“I've seen other things as well. They don't scare me, but I also don't know how I feel about them yet.” She gave a small hum while pressing a single index finger to her lips in an awkwardly simple gesture perhaps not meant for one of her stature. “What do you think happens to us when we die? Do you think Erebus takes us and exacts his revenge on Celeste through torturing our souls? Or do we become one with Great Mother Celeste?”

Rei was looking at her with a slanted gaze, knowing that she was trying to tell him something he didn't wish to hear. “I don't believe in such things. Personally, I'm an atheist.”

Nora let out a hearty bellow of laughter, knowing that what his lips had just bequeathed to her was a bold lie. “I had always thought that when I grew tired of this world I would go to the forest and see what dreams waited for me. The truth of the matter is that I am going to die a very painful death. I think the worst I've ever had was a paper cut.”

The relationship between these two still gets me curious. I can never really say for certain if Rei has a thing for Nora Sybil or if they really are just good friends. Then again, Rei's facetious enough to be brushed off even if he were telling the truth, which ends up happening a lot between him and Valerie. She just plays along, laughing the whole way.

i almost detect some pity to tell the truth, or even some sort of one-sided emotion on Nora's part. Of course other than the picture Rei keeps in his desk, a few things he says to Kamen, and an all out confession near the end of Book 2, the reader really never knows what's going on in that guy's head.
