Letter A Farewell, from One Who Stayed Loyal.

[ramen]

You find a sealed envelope, addressed to nobody.
You open it up, and take a look at the note...
It appears to be the final goodbye of a long dead man.



"Hello. If you are reading this note, I'm no longer with you.
My name was Ulysses Nathius, and I am saddened to say, I was loyal.

Through hardships, struggles, and pain beyond measure, I stayed subservient.
Like one of Pavlov's dogs, I came running to bend to the every whim of the Combine.
I hurt some around me, shunned those who wanted best for humanity, and defiled the name of those who tried their best.
I cared not for them, but for only of myself. Even now, I still care for myself above all.

Would I do it again? No.

I was a coward, I was afraid to join the fight.
I never thought myself strong enough to stand up to this extra-dimensional empire.
I wish time and time again that I could go back, and change that fault.
Change the... One issue that severed me from the rest of humanity.
I can never truly atone.

I served the Combine, and it lead me no where.
So, if you're reading this message. I plead to you.

Do not stay loyal.

Rebel. Fight. Win.
Do not let the foot of the oppressor stomp out the flame of rebellion, like it did to me.

Please, for the good of humanity. Resist.
This has been Ulysses Nathius. Tried, true, and unfortunately, loyal.
Hopefully... We'll meet again."

The last line of the note reminds you of a song you think you once heard...
