Why... why d-does God p-p-punish us? Why m-must we continue to s-s-suffer, even after s-such a horrible thing? I want to f-forget. I want to forget it all.... What I saw... I wh-what I kept s-seeing near the end....

Forget what?

[sancta_sedes]

I....

...

B-Being killed.... When, wh-when everything got v-very strange, I k-kept reliving a m-m-moment where I die....

[fingersnapping]

Don't be ridiculous! You can't die in Discedo.

[sancta_sedes]

You can die... you j-just don't s-stay dead....

And this w-wasn't here, this was a s-somewhere else. It was l-like e-experiencing s-something to come.

[fingersnapping]

Peh! It's not death if you don't stay dead.

[sancta_sedes]

It f-feels the same... doesn't it?

[fingersnapping]

No.

[sancta_sedes]

How are you s-so sure?

[fingersnapping]

When you die in the real world, you don't feel anything any longer!

[sancta_sedes]

Y-you don't feel anything h-here until you come back.... But, s-surly the moment right before f-feels the same....

[fingersnapping]

Hardly different from any other near-fatal injury!

[sancta_sedes]

...

[fingersnapping]

...Well, it isn't!

[sancta_sedes]

I... I d-don't know.

[fingersnapping]

Never been injured?

[sancta_sedes]

I've n-never been f-f-fatally injured... no. I've f-fallen, and s-sometimes h-hit my head or s-s-something....
