All They Didn't Know

Chapter 10

"Yeah," I laugh nervously, "he kinda has,"

"Look Callie." Joseph gives me a serious look. "I'm telling you this because the governments have done their people wrong, ever since 1780. In more general ways like I have told you today, and in more personal ways, like what Jayden Darcy has told you.

Can you remember the last thing she said?"

"What," I whisper

"She said that unlike a lot of things in the Proud War, many people - like her beloved brother Jake - have given their lives for good. And then she said - and I quote - 'that, I believe, should never be forgotten'."

I look at him.

"There were millions of Jayden Darcys at the end of the war. It was fate that made me discover those files on your father's desk, and I always thought my fate was to give those people justice. Now I've discovered my time has run out. The authorities will find me soon.

So it's up to you, Callie.

I've told you everything.

Now you have to work out what to do with it.

It's like I wrote, Callie.

I know you won't let me down."
