This is what you look like. Does that bother you? I bet it does. (sigh) I'm not just wearing your face, you know, I goes a lot deeper than that. There's aloooootta you in me- all the best parts.
At first, I was just an idea... but they kept telling all those stories about you. You already had that rep. (chair creaks) And then you disappeared mysteriously... and then the stories about baaad, crazy Alan Wake came true... and here I am! That's the best part, isn't it? When that happens! You can always count on Cauldron Lake.
(sigh)
(chair creaks)
(footsteps away from the recorder)
I'm just as real as you are... and I'm the improved version! No fears, no doubt, no weaknesses, no self deceptions here. I don't let anything drag me down!
(footsteps towards the recorder again)
I know you like I know myself. I know it bothers you that I'm like this, that I use your name, crawl my way into your life. But I only do it because... I'm better at being you than you EVER were!
(footsteps recede)
