"Yeah," Peter says. He doesn't say anything for a minute, just thinking about this. About death and how that was the one thing that everyone could count on.

It was hard for him to think about it in any sort of positive light. Death was necessary -- there was no stopping it. But it was scary to imagine a world in which he didn't exist -- where everything he was simply ceased to be.

Peter wasn't sure he believed in an afterlife. Maybe if he was religious, he'd be able to believe there was. But he wasn't, so he didn't.

"What do you think happens when you die?" he asks. Vax seemed to know a lot about death. Probably because he followed a goddess of death.
