William: You were the one person in my life I wanted to emulate when I grew up. I worshipped you like a hero, as only a young boy truly can. I loved you. Then you left Helwater. Left me. And as you rode away, you never even looked back. I am your son. I didn't know it then, but you did. How could you leave me? Jamie: I loved you too. But I had nothing to give you. No name, no money, no land. I was a Jacobite. A traitor... I ken you'd be condemned to a life of pain. So... did what I thought best. I left. And no, I... dinna dare look back, lest the sight of your face shatter my resolve. I've regretted it for years...I ken the pain it caused you, discovering the truth, and the manner in which it was revealed. For that, I am deeply sorry. And I hope you can forgive me.
