For the next few days, Basil greeted fans and worked tiressly on rehearsing his score to Conan. The final night was an emotional one. It was though you had been resurrected from near death to come to knock us out with your wonderful score, revisiting the genesis of your career. The audience went crazy, and demanded an encore. It was hard to keep a dry eye, Basil. What a send off. I am very sad today, but I am also very happy you got to go out with glory. From a huge fan and personal admirer, I'll miss you a lot, Basil.
Love,
John Ottman"

Ah fuck, he should have died there, on the Encore of Atlantean Sword ... Yet, it's indeed comforting to know this happened. I'm especially schocked since I was imagining him much younger.
Rest in Peace. Your work shall remain immortal.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
