You turned me into this… A chimera made of stone with wires for hair and half my soul melded with a demon. Or at least that's what I like to tell myself. I know, deep inside, that those weren't your actions nor your intent. It was that demon Shabranigdu who did it. And thanks to my beloved wife, I've come to understand and…forgive you for it. Yes I know, I've been a fool. You know, I never really hated you; I couldn't find it in myself to do so. The man who raised me with all the love and caring he possessed, he couldn't do something like this to his beloved great-grandson. And for years I was too selfish and bitter to realize that. I want to thank my friends, my Amelia, for beating it into my stone skull. And I want to thank you, Gramps. For raising me to become the man I am today. I also want to say…I'm sorry
I was so wrapped up in my loneliness, I forgot about yours.
You deserve all the forgiveness I have to offer.
I don't deserve yours, but you gave it to me anyway.
I love you, I hope you know that.
