To: Arista
Arista, I love you, I love you, I love you. I don't know if you will ever see this, but just know that you'll always have a place in my heart, whether I remember you or not.
The Republic is harsh and cunning. I have learnt this the hard way, and I hope that you won't. Find your father, he will save you from them. The Republic knows about your mental capabilities. They know how you can shut down simulations. They know how you can manipulate them. They know how you can resist serums, the memory serum to be exact. They are coming for you. They want you gone.
I love your recklessness, Arista, but please, don't come to save me. I love you.

Teresa
"Are you sure your daughter won't come to find you?" William asked, his gaze surprisingly inquisitive.
"She won't," Teresa said, her jaw set. "I believe it."
He smiled gently, like a parent consoling a child. "Really? Even when she knows you're alive?"
Teresa fell silent. William adjusted the syringe needle, polishing it with an antiseptic. "I thought so."
"I really hope she doesn't come to save you. That would be a shame, losing all her talents within the simulation." William sighed, stroking the syringe with his index finger.
"You're not like this," Teresa whispered. "You've changed."
"Funny you'd say that." William raised an eyebrow. "You've changed a lot as well."
Teresa's eyes narrowed. William laughed. "Oh, lighten up, Teresa. It's only for a while. At least, I hope so."
Maintaining a wide grin, he inserted the needle into her neck. Teresa stiffened, her knuckles whitening.
Then, her eyes rolled to the back of her head, her body slack. Outside, the memory serum continued diffusing, surrounding the Republic in an icy embrace.
