13. And most my memories/Have escaped me/Or confused themselves with dreams
There are no words that can adequately convey the amount of sheer frustration I am feeling at this moment.
I advise anybody who may encounter me that my appearance will be much different from what you are used to. As payment for the memory I have just received, I seem to be stuck inside a kilt. And there is something wrong with my voice; I cannot speak without a strange accent. I would dearly love to simply cloister myself within the confines of my apartment until this passes; however, I do have my duties as a medic to perform, and so I shall soldier on.
[There is a long pause before the following is written. The words are pressed hard into the paper before being scratched out and are still visible if one looks hard enough.]
WHY? WHY DOES THE TREE INSIST UPON TAUNTING ME LIKE THIS? WHY DOES IT KEEP SHOWING HER TO ME, BUT NEVER BRINGING HER HERE?!
WHERE. IS. SHE?!
