It is my hope that you don't read the name on this and simply throw it out.
The age the train lists with your name is not that of a child, but closer to what I assume is my own age. Based on the tales Even tells me of his experiences and what it's done to him, I can only imagine the things that have been done to you in the future. I do not expect anything I write here can mitigate any of it, as at best it is the writing of an enemy, at worst 'clearly' some trick meant to decieve you as I am certain has happened before.
However as I am tired of being accosted at random by strangers and accused of things I have yet to do, knowing that is pending from someone I did once know leads me to attempt to disarm such a situation somewhat, even if I don't, and can't, know the man you grew to become.
I propose we meet in person. If nothing else, to see if any uncontrollable reaction of fear and hatred can be mitigated so should the tormenter I become arrives here you will be better equipped to challenge that threat, with calm and certainty instead of blind terror or knee-jerk reactions that would be surely easy to manipulate.
There is no requirement you do so. Though irrelevant, I will not think less of you if you refuse, it would be the reasonable course of action in your place.
A note! Or letter?
