Innkeeper
Given that Eliza didn't seem to happy with you, your future with her seems unlikely. You see now that you missed that opportunity a long time ago and that you need to move on from this folly. You just hope that you'll be able to and that none of this will get back to Cindy.
When you get home, Cindy asks where you've been and you tell her you visited your mother at the inn. You don't really elaborate anymore than that, but Cindy doesn't ask anything further as she's not too interested in what's ever going on there in the first place.
During your last remaining year in Klyton, you don't visit your family's inn anymore as a safety precaution. You try to go on about your life though the fear of Cindy finding out what might've happened is always in the back of your mind. Granted Cindy's not likely to visit the inn anytime soon, but what happens if one of those miners goes to the hospital for a broken leg or something? What if he sees you and asks how Eliza is in the "sack?" What if Cindy is with you when he asks that question? What if Eliza herself comes down and causes a scene?
"Hey you! Come here we need another doctor in ER!" a nurse shouts at you.
You stop your current daydreaming and quickly follow her to the emergency room
"She's not breathing!"
"Does anyone know what she took?"
"Her employer said she thinks it was Bog Malice."
The noisy chaos of the emergency room seems to go silent when you step forward to see the girl lying on the table.
It's Eliza.
"Don't just stand there, hand me that pump!"
You snap out of your daze and grab the pump the surgeon asked for.
"This isn't working, the poison's too damn strong. Her body is probably completely shutting down. Where the hell are those electro-gauntlets?"
"NO, she can't die!" you shout. "Hand me a syringe of Troll Adrenaline!"
"Troll Adrenaline? Her body can't take that!" a nurse says
"She's already fucking dying! Somebody gimme that syringe now!"
You shove the syringe deep into her chest and inject the adenaline. This causes Eliza's body to begin to twitch violently and she even opens her eyes. She then spits up a mixture of blood and some sort of black fluid.
"Huuuuuuuuuu!" Eliza wheezes
A nurse rushes in with electro-gauntlets and you grab them immediately and lay your hands on Eliza's chest.
"CLEAR!"
BUZZ!
"CLEAR!"
BUZZ!
"CLEAR!"
BUZZ! SPARK! FWOOM!
The electro-gauntlets short out and you end up giving yourself a nasty zap causing you to fall to the floor. It doesn't take you long to realize the gauntlets are also on fire. You shake them off immediately. You smell the scent of burnt flesh and scramble back up to help Eliza who has now once again ceased to move.
"Oh shit, shit! I'm sorry Eliza! I'm so fucking sorry!" you say and begin pounding on her chest, but it's no use
"You tried everything you could my boy, she's gone." The surgeon says trying to calm you down.
"No, but look her foot just twitched, she "
"That twitch was just an after effect of the troll adrenaline. (Sigh) Never gets easy losing a patient and I gather you knew this one personally?"
" yeah she yeah "
You stumble out of the emergency room and see your mother who must've been the one who brought her here.
"Son! Is Eliza "
"She's dead."
After the funeral you take time off from work. Cindy tries to be sympathetic, but the fact that you feel really guilty over Eliza's death and incredibly broken up about it leads her to quite rightly think that you had stronger feelings for her than you let on. Ultimately Cindy breaks up with you and eventually moves back to the Delantium Kingdom by herself.
Eventually you go back to work and continue on with your life. You never do forgive yourself for Eliza's death though and immerse yourself in your work.
As for your family's inn, your mother continues to run it until the day she dies. You get the impression her concern for you caused her to stay rather than retire to Teckleville like she once planned. Upon her death you sell the inn, as you have no desire to run the place. The owner of a chain of inns from the Delantium Kingdom ends up buying it.
Due to your focus on your job, you end up becoming a more dedicated doctor with many patients speaking highly of you. In time you even win an Excellence in Medicine Award. You graciously accept these awards and praise, but you always think back of what you should've done differently to save the one life you feel directly responsible.
You think Eliza's suicide could've been prevented if only you'd kept your mouth shut that day. Or maybe you should've pursued her harder. Or maybe you should've done something else. You routinely mentally torture yourself with all the possible better ways you think you could've handled things. As a result you never marry and place flowers on her grave site on a weekly basis.
Your own death is a sudden one at home that comes to you many years later well into an age when you should've long retired. When your body is found, your last request in your will is carried out. Your body is cremated and the ashes sprinkled over Eliza's grave.
