Alturiak 1477 -

Until I was thirteen years of age, I didn't know that 'Uncle' Cazador was a vampire - that, indeed, my entire family were vampires, going back generations. Growing up on the Szarr country estate near Anga Vled, raised by old family servants, I rarely visited our city palace in Baldur's Gate. And when I did, I couldn't wait to leave and return to the country. The city palace, straddling the wall between the Upper and Lower City, was more than creepy, it was somehow chilling.

-Amanita Szarr

Notes

• Alturiak is the second month in the Calendar of Harptos.
• This note is dated 1477, which seems to refer to the date it was written. It cannot logically be the month in which the events happened, as the author refers to events that took place over the course of at least a year, and the notes are spaced at most a month apart.
