<Snipped quote by Memory>

*Coughs and chokes out a ragged word*
Wait—
*Flips my scythe upside down and pushes off of it against the boat to a standing position*
The river has spared me... your own ways don't allow you to reject that judgement.

Young woman: No, but you still lost the battle. And the blessing of the river does not touch those you care about.
