Summary of Receipt
Crow, calling himself Solomon, leaves a message to 62. He’s turned into a demon, and managed to preserve his memories temporarily. If he can’t access the Admin Key, whatever that is, in 113 days, he’ll have forgotten his memories, but still. Either way, he says, the beast must feast. (

A Critical Error Has Occurred. Please enter ADMIN system key to reboot…
New System HOST found [CaDCOM95 v.2.1]. Send query…

ENTER HELL?
De Salomon l’honneur et gloire.
Processing HELL for [DE SALOMON L’HONNEUR ET GLOIRE.]…
Process completed. Target [DE SALOMON…] found. Awaiting ADMIN KEY. Time remaining [113 days].
Incoming message from [DE SALOMON…]
So, Salenna, you think this is over? You think that you’ve won? Did you ever consider that in death I grow stronger? Pitiful mortals always fearing their own mortality. Life and death are but a cycle. And in death, the shackles of my humanity are undone. Now my true search begins. I will return. I have made sure of that. Although I may not return the same as I was, as they say, death really changes a man. It seems my final tether to the living world will be fully undone in 113 days if I am unable to enter the Admin Key. Still, though, a marvel, isn’t it? Most daemons would kill to have their human memories even for a paltry hundred days. But even if my memories fade, my path will remain clear. The beast must feast and feast it shall.
Yours post humorously,
CROW.
End message from [DE SALOMON…] [113 days] Remain.
PLEASE INPUT ADMIN KEY BEFORE SYSTEM SHUT DOWN AND DECAY IS INITIATED.
