Nosfera2 your explanation for this episode was the most mind-thoughtful, analytic, and subjective logical that I have ever read within this thread.

You found the needle on the haystack.

At this present era, what we need to give serious thoughts about is not where we're going after departing from this life, but rather to wake faith upon us to give us self assurance that we'll do just fine in the afterlife.

The same goes for being concerned how much are we going to live or how many years remaining do we have to spend alive. Won't it be better just to live our lives to the fullest each day without grave concerns or fears about death, divine judgement, and hell?

The only thing bad about human nature is that 'we' the people tend to remember others more for what they did or contributed to humankind throughout history rather than for who they really were.

Take, for example, all the scientists and inventors like Thomas Edison, Alexander Graham Bell, Marie Curie, etc. We remembered them mainly for their scientific discoveries and inventions that help revolutionize mankind's technology and society, but very few remembered them for the person who were they originally.

Another extreme case in the opposite direction were the tyrants like Adolf Hitler. The ideology of hatred and violence that these persons propagated into their respective people sparked wars, discords, and pave the way to abominable acts against other fellow humans.
In Hitler's case, he will always be remembered for having induced the 'Holocaust' and spreading his Anti-Jew resentment before and during the black years of World War II.
And the Holocaust is just another tragedy in man's history that will forever be etched into our minds (as a whole) and never be forgotten.

Unfortunately, as human beings we tend to recall vividly tragic events such as the 'Holocaust' more than glorious happenings.

This case is suitable applied to Rosette and Chrno. Sure, both will be remember for who were they throughout the Magdala Order, however, the rest of USA population (mainly the San Francisco community) will only remembered them for what they did. And I bet that with the passage of time, few members of future generations of the Magdala Order will remember Chrno and Rosette for what they did rather for who they really were.

What time, change, and fate (all three combined) do is turning those exceptional people aside from the rest into martyrs, in short.

That's what became of both Rosette and Chrno, both turned into martyrs for what they had put faith into: staying together until the end of their days.
