If so, go for it.

Back off. She's trying to reach out to Thurgreed and provide him with some emotional and spiritual guidance. She can't do that from the after life.
As far as I know.

Look, Flinty and I have discussed this. Sure, it'll be painful, but we're ready to move forward into the light, together.

For example:

Okay, so imagine you'd been killed by that train today. Does your friend's life run off the rails without your opinion on the matter at issue?

In all seriousness, what a great board question. If you knew that your life would end tomorrow, what would you want to tell people? What would you want them to know? Any regrets looming large? |

I would want them to know that my life was going to end tomorrow. I might add "See ya, suckers!" depending on how cheeky I was feeling.
