I haven't had time to write. I've been frantically searching for any indication that the creature has ever uttered a single sylable before now. Trying to find the answer to questions such as, why are we researching him? The Company told us they discovered the creature in the Alps but the more I try to understand it all, the less likely it seems. There has been a change in the monster too. As the days go by, it seems his countenance resembles a man more than a snake. I put it in my report for the supervisors. They're going to evaluate him soon they've replied. I left out the fact that he spoke though. Why I did this I can't exactly reason out. It's just that every time I start to add those words that I barely believe myself, I tell myself that I imagined it all. On top of that I would have to betray myself and tell The Company the truth about my lies. Because my birthday isn't the only thing that's false in their records.
