Sometimes the boy will tell me that he has nightmares.
"It's a good thing", I'll tell him. Having nightmares means that you're still
fighting. And... It's when you start having good dreams you need to worry.
You see, when you have good dreams, you start remembering what the world was like before
it was dead. You start remembering your family and what
it was like before it was dead. You don't want to think about that in this
world. It's when you start having good dreams that
you know that you've given up. It's when you start having good dreams that
you'll know you're going to join those that died before you. Those you cared about.
I don't want that for him. We're gonna go south. Towards the coast.
Seek warmer climates, possibly civilization, I don't know.
There's probably nothing out there. But if there is something... It's going to
be out there. And we're both going to make it.
