'''Wilfre's Journal''' is an important book in ''[[Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter (Wii)]]''. It was used by [[Wilfre]] to document his plans to defeat the [[Creator]].

=={{Icon|Tower}} Appearance ==
Wilfre's Journal is inconsistently displayed, and therefore has two different appearances. In both depictions it has gold raised bands on the spine, and seems to have a gold lock on the front.

In-game, Wilfre's Journal is a red, hardcover book that has the name "Wilfre" written on it in ink. It has an ink blotch in the bottom right corner. 

In the cutscenes, Wilfre's journal is a leather book with the name "Wilfre" branded in the front.

=={{Icon|Book}} Story==
Sometime before the events of [[Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter (Wii)]], [[Wilfre]] used this journal to document his plans to defeat the [[Creator]]. It is he kept this journal in [[Wilfre's Lair|his lair]], and after his death, it was found by [[Circi]]. Somehow, a [[Page from Wilfre's Journal]] falls out and is found by [[Jowee]] an the [[Hero]] at the [[Shadow City Outer Walls]].

Some time later, while exploring the [[Shadow Palace]], Jowee and the Hero see a [[Circi|shadowy figure]] running away from them with a book, later revealed to be Wilfre's Journal. After telling this to [[Mari]] and Circi, the two of them send Jowee and the Hero to [[Wilfre's Lair]] to find the journal.

While going through the lair, the Hero comes across a room with a giant ink vat with Wilfre's Journal resting on top of it. When the Hero collects the journal, the vat begins to burst, and [[Shadow]] begins to fill the room. The Hero climbs up the tower, and eventually comes to a clearing. When the shadow gets to the clearing, it comes to a halt, and the [[Boss]] rises out of the shadow. After defeating Boss and collecting the [[Pen and Pencil]], Jowee and the Hero return to [[Rapoville]] to give the journal to Mari.

They read the journal to find out more about Wilfre's plans, learning about the four [[Artifacts of Power]] - the [[Crystal Mask]] they had found in [[Jangala]], the Pen and Pencil they had just collected, the [[Eternal Furnace]] located in the [[Icy Wastes]], and [[Branches from the Tree of Ages]] at the heart of the [[Eastern Winds]]. Jowee realizes that by burning the Branches in the Eternal Furnace, Creation Ink is created, which would allow Wilfre to rival the Creator and redraw the world.

== {{Icon|Trivia}} Trivia ==
* A [[Page from Wilfre's Journal]] can be found in [[Shadow City Outer Walls]].
* When the cutscene version of the journal is open, it shares the sprites of the cover and pages of the book on the main menu and in the introductory cutscene.
* Wilfre's Journal could be seen as a parallel to the [[Mayor's Book]], as they are both books that are used by leaders to document their lives and plans.
