“With an eye made quiet by the power
Of harmony, and the deep power of joy,
We see into the life of things.”

Death had never considered Earth’s destruction a tragedy.
It was a shame, certainly.
All of Humanity’s progress… Gone before it ever had a chance to truly flourish.
It was sad.
But it wasn’t tragic.
It wasn’t.
Until he saw, first-hand, what Earth’s loss meant to the one human who was left behind at the end of everything.
He should never have let you accompany him through that portal.
Truthfully, the Horseman knows you would never have taken no for an answer, yet he still has to wonder whether it would have been kinder to leave you behind in Lost Light with Nathaniel and the Archon, because when you stumbled like a new-born foal out of the portal behind him and took in your first glimpse of the ruined Earth, Death had to witness the horror of it with insight into your perspective.
It unsettled him, in a way, to see how abruptly you crumpled to your knees like a marionette cut loose from its strings, abandoned on the cold, wet asphalt by an uncaring puppeteer. Your devastation was… tangible. Death could feel it riding the airwaves whilst you knelt at the epicentre of your own growing storm.
Like something very important had just broken off inside of you and there was nothing that could ever fix it back into place.
