maybe, perhaps when martlet "im going to make this right" she tries to stop clover but when clover learns the truth he loses determination, maybe it literally leaks out of him as he loses the reason he pushed forward. martlet unable to put the soul back, and unable to wake him up from this state lays him in the coffin. she doesn't know what to do, martlet wasn't a scientist but she wanted to make things right but perhaps the only right thing to do now would be to give him a proper burial and visit his tomb.
what if he didn't lose conciousness when he stopped moving after he gave up the fight at martlet. when all of them come back, the only thing that kept him sane while waiting for the barrier to break was martlet coming to his tomb and talking. he couldnt respond but he held onto that with all of the determination he had left. I do story writing for tabletop so I'm a fan of the drama but the writing in that isn't "point a to point b" like writing normal stories so while I can feel that its dramatic, I dont know if its sensible as a story
