Unspeakable

Player Handout 2

You have a found a small diary. The leather cover looks like it has been stabbed with a blade, and many
pages are torn out. However, you can piece back together the final entries in the book. The diary is
written entirely in French.

March 24th-
They plan to attempt to steal the amulet found in Napoleon’s Catalogue. I cannot believe it. It
will be an ambitious job. Perhaps their most ambitious yet. Once they have broken into the
Louvre, their names will go down in history. But it makes sense, the security is very light. Most
people would not dream of breaking into it, because of its sheer reputation.

March 25th-
They tell me that they plan to steal the amulet they were hired by at least seven different
interested parties. What a story! I’ve heard of two employers for a job, but five? Incredible.
Apparently, they are all eccentric collectors who don’t want to be out bid at the auction. So
they’re paying moneyto bid on it again? Absolutely incredible.

March 26th-
Well, I saw them pouring over the maps of the Louvre. They’ve made their mark, now. The job
will go down tonight. Meanwhile, I’ve been very busy, trying to set up this underground auction.
I’ve found an old warehouse in the 15th district. It’s the perfect location.

March 27th-
All is going according to plan. They have achieved their goal! Tomorrow, we will hold the
underground auction. The auction time has been set for midnight; a bit dramatic, but I think it
adds to the mystique of the event. That is what our employers want anyway. I am going to be
a rich man!
