Dear Mother,
I miss you, and I love you. I will become the most powerful Spartan ever. One day, I will come back. And live with you. To protect you. I will keep you from death. I promise. I will come back. Don't worry, Mom. I will destroy the entire Human Fleet if I have to. I love you.
Your Son, John.
