to Corruption instead. How many years has he spent preparing for this final stand? \n\nNow the nightmare is in here with us, roaring rage at the Lost outside. He's tearing down our barricades to get at them. \n\nIt's so hard to think. The singing has started again, rising up from under the ground. Am I asleep, or awake?
