Did you think we would forget? That we would let you live? We have finally found you. And we will be with you very soon. My father will be avenged, and I have sent him to you to witness your fear for himself. Prepare yourself, General Stewart.

The note was unsigned. But it didn’t need to be. The time had come.

I threw both note and skull in the fire, Clara, and I smashed it with a poker until the skull cracked and crumbled, and I let it burn and stoked the flames higher until the room was heavy with smoke, and all the wood was gone. And then I doused the flames and swept the ashes into the dustbin. You remarked on the foul smell when you came home that night, but I sent you to bed with a kiss and told you not to worry.

And I hope you never have to, Clara. I hope they spare you and the girls whatever fate they have in store for me. You don’t deserve it, though you know by now that I probably do. Just know that I love you, and that I did what I could to keep these things from you, and I will not let them dishonour you now. I do not intend to go down without a fight. You are armed now with all the information I can give you. You can find a way to keep it out of the papers. I love you, dearest. I always will. Think well of me, if you can.
