The Awakening

[RAL]

Attached Below is the record and recordings of Doctor Nimbles
The dates seem to be missing and scratched out intentionally




Session 1
Date:

Doctor: Nimbles

A patient named Solari has been brought in today, he seems to be suffering from a Dissociative identity disorder at first glance. Patient uses the word "We" a lot as if he is refering to someone else in the room.

I have been assigned to his case, but it is late tonight and I will get a start on it tomorrow



Session 2
Date:

Doctor: Nimbles

Further examination into Solari's records reveal some disturbing things. There has been several warrants issued for his arrest for apparent "Cannibalism". His birth records are incomplete, but it says here he was born on Planet Crete. The city is not mentioned so I beleive he must of been born in some village in the outskirts of any town, and since cannibalism has not been practiced there for several generations it had to be that of a exiled colony perhaps. The facts are unknown, the patient refuses to have any open conversation. I will begin shock treatments tuesday to see how the patient responds.



Session 3
Date:

Doctor: Nimbles

The patient did not respond well to the shock treatment. He managed to tear loose one of his bindings and bite a descent size chunk out of poor nurse shellys ear. We have not found the peice of ear yet, we think he might of eaten it. The patient has now been confined to a mouth guard to keep him from biting any staff again.

On a side note, the patient seemed to show remarkable strength, almost inhuman for all the medication he is dosed up with. I have requested that the dosage of his meds be increased.



Session 4
Date:

Doctor: Nimbles

The patient does not seem to respond to verbal conversation at all. I beleive there are two identities conflicting with each other his the patients mind, that of himself and another one that he seems to refer to as the "Beast". Verbal treatment is out of the question, as he already injured a staff and this other personality responds very violently to any social engagement. Saturday we will begin with ice water treatment.



Session 5
Date:

Doctor: Nimbles

The patient Solari is unresponsive to any of the treatment, his aggression has died down but I sense that it is not from the treatment at all. The ice water treatment did not phase him at all. He seems to have withdrawn himself all together from the world. I beleive the only way for him to be successfully cured is for one personality to win the battle for his body. I have cancled all treatments.



Session 6
Date:

Doctor: Nimbles

I have begun a more close research into his history, I am not totally convinced that this is a Identity disorder somethings just not right. Patient has not left his room and seems to be a empty shell.



Session 7
Date:

Doctor: Nimbles

Below I have attached a copy of all my research of the history of cannibalism along with various pictures that turned up in my research. I have no recorded history of cannibalism on Crete, so I dug back as far as planet Sol.



Cannibalism (from Can?balis, the Spanish name for the Carib people, a West Indies tribe well known for their practice of cannibalism), also called anthropophagy, is the act or practice of humans eating the flesh of other human beings.

The term "cannibalism" is also used in zoology to mean the act of any species consuming members of its own type or kind. The expression "cannibalization" is in addition used metaphorically outside of biological fields to refer to the reuse of parts or ideas or to situations such as when a company's assets eat into its other assets.

Cannibalism has recently been both practiced and fiercely condemned in several wars, especially in Liberia and Congo. Today, the Korowai are one of very few tribes still believed to eat human flesh. It is also still known to be practiced as a ritual and in war in various Melanesian tribes.

Cannibalism was widespread in the past among humans throughout the world, continuing into the 19th century in some isolated South Pacific cultures. Fiji was once known as the 'Cannibal Isles'. Neanderthals are believed to have practiced cannibalism, and they may have been cannibalized by modern humans.


The reasons for cannibalism include the following:

As sanctioned by a cultural norm
By necessity in extreme situations of famine
Caused by insanity or social deviancy
Note that cannibalism is not mentioned in the formal index of insanity, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, presumably due to its rarity. The medical literature on the topic is likewise sparse. This was discussed in a 2004 edition of the newspaper column The Straight Dope headed "Eat or be eaten: Is cannibalism a pathology as listed in the DSM-IV?."
There are fundamentally two kinds of cannibalistic social behavior; endocannibalism (eating humans from the same community) and exocannibalism (eating humans from other communities).

A separate ethical distinction can be made to delineate between the practice of killing a human for food (homicidal cannibalism) versus eating the flesh of a person who was already dead (necro-cannibalism).

Note that, endocannibalism (eating humans from the same community) and exocannibalism (eating humans from other communities) are both expressed by the patient. I am not entirely sure about these places specified but I am trying to learn as much as I can about the ancient history of planet Sol, perhaps it can shed some light on the patient... some very much needed light. I am afraid to go down that hall after-hours.

Warning Picture may be disturbing..

Tomorrow is my day off, this patient is a handful. I shall continue my sessions upon my return.
