"Father God, I do not accept this letter. Moreover, I will not accept that Roman is dead. I don't think all the information in this letter is false, for he has snuck out of his room and slept out more times than I can remember. However, I know my brother. Not as well as You, of course, but I know he isn't smart enough to write, let alone express himself with such vim. Therefore, cover me as I go search for him. I do not have a plan, but I also do not have a dead body. If there is no body, then Roman is not dead. I plan to leave with the money I borrowed from Benjamin's wallet last week. It was all a ploy to teach him a lesson since he doesn't believe in banks, and keep his entire savings in that thing. It should be enough to last 40 days. I pray you help me find him. I will leave as soon as the guards have gone to sleep. I know you love all and don't discriminate, so please keep watch over my Father and Mother.
You're better than the rest of us. I will not forgive them if they played any part in his disappearance. Amen."
The End.
