I like the meta-meta-story! Very cool.
If that Inquisitor wanted to really keep me from reading it, he should've just ended the note with like "banana banana banana banana..." maybe 500 times or so. I wouldn't have actually read that. Just a tip for future Inquisitors who want to trap lexidaemons!
It would be a good idea if the Human Inquisition put together some standard operating procedures for the proper sealing of lexidaemons. I think the "banana banana banana" protocol is a great recommendation. Maybe some guidelines about not taking notes from daemons and putting them in your journal as well.
This was fun! Absolutely loved this entry. You nailed the theme and did it with incredible creativity and style.
Most original approach of all the writing jams so far while maintaining the theme - and the polite sign-off is bravo!
Absolutely love this idea. Breaking the mold both in style and 4rth wall really sets this story apart. I also commend you for keeping faithful to the new lore. I'm glad the change archdemon can format a letter correctly LOL.
