     Hey... If you’re reading this, well... Something’s happened. This file in particular, is for if I’ve somehow lost control of my own actions, be that through possession, mind control, or some other means of manipulation. I’m sorry to tell you this, but due to certain circumstances of my existence and my powers, this is likely irreversible. This specific contingency, codenamed Strings, means that I am on some level still conscious, and was able to slip at least one person the relevant keyphrase. That’s good, it means I probably won’t immediately kill you without being able to stop myself. I’m not saying it will be easy, but I will be needing you to kill me, in all likelihood.      To that end, I’ve prepared a weapon. You’ll need to tell Eve that you require the use of Rose’s Thorn. You must tell her exactly that and only that, as it’s a keyphrase to release a mental block I put in her mind when she walked in on me making preparations. Then... well, you’ll need to do what you must with what you find where she leads you. I hope I can trust you to do this for me, and I’m sorry to ask it of you. I can only hope you’ll forgive me for this...
