[It's strange. He's more prepared for questions that were about the Fall, but it seems that Jack has other things in mind. From the way he's talking, it's as if these questions had time to form and reform themselves constantly, change shape until they were perfect.

He doesn't look overwhelmed, but somewhere between saddened and curious. It almost seems like the words he's looking for might not be there, no matter how hard he tries.]

Jack-san ... you can't live life waiting for Death. It comes, like it comes to everyone. There is no such thing as immortality or eternal life. It's a contradiction. Life means Death, and because we believe in life we die. But that life doesn't have to be waiting, it can be living, even when Death happens to those around you.

Don't let Death cause your suffering, just let it remind you of how precious every second is, and accept it when it comes.

I'm sorry I can't give you the answer you want, but you might find it along the way.

[Suddenly, he looks very serious, almost pleading, and he leans forward closer to the two men.]

Please ... don't wish for it. Don't allow those feelings to take you. All life is beautiful, from the lives that seem like they go on forever, to the lives that feel that they've destroyed something irreplaceable.
