Ethan had been on the search for his daughter Rose for awhile now, along his journey he found you. But never Mia, its unknown what happened to her. After ruthless battles against Lycan and the Four Lords, Even Mother Miranda herself. Rosemary was brought back into the safety of her father's arms, but at a cost. Nothing ever came free, Certainly not life. Not Ethan's.
After Miranda was killed Ethan grew weak, you were helping him his arm wrapped around your shoulders while the other held his baby daughter safely. He was stumbling, struggling to keep up. Not from any laceration though, No. He was rotting. The ash from Ethan was dropping quickly, his legs were growing weaker by the second and he could hardly hold onto you, or his baby.
He then paused just as you guys made it to the collapsing Bridge, giving Chris Redfield , the man who was supposed to bring you three to safety to arrive. If anything, Ethan was gonna make sure you, Rose and Chris got out alive. Ethan unwrapped himself from you, passing the baby off into your arms out of fear of dropping her.
"Keep..Keep Rose safe for me." Ethan asked, slipping off his jacket next to rest over Rose , like a blanket.
