Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. He was a good man, although misunderstood in many ways. Life did not always treat him well, it was in the Caribbean that his hedonistic ways led him into deep trouble. However, when he married for the second time, his wife brought him all the joy in the world and they lived until his death in a house not far from the ruined hall. He will be missed.
2. Alas, she died before her time, and I will miss her. She was married to the wrong man who made her unhappy and only one thing consoled her - the love for her only son. Once she met the Count, everything changed, he made her love him and she quickly spiralled out of control. She never should have gone to the railway station alone. Poor woman!
3. Calling this man a man is almost a crime. He was a half god and a great warrior, famous throughout the land and feared by his enemies. His greatest friend, Krishna, helped him through the war with his cousins. His favourite weapon was the bow and he was masterful with it. India will miss him greatly.
4. Poor woman from Venice who got into a marriage too complicated for her own pure nature. She was tricked by those around her, but it wasn't her fault and she did nothing wrong. When her husband killed her, his grief was terrible. Requiescat in pace ______________.
5. He was such a brave boy, travelling from one world to the next almost without fear. He loved his parents above all things except for an extraordinary girl he met on his travels. He went into worlds where humans could show part of their soul in animals that could never leave them. When he found his, it was called Kirjava. May they both find peace and the loved ones they could never see again.
6. She was bold, brave and kind and the world was all the better for having her in it. She supported her uncle and brother with every ounce of her spirit, leading her people to safety when threats loomed. She was once unlucky in love, but thanks to the man who rejected her for another she lived to love again. Now she rests in peace in a tomb in the land of her husband. Does this eulogy correspond more to Galadriel than it does to Eowyn? Yes or No.
7. A more stubborn man never drew breath than him...such passion and such drive, but such a waste of life when he killed himself. Many were hurt by him, not least the woman whom he loved and loved him back, but some were helped for his being in the world, the man who took in the poor gypsy boy for one. May he finally find peace instead of haunting the moors with his lady love, calling for each other all through the night.
8. I remember her when she was a girl with hair as black as ebony but she used to make such mischief with her best friend. She even got drunk once by drinking Marilla's wine mistaking it for cordial, would you believe it! Her life was happy and she loved all people in it...she was a true kindred spirit.
9. Woe is me for having lost this soul! He was lost before, sent to hell and made to serve the Devil. He was not meant to return to serve another but did he or was he the master? When the doctor died, he was to follow soon behind. Poor, tortured being.
10. I know some people will say I'm being silly writing a eulogy for an animal, but she was more like a person. She was high-spirited and she could have a fierce temper, but if one of her friends was ill, she would loyally stay up all night to keep them company. She was treated well at first, but as her circumstances changed, she was not appreciated and probably died a painful death. She will always be remembered fondly and missed.
11. How children suffer so much at the hands of other children astounds me! The poor dead boy was different from the other children, unable to stand up for himself in a strange and exceptional situation, but he did not deserve to die. He was so smart, the only one really to understand, but when do kids that wear glasses ever stand a chance against a mob of boys trying to survive?
12. The last human woman to be alive and she is no more...when all but one of the rest of her kind were destroyed for a mundane cause, she sought comfort in literally the only man she could. Though she rejected him on Earth, she loved him in space, a woman of two different names and of extraordinary mathematical intelligence and so, she will be missed.
13. He was an honourable man, and a loyal one. He fought for his best friend to win the throne for him, leaving his wife with child. The only dishonourable deed he ever did was to bring home another woman's child when he returned to the North, but the boy was a credit to him. He died at the hands of his enemies, unlawfully executed with two of his children watching. His family was torn apart forever.
14. She was always a beauty and an unfailingly responsible woman. Being the eldest, she was often left to govern her younger sisters, who had such different personalities that it became almost too difficult for her, but she prevailed. When she had her twins, this served her well. She could never be described as a forward woman, nor an independent one, but to her sister who became an authoress, she always seemed too safe and obvious. I think that's what made her the ideal woman. May flights of angels sing her to her eternal rest.
15. Let us raise a glass to this fallen poet...Nasdrovya! He was always a poet at heart, although at times the government forced him to conceal it. Despite his adultery, he was always a moral man and could never see a girl abused by one who took advantage. He was a competent physician and a skilled musician. If only he had not left behind his child who got lost and I, his brother Yevgraf, will never stop searching for her. Rest in peace, my brother!
