In the cemetery of the Imperial Capital, Esdeath stood alone before three fresh graves, holding a bouquet of flowers and wearing a blank expression.
Placing the flowers by the graves, Esdeath said slowly, "Liva, Nyau, Daidara..."

Liva had not been found, but he was undoubtedly doomed. Therefore, even in the absence of a body, Esdeath had ordered a grave to be built for him, using his old clothes as a replacement.
