Strange reply on my part! Sorry.

Ankh could not help but to disagree with the prospects that she placed before him, only because it did not follow his beliefs. He, also, did not quite understand how a life-cycle that continued in other creatures after their death was something to be bothered by. She had spoken of her life being injured. He had inquired why this was the case. The answer was less than satisfactory for the pallid Pharaoh.
She was met with furrowed brows and a heavy – albeit thoughtful – frown from the male. “There is beauty in death,” he breathed after a moment or two. “Life would not be nearly as valuable without the inevitable end.” One could not know happiness without having experienced sorrow. By that same token, Ankh did not believe that creatures could appreciate their life without fearing death. The standards of the Egyptian wolfdog did not fully apply to the lesson he was hoping to share with the dark-furred female. For the Pharaoh, the fear of death was dampened by the belief in the afterlife. When his body decayed and his soul was taken from that earth, he was to live where kings dwelled. Until then, life was nothing more than a daily task.
