[Spoilers] Amnesia Plot

[jthornbury]

I've beaten the game, got all three endings and managed to open supersecret.rar, but I still have some questions:

Spoiler below!

I never found the diary page explaining what happened to Daniel in the tomb when he first found the orb. What happened?

What was Alexander? He's been alive for centuries, apparently, and at the end he talks about returning home.

There's some sort of sub-plot about Alexander having a wife or girlfriend or something? What were the details?

What exactly were the orbs?

What was the Darkness, and how did it relate to the orbs?

How did Agrippa's student manage to acquire so many orbs without being destroyed by the Darkness?

It would be greatly appreciated if one of the developers would take the time to write out the background plot of the game in detail (i.e. the ideas underlying it and the events that happened before the game). I realise that you've probably given enough details to piece it together from multiple playthroughs (i.e. hunting down all the letters and notes), but frankly I don't have the time to go through the game again from the start.
