Synopsis/Details

An old man, realising he's soon to die, has a heart to heart with his only granddaughter, telling her about his estrangement from her father (his son) and how he's lived by himself out in the swamp all these years. Yet, he isn't lonely, he has friends out here, just not the ones most people can see. Before she leaves, the old man has a favor to ask his granddaughter, one that involves him never having to leave his friends.
