My fourth return didn’t happen for another twenty five years. I’d foolishly believed that if I destroyed Ohwayhee, I could live a normal human life. But now, the rough growth spreading across my chest has shown me otherwise. What I finally came to understand, and what I refused to consider then, is that joining my ancestors would’ve been a magnificent ascension, unlike anything a regular human could ever experience. It would’ve been something wonderful.

I’ve become a better person this past quarter of a century. When I was ready for it, sobriety found me again easily. With my not-quite-human constitution, the drugs never had hold of me the same way they might’ve with others. For years, I’d forced them on myself, yet when I decided I didn’t need them, the physical addiction simply wasn’t present. The years tempered my hate, and a natural wisdom slowly grew upon my blistered soul. The visions of Solomon Longburke stopped long ago, about three years after the man himself died in prison. I’ve made peace with what I’ve done, but I can never forgive myself, nor should anyone else be willing to forgive me, ever.

I’m naked, and I find myself standing here upon the ground that was once Ohwayhee. The land is dead, at least in the sense that it doesn’t talk to me anymore. It doesn’t feel, and it has no knowledge to speak of. Small trees and bushes populate the area, but they’re nothing special. I find a nice sunny spot and survey the land one last time with my human eyes, and a small smile graces my face as I think about what this place once was. I wiggle my feet back and forth to dig them into the dirt, and I can feel them growing down deep into the earth. I raise my arms to the sky. This is the point where I should be hearing a hundred happy salutations, but because of my actions all those years ago, there’s only silence.

I know I may be here alone for a thousand years or more, yet my despair momentarily switches to hope. Maybe, with my return, the earth with come back to life, and a new generation will be spawned forth. But then, I wonder, who’ll be around to rescue them and raise them? Mostly, I think of the man who was supposed to be my son. He’s still out there. I was never able to find him once I actually tried, but that was several years after I abandoned him. He’s made it to adulthood, somehow I can feel that he’s still alive, yet he can’t possibly know his true origin. It’s regrettable that he’s grown up without any sort of roadmap to what he’s supposed to become. He’ll go through this same transition one day too, but it will most likely be a time of terror for him. I focus my thoughts and try to reach out to him. He could be anywhere on Earth, and I simply don’t know if he can hear me.
