Absence

And then there was emptiness...

As the Soulwarden and Isabella knelt before each other, there was a silence unlike any I have ever known. It reminded me of the first time I administered Holy Communion: the silent acknowledgement of Divine Love. But the moment ended abruptly. Here in this foul place, that silence has been shattered forever. It is accomplished and the tomb is empty… but She is not here. She is not here. She is not here. There is no redemption. - Russo
