Subject: Regarding the Mutton Man from the Dream Board
Attention everyone,
If you've looked through the recent Dream Board, you may have seen a quest regarding an entity referring to itself as the "Mutton Man" and is involved with slaughtering sheep and harming others. Nier and I have encountered a similar figure in the recent dreamscape during Halloween, the one the tapirs are calling a "dreamshift." It appeared around the witch's hut and we weren't able to determine if it was related to what happened that night or not. It was a formidable adversary, capable of inhuman speed, strength, and defense. We were able to destroy it, but the similarities are concerning.
Regardless if it was brought in from the dreamscape or something separate, take extreme caution when engaging with it.
[The handwriting quickly shifts from the straightforward, neat handwriting to WHAT'S NIER'S HANDWRITING LIKE LMAO]
The "Mutton Man" wasn't messing around and he's dangerous! Please be careful if you see him. I don't want anyone to get hurt. Eustace is right when he says the Mutton Man's really strong. Somehow we managed to fend him off, but I don't think it's over. The Mutton Man said so himself!!
[It can't be seen, but Eustace is side-eying Nier who just rudely barged in.]
As Nier said, its final words along with its disturbing rhyme were "This isn't over" and "Everything has an ending." Whether it's the ravings of an insane creature or a warning has yet to be determined. Given what Soldier: 76 stated in his recent entry regarding the Erasers and the Story Eater, however, I am beginning to wonder if they might be related. When it was destroyed, it turned into paper and black ink. If you fight and manage to damage the one here, take note of what kind of injuries it sustains.
[Nier pauses for a moment because he's going to say something that sounds absolutely ridiculous.]
The Mutton Man left behind something after we destroyed it! You might not believe me, but it was a moon cake! Please don't ask me why it was a moon cake. I'm just saying what I saw. [Here have a brilliant illustration by Nier:]
[And then there's another beautiful illustration that appears soon after (also by Nier).]
...That was supposed to be Nier's attempt at the Mutton Man, but it looked more like this: [Have Eustace's attempt.]
[And that's how the message ends because at this point Eustace is probably criticizing Nier as they argue how the Mutton Man looked like.]
[ooc: Do you know the Mutton Man—anyway, joint post with Eustace and Nier! Nier's writing is in blue, and yes we doodled those crying. Eustace is default font and Nier is the blue. Both are available for responses! As indicated, this post is backdated a couple of days to be earlier in the week.]

I wasn't about to go eat the thing, but I assume it's edible? I mean it's a cake.
The slaughtering of sheep was really bad. I don't know what the guy has against them.
no subject
Maybe this mutton guy's an insomniac who counting sheep didn't work for. Being tired would make anyone cranky.
[She's kidding. Mostly. Given where they're at, trying tactics like singing a rampaging butcher to sleep doesn't seem all that odd.]
no subject
I know I hate wasting things too. Would you actually eat it though?
no subject
[It's such lax food hygiene standards that probably contribute to her questionable cooking skills, honestly.]
no subject
Eating something like that might make you sick.
Just be careful if you see anything resembling the mutton man and take care out there. I don't know if you can fight, but it's better to be safe.

[Mostly because she had literal divine help preventing the worst culinary mistakes for years, and lately she has begun to learn some attempts are best relegated to the trash bin.]
I appreciate the concern though, so thanks! It's good of you to warn everybody about this food freak.
no subject
[He smiles a little because he's happy to share his findings with others. Nier has always liked helping people. ]
It'll be okay as long as we look out for each other.
