Darkest Dungeon: Marvin Seo Journal Readings
JessieLove for Euryale (Page from A Lost Diary)
Euryale AKA The Lamia is a complicated character. She has the ability to shift between her human form, a young beautiful woman, and her beast form, a creature of tentacles and horror who can melt the skin off of men. She did some horrible things to keep her beauty and youthfulness, but she can only stay in that form as long as she carries her mirror. She cannot hurt anyone in her human form, only her beast form.
In her diary we read about how she returned to her city of origins and seeing what has changed and what hasn't. She hears about a gladiator ring and a champion that peaks her interest. She goes to attend and sees that the Champion is facing off against the Thrall (A hero of Marvin Seo). The Champion manages to defeat the Thrall, but in a moment of overconfidence, the Thrall gains the upper hand and kills the Champion. The crowd then becomes so upset they riot, while Euryale slips away before the real riot kicks off.
Her personality should come off as self-obsessed and sinister. She is confident that she is the most beautiful and most dangerous person in the room. Like everyone else is beneath her. Almost like an aristocrat or high-born noble. Although she is impressed by the Champion and somewhat horrified by the Thrall, it is a fleeting feeling, she moves on from it when she decides to leave the city.
Any accent will work as long as it is believable and consistent.

(Sound annoyed by everyone talking about this person, and finally interested in seeing this Champion)
I tried to brush off the chatter but as I wandered about, all I heard was more and more of this man's heroic feats. With my interest peaked, I'll be making my way to the gladiatorial ring soon.(Initially sound enamored by the Champion, then sound slightly sinister at the end)
The warrior was the physical embodiment of perfection. His chiseled body told of a man who had seen rigorous battles while his long flowing hair would have many believe he was born from the gods.... He was so perfect that I had reason to believe he had attained his beauty through obscure means, just as I had.
(In a shocked state as she recalls how the Thrall was still alive and killed the Champion)
It all happened so quickly. Our admiration quickly turned to horror as the beast revealed that it was still alive. The creature caught the hero's leg in an iron grip. It pulled the man to the ground and, with its other fist, it slammed down on the champion's face.
