During the aforementioned mission, the Hero must infiltrate the final resting place of Springheel Jak in search of his legendary boots, which were buried with his body 300 years ago. Upon opening his tomb, the Hero finds that there are no such boots, but there is a diary. The diary of Springheel Jack has five entries written by the postmortem Springheel Jak. These entries document his transformation when he contracted vampirism and multiple entries detailing his rediscoveries of said diary. These entries show his progressive gain of control over his thirst for blood.
