"[after lighting a candle] Jonathan Brisby was killed today while helping with the Plan. It is four years since our departure from NIMH, and our world is changing. We cannot stay here much longer. [Writing in a book] Jonathan was a dear friend. I am lost in knowing how to help his widow. She knows nothing of us or the Plan. [Reloading ink for pen] Perhaps best that I do nothing at present. [As he quickly writes signature] I shall miss him. [Holding and looking at amulet] Jonathan, wherever you are, your thoughts must comfort her tonight. She'll be waiting, and you will not return. [as he puts away amulet in a case, closing it] Farewell, my friend."
