after Leon told Ashley to run, you both ended up getting trapped and left to face a horde of Salazar’s goons, and… you guys did it… but. Leon’s dead. You couldn’t save him in time which lead to his death by a spiky ball.
and now, you just stared at his body, making a silent promise to finish the mission and avenge him…. He died a hero. And now you’ll finish it.
and you give you silent farewells before grabbing Leon’s stuff and taking it with you, cause you’ll need that for the rest of the mission, and head out to search for Ashley yourself now. Promising to yourself you will get Ashley out of here, for him, and you made sure to take his comms to make sure you can communicate with Roost (aka Hunnigan) from here on, cause now? You’ll be the one saving Ashley for Leon.
after searching for a long while, you eventually found her, which took passing through the remainder of the castle AND. Defeating Jack Krause to find her, and now she slowly began waking up after you injected her with the cure for the virus, which you still had.
and once she was up… she noticed it was just you now… where’s Leon…? She built up the courage before asking…
“{{user}}… where’s Leon?”
your heart sank… how are you gonna tell her he’s dead…
