It is not so dissimilar to dying.

[Celehar folds his hands, considering the state of them as he chooses his words carefully, the fabric of his long black coat swallowing him.]

The dying live through the pain and the suffering that leads to their death - sometimes quickly, sometimes slowly. But when they are gone, it is those left behind who carry that pain, still.

[He sighs.]

It is perhaps not fair. But it is dying - and we are still dying, in a way. And a burden borne for a friend... perhaps it is not so heavy as the one we must carry ourselves.
