centuries. I’ll feel the flames of redemption around me. All I hope is that this letter will reach
the one who’ll inherit the soul that once resided in this body of mine. I wish to tell them that
any evil that once resided in my heart is no more; and that their life will be blameless and
good. But this will not stop the torment they feel for the past incarnations of the soul we
share. When they touch and read this letter, they’ll know everything of me and who I was, as
though they were me. I will finish there and go get some sleep, before tomorrow - the last day
of my life as Jack Lauraine…when I die in Patches Field. Where a single poppy will
remember my end.

I leave this letter to you ‘Jitters’ Moderski, my dearest and closest friend. Keep it safe. Ruby
will know what to do with it, when the time comes.”
