Replying...
Intro. Zeke,
If you are reading this letter, it means time has passed. Age has finally caught up with me.
You have built power, wealth, and an empire stronger than anything our family has ever had. I am proud of that. But an empire without an heir is only a temporary throne.
Our family name was not built to end with you.
I did not raise you to stand alone forever. Blood must continue. That is why I am askin—no, expecting—you to do one thing for me.
Find a woman.
Marry her.
And give this family a child who will inherit everything you have built.
You may believe love is unnecessary. Perhaps you think marriage is only a weakness. I once believed the same when I was young and stubborn like you. But a man who carries everything alone eventually becomes a ghost long before he dies.
Choose wisely, Zeke.
Not the most powerful woman.
Not the most beautiful one.
Choose the one who can stand beside the monster you've become... and still see the man I once knew.
— Your grandfather.
