Although a lot of pilots were lost at the end, there weren't as many that died compared to the previous days, and unlike those days, the pilots instantly decided to celebrate big time. To mourn the dead they decided to throw a party, strangely enough.
They reminded me of the people of Spiritias in a way, a lot of people would celebrate after a big battle, and they would mourn the death in a big feast, eating and celebrating for them so they would "be happy in the other side" or whatever.
Even after so long, I usually don't really know what to say regarding these things, but that an "afterlife" exists is indeed the truth, at least within Spiritias… I still remember seeing Ellergest and the Necromancer, his friend, disappear into the sky when both of them died.
