TO LENKA
[Lenka's letter is found on wherever the cat tank decided to sleep, neatly folded.
It reads:]
Lenka,
If you're reading this, then I've died. I probably had enough time to place this somewhere you'd find it, and I already told you I might die earlier this week.
I know you didn't like it - you didn't want to sacrifice me - but in the end, sometimes...you can't get what you want.
[...]
You've probably read my letter by now - you already knew I was a reaper, but not any of the rest of it. I would have told you, but...it's heavy stuff, you know? And I didn't feel like burdening you with my past.
But...I wanted you to know that I'm so happy I got to meet you. You're - the closest thing I've had to a best friend in a long, long time. You remind me of - my best friend, Chad. He was a great guy - kind of quiet - but always there whenever you needed him. You're a lot like him, in a lot of ways - kind, selfless, reliable - and it's helped me a lot to know that you were always looking out for me.
I never...let myself get that close to players in a long time. Even here, most of the people I got attached to were Reapers - but you just kept coming back, and I...
...I'm so grateful, to you. For not giving up on me. For - even if it was just a little while - letting me be someone's friend again, instead of the Reaper that kills them.
..I know...that you'll be able to keep going on. I know that you have the strength to - I've seen it - and I wish you nothing but the best. I already asked you to keep Akira safe, but...I want you to keep yourself safe, and don't join me. Live as long as you can - get your second chance - and make it back to where you come from.
Goodbye, Lenka. Thank you.
