The dead divulged at sea's shore: bereft, they haunt night waters. Buried ashore, they would wake to death's work.

Rest rites elude them.

Some among you wield fire unending. Lend light. The rest may release candles, salt and incense at sea.

If we do nothing of righteousness here, let us achieve this. What of the other dead?

( ooc: won't someone think of Akira/Lily/Anduin's corpses???? Threadjack away, you've got this. )

( Snort. )

Is it difficult, in some ways, to have him here?
The danger is constant.

He is son of a target, heir of two sects.

His father of finding rules the dead.

He will never walk his path untroubled.

I don't know why I thought your world kinder.

( Kinder than hers. Kinder than this one. Perhaps she just wanted to think there is one. )

Rules all dead?

[downswing]

What difference?

[valeas]

No difference.
I just wanted to understand.

[downswing]

All dead who resent.
