Transcript
To whoever may find this note - may the Lord bless you and absolve your sins, for you are most defiantly worthier of divine help than I ever was... I have sinned by trying to achieve more than was ever expected of me, and I was punished for my folly. I should have exterminated the electrical demon as my penance commanded and my holy tools allowed me to, but I gave in to the sin of lust for greater glory and decided to lure it into this lair of the beastmen...

The demon killed the godawful beasts, but now I can neither approach it nor escape this place which now must become my grave. My only regret is that my bones will remain here instead of being consumed by the Tsar-Fish cleansing my soul of sins, forever denying me right of passage through the Heavenly Gates, unless the faithful take pity on me one day and take them to the House of the Fish...

In prayer for this I shall spend the remainder of my time in this mortal coil.

Yuri S.,

An unworthy servant of our Lord
