[ Matthias was here on business- Spiritualist business, not coroner business, since by the time a body makes it to a graveyard, he doesn’t tend to see it again. Some months earlier he had run across the spirit of a young man in this particular graveyard and it had been easy to see what kept him tied to this world. As with all Spiritualists, Matthias had trained himself to see the ties that bind, the threads that connected a soul- living or dead- to the world around it. This young man was still bound to a good friend of his, not out of companionship, but out of regret over a falling out between the two of them. Reconciling that hadn’t been easy, since Matthias could only help from the sidelines, but eventually the two had made their peace.
Though he’d moved on, Matthias felt it right to visit the boy’s grave one last time out of respect.
It wasn’t uncommon to find ghosts in a graveyard, so he’s not at all surprised by the presence of the young woman. He glances up, offering her a small smile. ]

Out for a stroll, my dear?
