Death Is But The Next Great Adventure 소설 & 이야기

Then she reads part from a letter that I never managed to finish writing, “My beloved, They say that life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming “Wow! What a Ride!”

That is what I will die for. When I finally fall, it is not sudden. It is gradual, like the world slowly letting go of me. Corbin stands over me, victorious in his mind, already convinced this was meaningless. But I answer him anyway, because even dying men deserve to speak their truth. I tell him he is wrong. That Adrian is coming. That my death is not an ending without consequence, but a turning point he will not survive. And even as blood fills my mouth, I believe it.

“Cowards die many times before their deaths; The Valiant never taste of death but once, Of all the wonders that I have yet have heard, It seems to me most strange that men should fear; Seeing that death, a necessary end, Will come when it will come.” --Shakespeare, Julius Caesar _

I nodded, clinging tighter, my screams echoing silently in my mind. Death, they say, is inevitable…. But in some happenstances, we embrace this cold but relieving indomitable. Sensualizing its finality and basking in its advances. For the taken, death is bliss. For the left behind, death is loss. Thank you all…. This episode is dedicated to my dad… may his soul rest in peace…. It’s my life experience and how I felt.

Dunley chimed in, "Why are you apologizing when we're not even dead yet? I already did a reading and got a good omen. Nothing will happen to us today." Leland roared with laughter. "You're about to die, and yet you say you got a good reading, huh? I can't believe you'd actually say that. "Oh, I almost forgot. You're supposed to be the world's best fortune teller, aren't you, Master Lewin? Guess you're not that good after all." Leland was grinning widely, certain that Anthony and the others on his side were all going to die today. All of a sudden, an anguished howl rang out.

And to think it all started watching a funeral …. My death ended up being my entire life. And I wouldn’t change it for the world. THE END!!!! Thanks for reading!!

“Almost? What happened? What changed?” Dawn moved forward. Its presence was heavy. Troubled. Changed. “I watched Kade kill a deer. Watched life end. Watched consciousness cease. Watched something become nothing. And I thought perhaps I was right originally. Perhaps existence is terrible. Perhaps death proves nothing is superior. Perhaps erasing everything would be mercy.” Silence. Heavy. Terrible. Frightening.

"The Absolute was absorbing me. Absorbing all infinite versions of me. I chose death to escape." "Did you escape?" Death tilts their head. "Or did you just trade one trap for another? Here, in my realm, you exist forever. Conscious but bodiless. Aware but powerless. Dead but not gone. Is that really better than the Absolute?" Horror floods through me. "You're saying I'm trapped here? Forever? Conscious in nothing? Aware in nowhere? That's worse than absorption! That's torture!" "Is it?" Death moves closer. "Or is it peace? No more fighting. No more choosing. No more manipulation. Just existence. Simple. Pure. Eternal. Many would call that paradise."

She asked, shaking her head. "It's true what they say that you don't understand the value of what you have until you get to lose it. When I almost lost you two nights ago. I mean I literally lost you. Your heart beat had gone weak. Diana I felt you tear away from me, from life. And I realized just how much you meant to me. How much I love you. How much I can't do without you. I came to realize that without you, I'm gone. Gone forever. Rejection is worse, the death of a soul mate is terrible. When the physician came and couldn't do anything, I felt like all hope was lost. Not until he told me only the Queen Supreme could save you. I had to put an emergency call across to the King Supreme and
