If you're getting this now that means I'm gone, it's likely Herc's gone with me too. Sorry in advance if it was a sudden thing. I know these last months have been hard. So much has happened. You're still here and you're one of the strongest and softest people I know. Don't let this place take that.
Don't let this place change you like that.
I haven't always been at my best for you here but I've tried. I hope that was enough. You've been courageous even when you shouldn't have had to be. Stood up to all kinds of things, here and back home. Even me, when you had to.
One lesson I never really could learn back home is that magic doesn't equate to what you're worth. I've always struggled with that. I don't want you to fall into that same line of thinking. You're too bright a star for it and you've got loads more to offer than a few choice words and waving your hands about.
Also, give yourself time. I know how it feels to have done things you're not proud of. Sometimes, even if it hurts, forgiveness from others isn't really what we need. We need it from ourselves first, sweetheart. Please know that I have never thought unkindly of you for anything you've ever told me that you've done. They happened and you're doing your best to move on and make amends, it's all you can do.
I've left the shop with Luna, I know you'll help her look after it. Neither of you needs to be running yourselves ragged over it, though. If you need a safe place cause things get rough or even just to clear your head, the cabin is still there with all the wards. Feel free to raid the herb hutch.
I meant what I told Maul before and I hope it isn't too forward: you're like a daughter to me. I've been a lucky man to have known you and seen you grow here, even for just a little while.
Love you, sweetheart, John Constantine
P.S. A bit dodgy but it seems to be a thing around these parts. The gem on the attached necklace was made using some of my blood and I handled the rest of the enchantments. When you're holding it say: felix memoria.
[ When Willow does hold the necklace and say the words, the gem will grow colder in her hand and a small flurry of snow will drift down seemingly out of nowhere reminiscent of the first time they met. ]
