Not long after, a funeral for lady Amily is held at the Iazhiorian graveyard. Justice and Natalia are both invited, though they haven't heard a single thing from Raven before that. It's understandable. When the young couple arrived, almost everyone was there. Hope, Vurul, Theobold, Harlem, Berlda, Astrid, lady Amily's family members, relatives, friends, and Raven. All there, gathered before the tombstone of lady Amily Novartis. It was greatly decorated with bouquets of soft pink lilies, those that shared the same hair colour as the woman. Justice laid down a bouquet of the same flowers against the stone and paid his respect, before backing off into the crowd. As if nature was trying to mock the grieving man, rain begins to pour down onto the city. The people in the crowd take out their umbrellas only Raven stands as unmoving as a statue amidst the raindrops. We stand there in silence for a while, before the crowd eventually begins to slowly lessen in number. Soon the last few people besides Raven leave the graveyard as well. In the end, only the elf is left standing in the rain with his thoughts to himself.
The image of her on that fateful day can't stop reflecting back to his mind. Her sweet smile, her warm embrace, her gentle voice, now nothing but a piece of memory in his mind.
