章 378: The Deal

Death wasn't exactly feared by Elves.

In fact, when their time came, they embraced it.

Since there was no form of danger in their lands, and they lived long, fulfilling, lives, they accepted it when their time was over.

After death, they would become one with the Sacred Tree and become Spirits.

Their souls would be transported to a realm called Heaven—a paradise more prosperous than the current Elf Kingdom.

Everyone looked forward to their deaths after spending their lives to the fullest and with no regrets.

However, this only applied to death by old age.

If an Elf's life was cut short, they would obviously have tons of regrets.

Elves who had barely lived beyond a hundred years, or whose time hadn't fully ripened, were clearly not going to be ready to accept death.

Legend had it that such people would never be accepted into Heaven since they weren't at rest.
