The Baron of the island of Grislith.
The chaplin feels that he has gone mad, and commented that his family has always had nervous dispositions. He had gotten worse around six years ago, and then again four years ago when his first wife died. His temperament has gotten less contained over the past 3-4 years, though he doesn’t seem to be unfit for office.
There are disturbing dreams going around the household: those of Grislith being replaced with a hole, monstrous creatures writhing within the hole.
