"A decades long search. After leaving the latest dig site where we hoped to find the device. I glanced over to my passenger seat. To my surprise, there it was, for nearly 100 years there it always was.
My grandfather wasted a lifetime of savings exploring the far expanse of this continent in search of this iPad. He died not knowing what became of his beloved, a whisper of defeat on his final breath "Find my device... find my... urgh.. never found! Oh God it's just darkness... I'll never kno.. no noooo..." he said as his face twisted into fear and heart finally gave out. I was only a small boy then, now the years and those words weighed heavily on me.
Stripped of joy, only sadness flooded into me. With disbelief I reached over as I wept, utterly broken."
