Jigsaw's Legacy III – Before: Saw

Cecil was dead. "How disappointing." John thought. He was convinced that poor Cecil would be able to reform to a better path, to value his life. Still, this was a scenario that John already considered beforehand. Nothing was left to chance. He gave the options, yet, Cecil took his choice and failed. The killer of his unborn son was now dead, right in front of him. John was sincere with Cecil when he said he forgave him. But he couldn't stop but to feel an awkward comfort from it.

He felt good, he felt realized, but this was no revenge. At least that was what John wanted to think. There was no place for personal feelings in the structure of this work in progress. Improvements and teachings were needed. John needed a better understating now that he started something unstoppable. But to learn, more tests were required.

John was ready to write every single thing down, every lesson, every thought, every instruction, and every detail. Everything that would assure that his work would live on, even after the end of his life.
