To answer your questions, both posed and implied: yes, a year. Not much. No, we have not. Surviving was simple; my initial plan was, it turned out, overly complicated. I merely had to stand at the prow while the Hortense slowed and disembark onto a passing tree limb.
Did you have intentions on ever telling me? Writing a letter, even? Starting a rumor? I told the authorities everything; every last detail, until my throat was sore.
I did not tell them to implicate you, Cabal. Not solely to do so, anyway. If that was what I wanted, I would have alerted the authorities to your presence one of the many times that presented themselves.
I am sure that officer outside of that restaurant would have listened.
Even if I would very much like to go our separate ways, I will not have you breaking the laws of this place. Which you seem to be quite apt at just by being you.
In short, we are stuck with one another. Unfortunately.
What laws could I possibly break? There is nothing of use to me here. My only concern is securing a means of escape. A concern which, if you have a single rational cell in your body, you ought to share.
[The text goes unanswered for two reasons: one; he has discovered nothing, and two; it's become evident that silence on his end is the only way to get any peace.]

Yes, how. I didn't have much time, but I looked. I called for you.
