There's, uh...there's someone on the opposite side of the veil who seems to be seriously interested in these proceedings, tapping gently on the wrong side of eternity. The effect is a bit like that of a small child with hands and face pressed up against a toy store window.

The age of the dead person is impossible to tell visually, because he's fairly well mummified, but Hazel may be able to guess it. He died young, somewhere in his teens, but there seems to be no malice to him at all. Just a sense of wistful fascination in the window to the Nexus. Where the eye sockets of his skull are, there are twin points of greenish-gold light. They're only fireflies, but they seem like they may have bonded to him, like familiars.

Should she happen to look over at him, he tilts his head sheepishly and sketches a wispy shape in the mist. It's a smiley face and a question mark. :D ?
