Sure. This is not like the end OBW where Marc believes he detects a 
death. The death on Green is not treated this way.
The narrator makes a big freakin deal over the moment Horn falls in to 
the pit. Saying "Well, there are lots of deaths in this story" doesn't 
cut it for me. I think this is one of the biggest non-secret secrets in 
Wolfe literature. He never waves flags like this. But apparently it 
wasn't enough.
