"I have experienced so much over the years, I have no recollection on every memory. But the most important ones are there, still held firmly in my mind. My friends, my family, are all there too. They are one of the reasons why I keep pressing forward and even though I was dying, I was almost about to give up, accept the fate like many others. I did not, I pressed on so to see them again. All of them.
Eagle, James, Henry, Gordon, Duck, Percy, Donald, Douglas, Toby, Bill, Ben, all. I would not have it any different, would never want to replace them.
And that's what frightens me the most because when on that hill, about to give up, I not only remembered something, I learnt something also.
That mankind promised, a took that promise away, laughed at it, scorned it. We all know no living being lasts forever, but for us to go out like this? In fear, in terror, in our youth? That is what I've learnt these recent times, that mankind cannot be trusted, for if they promise to not take away a family as of mines again, then suddenly turn their backs as they create the machines that swore to destroy. To kill, to murder us and for me to retaliate like that, for me to go down that path again.
What is the point, of trusting a human being again?"
