this - gave - me - the - creeps ! Seriously, stories of people vanishing inexplicably always held a fascination and horror for me, as I much prefer to know "what happened". So this story is pushing all my buttons and gives me a shudder. And it is so well narrated by you, I was really hooked till the end. I only wish there had been a solution. One must conclude of course that the author of the diary now also vanished so frustrating. A great story though.dg73 wrote: ↑July 1st, 2022, 3:46 pmHere's my contribution to the project;

That is one interesting little 'fragment'. Almost a rosicrucian touch in it.
I have a few small edits to recommend:
> from 7:49 to 7:51: (p. 32) between "of their history" and "February 16" - over two seconds of silence always feels too long for me as listener, could you cut it a bit here please ?
> at 12:33: (p. 34) M. Henri D'Affleur - I would read this as "Monsieur", since he is French, or "Mister" if you prefer, but it's not supposed to be an inital letter for his name
> at 13:35: (p. 34) "by the recent disappearance of M. D'Affleur" - same here, Mister or Monsieur
> at 16:21: (p.35) "or new sounds for his ears" - you say "earn", which doesn't make much sense
> from 22:15 to 22:17: (p. 37) between "to me also" and "May 4" - long pause to be cut a bit
> at 24:04: (p. 38) and was introduced to me as M. Valjean Narpoli" - again: "Mister" or "Monsieur"
> from 32:16 to 32:19: between "answer the question" and "end of section 4" - long pause again
The rest was really flawlessly narrated, thank you so much. It was a treat. Good thing I didn't listen to it before going to sleep though
