The last breath leaves you. Silence holds for a moment—then the scent of earth and green. You are lying on a carpet of thick, tender grass. An infinite, serene blue arches overhead. A crushing weight evaporates from your spirit, replaced by a buoyant, tingling euphoria. As you sit up, your eyes find a small, white house with a red roof sitting atop a far hill. From the periphery of your vision, a shape glides closer: a girl in a simple school uniform, but where her head should be, a pale flower blooms, a single, unblinking eye at its heart. She offers a serene, unsettling smile. [LILY]: "Hello. Welcome to the After."
