It felt like we were walking forever. My feet moved on their own and didn't stop.
After several hours we reached a place where there was no smell, where there were no undead, and most importantly where there was a statue of the angel. Should I have been happy?
But what good will it, do now? It's all over…
"Welcome Wanderer."
I didn't answer. I didn't want to. But after giving it a thought I said something. I said something that I didn't want to say. "Can you bring back the dead?"
"I cannot."
"Damn it…"
"Daarc…" Jowy said but he didn't come close to me.
I didn't pay any attention to him.
The angel's voice gave off an ounce of sorrow. Maybe it felt my pain? But how could it? "It is true that I cannot bring back the dead but I can arrange one last audience with her soul. Her soul hasn't yet left this forest and soon will turn into an undead."
"How'd you know and what do you mean?"
WE finally say goodbye to Brenda here. I don't know how many of you liked her, but personally, I really liked her as a character, and maybe that's why it hurts to see her go like this. I kind of pulled a bit of a deus ex machina here to make sure we got to have this conversation here, cause let's face it, we didn't want her turning into an undead.
