Journal #4

            Mr. Dimmesdale is still under my watch. He isn’t getting any better as long as I continue to care for him. I continue to toy with his mind. I want Dimmesdale to suffer. I feel the urge too; I must know what he knows. Dimmesdale is the luminary to Hester. With his knowledge, I can exert my revenge. I am getting to the zenith of my tempers, though, for he hasn’t revealed anything to me yet. His pulpit remains shut. However, I believe I am making progress. His sermons continue to be more and more powerful on the subject of sin. Soon, I hope he will reveal his sins to me.

            I know Mr. Dimmesdale resents me, but he is still subject to my will. I see how it is tearing him apart, how he blames himself for his suffrages. I found Dimmesdale recently upon a scaffold. A convinced him that it was his sleepwalking that lead him to be in such a position. I suspect that he had been conversing with Hester, which make me rather suspicious of the relationship between the two. Though, that next day, I saw Dimmesdale give his most powerful sermon yet. I suspect that he will break soon. The guilt of his sins will let loose.
