Sins of the father, and all. Jesus. How could -- I mean, I know Silent Hill was messed up, believe me, but how could it be worse than killing your own kid? How could anything?

[It comes back to Harry, of course -- everything does, for Heather, sooner or later -- but there's nothing more important than family, whether it's the one you're born into or the kind you build around you. Nothing.

Dad killed him. I know he never thought of it this way, but it ruined his life. We had to pack everything up and keep moving. I mean, I guess you can write anywhere, but I don't remember him ever having a girlfriend. Or friends, even. He gave everything up to keep me safe and all I had to do was go blonde and change my name.

I'm sorry you didn't have that, Alex. I know it's not my fault, but I'm sorry anyway.
