Throughout all of the story we've dealt with death and loss time and time again, but now we're exploring the concept of letting go. This has easily been one of my favourite areas to explore.
Seeing this beautiful golden area full of life and happy memories gradually turn into this desolate, run down husk. The areas you shut down, the upbeat music has been replaced with an empty silence; there's even no battle music, as if to respect the dead. The music of the central aetheryte plaza echoing against an empty landscape as you progress through your task.
Sphene was desperately trying to keep this happiness going, these precious memories, these people who lived and continue to live their best lives. Trying to prevent their memories from being forgotten and remove the misery from peoples lives for both the living and the dead. Shielding the living from the idea of losing friends and family, re-uniting them in their utopian afterlife.
What if, you could see your loved ones again? Share moments, relive memories, talk to ancestors you've never had the opportunity to converse with. It's a wonderful idea, but death in our lives, doesn't work that way. There's emptiness, the void of loss, we dream of them for months on end, relive our moments with our loved ones, reminisce our happy memories together. We desperately cling to everything that reminded us about them, constantly ask to spend just one more day with them, have regrets with them that live with us.
But, we eventually need to let go, and everything will be ok.
