 *Player*,It's been a while now, and I've done some real strong thinking.I don't know if there's anything I can say to you. The Light is my real loyalty, and maybe that was what made you do the stupid, horrible thing you did. But I deserve an explanation. And you didn't give it to me. So I guess you just don't care.My Ma always warned me of people who would pretend to be nice, but only go and hurt you. She was right. Well, I think our relationship should come to an end. I decided it, and it's final. I need to stand up for myself. The Light is still strong, but *Player* and I are not.Burgess

If the player marries someone else while dating him:

 *Player*:I was doing a bit of paperwork over at the Temple and I found out... you're getting married! That's amazing! I'm so happy for you! Oh, and by the by, don't even sweat about the whole massive betrayal dagger to my heart thing; water under the bridge! I probably deserve it somehow.Best wishes,Burgess
