Lorelle held back a laugh because she was many things, but kind and full of hope were definitely not among them. Still, since the priest was trying to honor her dead body, she decided not to ruin the moment.
The priest continued, "Though her journey has come to an end, the lives she touched will continue forward. The memories she leaves behind will remain in the hearts of those who knew her."
After offering a few final prayers, he stepped aside. Leofric and Edmund then began covering Lorelle's body with soil and snow.
Originally, Primrose had wanted to invite a choir from the temple, but the ceremony would have attracted too many people, so she eventually gave up on the idea.
"Now that my body is actually buried underground, this really does feel a little strange," Lorelle muttered. "And a little scary."
[It doesn't make any sense!] she screamed inwardly. [I'm not even the one inside that grave!]
