After saying my final farewells to my dear Flora, as well as Professor Layton and his young apprentice, it became apparent to me that in the end, the professor never found the treasure for me.

Professor Layton, I hope you know I am greatly displeased with your service and the check I will send you will reflect on that.

In other news, I am afraid to say that my dear Claudia has gone missing again. I have sent off all the servants in search for her, as well as Simon and Gordon. I am awaiting her in the manor, which I have to admit, is a bit lonesome. After my husband's death, running this manor has taken quite it's toll on me. I do not think I am used to this stress. Also.. I feel as though after saying good bye to dear Flora something has left me. I cannot pin point exactly what it is, but it feels as though I am becoming less human-like. Unfortunately, I do not think even finding Claudia could fix this.

I suppose I'll solve a puzzle and then go off to bed. It's unfortunate that Professor Layton isn't here to solve them for me.

Sincerely,

Lady Dahlia.
