Speaking from my own experience, even when you can sense that a person's time is limited, nothing really prepares you for when their death actually happens. The finality of it hits hard. I was trying to capture that feeling here for both Byleth and the reader. 😢
The rest of this story is basically just Byleth trying to cope with Dimitri's death, first with getting through his funeral and then with her 'new normal' once all of that is over. She is definitely not alone in her grief, as you'll see next chapter, but the kind of grief she's experiencing still makes her feel lonely. 💔
