But those werent the only letters he wrote.
He also penned one to the man he once tried to kill: Negan.
I was helping someone.

We didnt even have to be doing what we were doing.
I was just helping someone and now Im gone.
You might be gone.
Maybe my dad made your people give you up and he killed you, but I dont think so.
I think youre still around and youre working on a way out.
Maybe you got out.
Maybe you think were a lost cause and you just want to kill all of us.
I think you think you have to be who you are.
I just wonder if this is what you wanted.
I wanted to ask you.
I wish I could have.
Maybe youll beat us.
And if you do, theyll just be someone else to fight.
The way out is working together.
Its believing that it doesnt have to be a fight anymore.
I hope my dad offers you peace.
I hope you take it.
I hope everything can change.
It did for me.

What was Negans reaction to this plea from beyond the grave?
Probably not exactly what Carl was hoping for.
All this, there is no getting out of it now, the big bad responded to Michonne.
I wouldnt accept your surrender if you came to me on your knees.
See, winning isnt about beating you.
Winning is about killing every last one of you.Thatis starting over.
I never wanted this.
Rick made this happen.
You tell him that.
