Summary
""It was interesting, at first, to notice how huma— ahem, how other humans talked about death. But then she offered me a funeral package.”
Neuvillette closes his eyes. He doesn’t want to talk about this. He doesn’t want to have to think about it, not when it will be inescapable soon enough. Live, he wants to beg her. Stay with me forever. It would be so easy to ensure her survival. But she has lived far longer than any human would wish to, and withstood far more pain and fear than any other human could have survived. He has no right to ask this of her.
“Did you take it?” He asks. He does not want to know the answer."
Furina returns from Liyue with a newfound lease on life.

Summary
Loki gets a chance to change everything. The Norns, having become tired of Odin's meddling in the Weave, have decided enough is enough. Death sees this as a chance to plead their case, asking for Loki to go through the trials needed to become the Master of Death. In order to stop Thanos, Loki would agree to anything, knowing what is coming, and so he does. Hera Potter grows up not knowing who she'd been, what she is expected to go through, or that she's already fighting for something greater than herself. As the barriers fall between this life and the last, Hera will have to navigate through who she was to stay who she is. She was Loki once, but she is more than that now, and she will fight to keep it and the life she's made. If that means flinging her soul across time and space, or using the knowledge she has to navigate through a future she should not know, she'll do it. Who is Thanos to threaten everything she loves? Who is Dumbledore to think a child should be responsible to win a war? And where does Odin get off thinking he had any say at all?

Summary
"She's...she's gone?" Furina says, soft and uncertain in a way she's still not sure she's allowed. There's the familiar panic, of course - the surety that she messed up, that the act was slipping; the urge to claw out her composure until it tore her face into a smile. The old fatigue, too, but that had always been the easiest to push down. "Mir– Focalors. The, um, Hydro Archon. She's gone?"
"...yes," Neuvillette says, with a complex expression. "She was condemned to death by the Oratrice, and bore it's judgment to fulfill the prophecy. Her role in Fontaine has at last concluded, Lady Furina." He looks at her again, gaze softening further. "...as has yours."
Furina talks to Neuvillette after her trial, after the flood, and after her role is finally over.
(An extra scene at the end of the 4.2 Archon Quest, before the Traveler meets Neuvillette at the entrance to the Fortress of Meropide)
