One night at the fire, as she was cooking their food, she said, “I must go soon. Tomorrow. There is something I must tell you before I leave.” She was honest and straightforward. He liked this aspect of her.

The next day he didn’t want to see her leave, so he planned to propose to her after she told him what she had to say…

“You are dead. … You are dead, and you’ve been swallowed up by this dimension. The only reason you’re alive is because you have something to hold on to. I was sent here to tell you this in the hopes of you moving on.” She was unkind with her words, but they were true.

He did not believe her at first, but after some thought, be relied on her words. He told her he accepted his death and that he was ready to move on. She told him how to pass, but when he tried he could not.

“There must be something else holding you back.” She began to ponder why he was still standing before her.
