[Rhade's voice, steady and flat.] I have my deal, and my mission is over. If you have any parting wishes, I would like to hear them now. I am sincerely hoping that returning won't be necessary.

[Private to Riddick | Audio]

The invitation stands when you're ready. I'll leave you with the access code to the planet. You'll have to forgive the defenses, we have more thieves to worry about in the galaxy these days. Giant civilization shattering wars tend to do that.

[Private to Ben | Audio]

You make me very proud. Take care of your people.

[Private to Friends | Audio]

Thank you. I would never have returned in the first place if I didn't know that people like you would be there. If you have something special that you would like to be kept safe, I'd like something to take back to the Collection with me. [He wants keepsakes, and keepsakes that'll be preserved for a very long time.]

I do want to see you again. Come find me when you have the chance. The Barge has been helpful in giving me that chance.

The games not gonna be the same without you man, but congrads on beatin' the system. I wish you all the luck on your journey from here. If you're ever in LA in the early 2000's look me up yeah?

[truth_is_cold]

I'll try. I've honestly never been back that far in time. But I know a charming woman who might take it upon herself to visit.

[fuckingvisions]

It might be a bit o' fun. An' really now?

[truth_is_cold]

She's the most charming time traveler I've ever met. But don't tell I said that. She might start to suspect I like her.

[fuckingvisions]

Iris?

[truth_is_cold]

No. But I'm sure she would be glad that she's so well thought of, as well.

[So few people knew Miss Persson here, so he doesn't suppose it matters naming her anymore.]

I don't know if you met her, but her name was Una Persson. She was strong, passionate, talented. She had a remarkable singing voice and unwavering patience and kindness. And not least of all she was impossibly beautiful and carried herself with class and poise.

If I have her in my life for even a day more, I will be an impossibly fortunate man.

[fuckingvisions]

I'm sure she does.

I don't think I did, the name don't ring a bell but she must be someone speical to make such a mark on you.

Well I'll be wishin' you that one more day man, you deserve it.

An' try an have fun out there, yeah?
