Alex does not know why but she quickly writes down the name of  'Temple 
of Rath-iren' although she does not really know why. Clearly seen in her 
eyes are tears. Her hands shake as she goes to touch his face and closes 
his eyes slowly. She brushes his hair away away from his forehead and 
kisses him on the forehead. Her tears drip down onto him. She sobs, "So 
far and so much fighting and we lose him."
