Chapter 504: Too Many Visions to be Dead

A/N: The last chapter concluded the fifth arc of the novel, pitching us into the sixth and final one. Thank you for reading this far, and if you haven't already, please consider leaving a review. We're only a few away from getting the novel rated, which would be something of a personal milestone for me. It would be easy to get a few random alt accounts to do it, but I want them to be more meaningful, coming from people who have actually enjoyed the work so far. Thanks again, and I hope you continue to enjoy my work!

Death felt different this time. It was dark and quiet, looking much the same as my last brush with the inevitable shadow, but something was off. There wasn't a sense of detachment or peace, none of the freedom I'd experienced before Fate called me to her side. 

Could it be because I'd left so much behind? In this life, I had friends, happiness, and a loyal companion in Fable.
