The worst thing is that Bais was so intelligent and literate and witty, I figured him to be the sort of person who would become a great author or something.
Not that I mean that a "great" person's death is any more tragic than that of anyone else's, but... I think that best describes the tragedy of an untimely death. Anything that the person was capable of doing, all of their potential for good deeds or great works, is wiped away.
@~okami~ Sorry, I guess I'm just the type to assume the worst under these circumstances. But I can't convince myself to imagine a happier explanation.

Strange, isn't it? Each man's life touches so many other lives. When he isn't around he leaves an awful hole, doesn't he?
