   I completely understand if you've come across this document in another future and are confused by the context of what I'm speaking about in this report. While awaiting for results from the trial, I finally feel that sudden weight that comes with the territory of being a journalist. And for that I wish to release some of my own thoughts on what I've come to understand through Professor Violet's experiment; for my sanity and yours. By sharing these conclusions with you, I understand that I am breaking federal law. My hope for you, the reader, is that my efforts have not been done in vain and you understand the depth of my decision.

Biology tells us that our animal instincts span far beyond the means of innate fear. Take a look at any organism roaming the earth and the cosmos. One may think we are very different, but in fact, we are more alike than unalike. Think of procreation, for example. Where we pass our genetic information down to the next generation in our lineage. Preserving our species as well as our heredity. Yet within humankind's sentience lies other instincts; we call them an assortment of names like denial, revenge, or greed. Scientists have written for centuries about its affect on civilization, and how they will all lead to its collapse. I guess I wrote all of this to say that our second most strongest instinct is to identify home. Not always a physical one, as one might assume. But perhaps in our mind, or in other people. As far as we may stray, the pull is strong nonetheless. Sometimes we must leave simply to return home. And he taught us that.
