"The day the game decides he is going to die, he is going to die. No exceptions."
The death flower wouldn't stop him from dying, just give him a few more years to live. He would go back to the start of elder.
I'm curious, I always think of the "what if" aspect. D So what if he drinks the fountain of youth elixer, wouldn't that override the no exception aspect? It returns an individual to YA, so I would think that would happen to him, or does the fact that he is a townie orverride that? Is it programed that he is a townie, even if he has drank the elixer and returns to YA, he will still die the set day programed?
Since the death flower doesn't stop him from dying, I am guessing that he could be resurected to ghost status.
If the death flower stops him from dying and he is reset to the beginning of elder, I would think that the elixer could then reset him back to YA.
Curious.
