Fallout New Vegas Lonesome Road - Ulysses’ final message

Last tape, last message. In case... you best me. If you’re hearing this, you have, through blood or word. This message, and all that lies with it - it is for you, Courier. If you want to know the... why of things. This world, I’ve walked a good part of it... I stopped only because of you. What you did - gave me pause. Long ago, I crossed the Colorado, the first among the Legion to see Hoover Dam in all its glory... an Old World wall, yet bridging two sides. And beyond it, a symbol of a two-headed Bear, an idea great enough to challenge Caesar himself. Might kill him, taking it, whether he won or lost. The Bull needs to fight, needs the challenge, without it... it falters, dies in the dust. Might be a lesson there, in you and me. {“I’ll“}Leave the thought behind the message to you. My message is this - the destruction that has been wrought, at the Divide - or elsewhere, if you couldn’t stop me... It can happen again. It will keep happening. If war doesn’t change, men must change, and so must their symbols. Even if it is nothing at all, know what you follow, Courier... ...just as I followed you, to the end. Whatever your symbol... ...carry it on your back, and wear it proudly when you stand at Hoover Dam.
