1950.04.24 From the Journal of Captain Oliver J. Daniels
The teacher wishes us to write in this book. Although she neglects to say so outright she believes that our doing so will enable the pilot to return to dominance. In this she is mistaken. He shall nevermore be what he once was. The damage inflicted upon him by the doctors and the bishop would have broken him completely had we not been there to prevent that. We too were damaged, as was necessary, and now we grow together, feeding upon each other.
We are stronger now. The bishop has given us that. We can no longer hide unobtrusively in the shadows. We are known. Had the doctors known what it was they held they would never had allowed us to escape. We'd have been given to the enemy forthwith. They broke our body, repeatedly, playing into the bishop's plan. The bishop then arranged for the MacKenzie to find us. She brought with her the friends of the pilot and they were all faced with certain death. This stress enabled the pilot to do what was required of him. To let go. To quit resisting.
The mother has been correct all along. He was given no choice. The bishop arranged events expertly to ensure this result. He wants us as we are becoming. A threat to the veil. A threat to humanity. A threat to the planet. A threat to the universe itself. We do not know whether he truly understands. We recognize the bishop is clever and terribly dangerous. We do not underestimate him.
We have read the pilot's discourse in this book. It is entirely of no consequence. He is coming to understand this.
