The Statues

I can't help but fear them. When we first got attacked by them and Alastor was turned to stone, it struck a deep fear in my heart. He was fine in the end, but I worried for him the entire time. The second time we were attacked I almost fell to them several times, but my friends were able to save me and we defeated them. The third time, we should have been more vigilant. Apollo was trapped in a room with some monster and had to fight it alone until the Captain and I were able to break the door down, but the monster disappeared and Apollo was turned to stone. Egg was able to bring him back, but he had no idea what had attacked him. I felt despair in that place, and great fear, but it only makes me want to know what that creature is so that I might kill it myself. I nearly lost both Alastor and Apollo to these statues, and whatever is creating them is to blame. I don't like the ruins, but they are the key to finding out what I need to know. I think it is only a matter of time until someone else falls to them, and I fear that I won't be around to help.
 
This factory, or prison, if it were up to me we would knock it to the ground. I can't believe it was made for a good purpose if they were turning children to stone.
