What they need are some nice pointy daggers like the ones the senior heretics carry. He’s already convinced a few cultists to side with him, but they’re unarmed novices. That sounds like a good idea, since I do need one of her eyes and that may be harder to get while she’s alive. Luckily this cat-man is an ambitious heretic, and he has a plan to overthrow Ciirta, who is their leader. The disguise serves us well, until we cross paths with one of the heretics who notices that Alice is still wearing the same extravagant hat she wears everywhere. The difference is, I make this look good.

Now the Howling Halls are inhabited by heretic cultists who, like all cultists, conveniently leave some of their spare robes lying around. Because they love irony as much as they love moping, inhabitants of Dementia stole the temple brick by brick and reassembled it here in the Shivering Isles, where everybody’s insane and nobody gets cured. Those Halls were once an temple in the real world where the insane were brought to be cured. It belongs to Ciirta, who lives in The Howling Halls.

What kind of a man would want to know everything? You can call that perfect order if you like, but I think it just sounds fussy. Dyus was once Jyggalag’s librarian, which is why he knows essentially everything there is to know. It’s actually just one man, a servant of order named Dyus who was imprisoned here by Sheogorath. The great library of Knifepoint Hollow isn’t that great, and it isn’t really a library either. (A good tea party would be more exciting, that’s all I’m saying.) The only way to prevent it is for Alice to stop unsuccessfully trying to throw a tea party long enough to create a staff of office so she can replace the Prince of Madness as ruler of the Isles. Then Jyggalag took over Sheogorath’s body so he could begin the cyclical destruction of the Shivering Isles called the Greymarch.

In part seven of this diary, Alice discovered that Sheogorath (the prince of madness) and Jyggalag, (the god of order) were actually the same person, a twist so shocking it could be used as electroconvulsive therapy. Alice’s Adventures In The Shivering Isles: Part 8
