I did not kill Captain Flint. I unmade him. The man you know could never let go of his war. For if he were to exclude it from himself, he would not be able to understand himself. So I had to return him to an earlier state of being. One in which he could function without the war. Without the violence. Without us. Captain Flint was born out of great tragedy. I found a way to reach into the past… and undo it. There is a place near Savannah where men unjustly imprisoned in England are sent in secret…
Thomas Hamilton was there.
Fruit, fruit…
“ Thomas Hamilton was there.
[Flint] disbelieved me. He continued to resist. And corralling him took great effort.
But the closer we got to Savannah, his resistance began to diminish.
Perhaps he’d finally reached the limits of his physical ability to fight.
Or perhaps as the promise of seeing Thomas got closer…
he grew more comfortable letting go of this man he created in response to his loss. ”
THEY TOOK EVERYTHING FROM US. AND THEN THEY CALLED ME A MONSTER. THE MOMENT I SIGN THAT PARDON, THE MOMENT I ASK FOR ONE, I PROCLAIM TO THE WORLD THAT THEY WERE RIGHT. THIS ENDS WHEN I GRANT THEM MY FORGIVENESS. NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND.
He will stop at nothing to ensure that this plan never sees the light of day. And now you’re in the line of fire.
These past few months I have come to trust you. Very much.
