RIP The Dawn. And, as The Standard’s parting words suggests, this also offers a resolution of sorts for Alex’s death.
Kudos to Jonathan Rector here, who really let the drama of this moment breathe.
Been awhile since this was posted. I was rereading (because that’s what I do) and I suddenly realized something.
Gilbert said at the grave that he was proud and regretted not telling Alex that after all the things he did to make Gilbert so angry. That “I forgive you” last page wasn’t just for killing Alex, but for everything else as well.
Or at least, The Dawn might have taken it that way.
RIP Alex
