Chapter 22
Nute Gunray's Peospective
I was in shock to see,
Who was standing in front of me.
Rune...
My advisor greeted me with a smile.
Hello Gunray, looks like we both made it.
He embraced his brother in a hug.
My chin resting on Rune's right shoulder,
He leaned a little against his viceroy's left cheek.
Both their scars mirrored the other's chest.
For some reason I was seeing red.
Breaking my loving embrace from my brother.
Rune was about to asked me what was wrong,
But soon found out that my attention was turn to our heavenly father.
God could see the anger and rage, reflecting from his son's eyes.
You! I snarled .
Why did you cursed Rune to spend half of his afterlife
In the solitude of limbo?
My lord snapped back at me.
Have you forgotten, what he told you?
A memory flashed in the back of my mind
Of my last encountered with my brother
In the world of the living.
Do you have to go?
Gunray... Rune sighed,
Trying to figure out what to say to his brother.
He finally found his words.
I'm stuck in purgatory,
I can't cross over to the afterlife,
Without you joining, as well.
Til that time comes.
I'm always with you.
My hatred faded into guilt.
M'lord, please forgive me.
My son, you had no idea.
Are the rest of the Separatist Leaders here?
My lord nodded his head
Would you like to see them?
I want to,
But there's something I have to take care of with your permission.
You wish to go back to the world of the living?
It was my turn to nod my head.
For what reason?
You know why.
Is Phoenix still on your mind?
I can't begin my eternal rest
With her griefing over my death.
Go to her, my son
Thank you, m'lord.
