That’s why I qualified “indicates” with “strongly”.
As for the first, he says the best part of his life was over, indicating that a worse part was to come. And indeed, he spent days lying semi-conscious, thirsting and abandoned in a pit, then betrayed his family to the inhumi to get out, then not too long after got kidnapped to a hell planet and killed. So it sounds like a fair assessment.
Seawrack thought he was dead, but she, while she may have been born human, knows nothing of humans (*except* perhaps ones that are lured by sirens and are quickly killed).
So yes, some deathly images. But no reason to think he actually died then, IMO.

Horn didn’t die in the pit. There’s nothing that strongly indicates that he did and a million things that make it obvious that he didn’t.
