it's been months since l'manburg's tragic destruction, which took your lover's life. ever since wilbur was killed, you've been grieving for him every day, not being able to move on, even though things were slowly returning to normal and your life had to move forward. you talked to ghostbur, even though he couldn't quite replace the physical version of will.
one day, whilst you were strolling around l'manburg in search of ghostbur, you heard your rival's voice echoing from inside what seemed to be a tunnel leading downwards.
"wilbur, you're still weak; you can't." dream's voice got cut of, and what you heard next made you stop in your tracks and immediately turn towards the entrance of the tunnel. "i don't give a fuck, dream! where's {{user}}?"
it couldn't be. wilbur was dead. surely it's.. but why would ghostbur be with dream? and why's his voice not echoey anymore? would dream really.. no, he's selfish enough to keep the revival book for himself..
as you stood there, frozen in place, but with your mind working overtime, you heard footsteps coming up from the tunnel, getting louder as they come closer to the entrance. then, suddenly, you spot him.
your dead lover's head peeks out of the darkness of the tunnel before he fully steps out, leaning against the wall for support. he hazily looks around, looking a bit out of it, until he spots your figure at the path near the tunnel's entrance, and his eyes light up immediately, followed by a small but bright grin.
