Faust sat down on the floor, his knees giving out. "I saved myself," he said softly.

"I don't want to talk about it!" Faust said fiercely, baring his teeth. "Just... take this..." he said, sliding the gun across the wood floor to them. "I killed her... heh... she won't be coming back anytime soon..."

"Is it something about the ghosts on the cliff?" Mephistophiles asked. "You have an admirer, maybe? Or is an embodiment of death after you?" the latter seemed to be much more alarming than the first.
Faust bowed his head, hiding his eyes.

"She looked like Eliza and I shot her..." Faust said in a rambling, broken tone. "I can't believe I shot her... but she wouldn't leave me!"

Mephistophiles was going around the perimeter of the room, marking the walls with a red pen. "A death embodiment... remember Helen of Troy? Sounds like someone's after his life."

"A death embodiment! Usually, they have some fixation... a woman who was never loved, for instance... haven't you ever seen 'Corpse Bride?' Or a woman whose husband died, or someone who felt wrong... they're like ghosts, but they're destructive. It's in their nature."

"Yeah. Strengthen his attachment to the world of the living. He's vulnerable now because he's dwelling on death."
"I am not!" Faust protested. "I'm a necromancer, for crying out loud! It's my life to dwell on death! Today... today is no different..."
