My Carla...
You were so full of life, always laughing, talking...
Why did you love me, I wonder..
I never knew what to say, but with you, it wasn't necessary..
Only with you was I ever truly happy.
I never got a chance to...
I have many stories to tell, but I keep them to myself.
Because the only person I want to share them with, can no longer hear me..
When you told me that we were having a child, I couldn't have been happier.
I had you, I had the dream of a family.
After everything I had seen and done, I finally had peace...
And then you were gone...
Taken...
I knew someone had betrayed you, us...
I tracked down your captors, but when I found you...
I was too late...
I saw you through my scope.
You looked ragged, dirty, pained.
I knew what they had done, what they would still do.
You stood there between others, money passing hands...
I felt torn, the distance between us too great, and those Legion bastards everywhere...
I couldn't bear the thought of you in their hands.
You looked beautiful, as always.
I knew what must be done.
As I aimed, I took in your face for the last time, drinking in all the details..
And then you were no more...
What had I done?
I granted the last gift...
I committed the ultimate betrayal...
My heart, my soul, my peace of mind, shattered like glass.
My soul, frozen by what I'd done...
I met someone, Carla, someone who helped me get my vengeance.
The Courier found out that the inn keeper sold you and our baby to the Legion.
Into slavery..
I killed her. The least I could do for you.
I traveled with the Courier and got the chance to redeem myself for what I'd done...
To you... and at Bitter Springs..
Together the Courier and I killed many of the Legion, we defended the NCR, the Hoover Dam, and the people.
I hope you're proud of me Carla.
And more than anything, I hope that you forgive me.
That you understand why I chose this last resort...
I know that my life is coming to an end.
Ever since I lost you, I've been walking at the edge of the abyss.
I was lost without you and I was found.
The Courier helped me make my peace with my past.
And gave me a new purpose..
Now I have done all I could, my duty is fulfilled..
I feel your hand clasping mine.
Soon we will be reunited my love.
I hear your voice, calling me into the darkness...
