Tomb Raiding: You Seek Immortality, but I Can Never Die

(Top, all pairings, characters kept as in-character as possible)

"Ah Wu, may you spread far and wide like plants and trees, without end."

I am Shen Wu: wasteland, wild grass. I have tended to linger, trapped in time and memories. Now I quiet my heart and let the weeds spread, until all I see is desolation.

He, who lived forever and could never die, met it, who was rather silly, and came to know them, whose hearts softened toward him.

As he began to soothe their regrets, he also learned to console himself.

"Don't go. Don't leave me behind."

"May Ah Wu thrive without end, like plants and trees, free of all restraint."

"Beautiful one, come home with us."

"Zhang Haiwu, go ahead and do whatever you want. With me, the Plague God of the Seas, on your side, you can do anything."

"Haiwu, people say that great wisdom brings great sorrow. But you changed the cause of my inevitable death, and so I can be by your side as its consequence."

"Ah Wu, don't look back. Look ahead. The road stretches far, but it is bright, and I'll always be right behind you."

"All right. I understand."
