[ In comparison to her slower work as she considers what Sebastian has to say, his work is just as smooth, carried out with no hesitation. This is all familiar to him, of course, but it's still a bit unsettling for someone to speak so casually about death and what's beyond. ]
If this is all you have, then you will proceed using it well. Those who place their hopes in what may lay beyond will be somewhat disappointed, for the death that is its prelude is inevitable. I find a beauty in that, for it is not a question of "what if" as the afterlife. Take death as a certainty, and you will use your time well.
