As the elf reached this point, its voice broke for a moment, as it remembered the various acts that had accumulated the many titles. When it had recovered, it continued.

We return you to the earth

To claim the final gift that is your right

Eulogy over, the elf turned on its heel and saluted, the action echoed throughout the amassed troops. Then, snapping its arm down, it walked forwards and knelt for a final goodbye.

"Farewell my love," it said, tears in its eyes, "Wait for me on the other side."

Then Wing Commander Holly Short straightened. Returning to her podium, she pressed the button for the restraints holding the shrouded body.
