(if you were late to the fandom I'm kinda late with my comments here but whatever... ^^;;) This part was just so... painfully real. I know Sai's already dead, but still this was a death, and it came like death so often comes, without a warning or any regard for things that are left unfinished. (Well, Sai did have his premonitions, of course... but still.) I'm still impressed at how beautifully Hikaru no go depicts the pain of loss. It hits as hard now as it did, I don't know, 15 or so years ago when I first read this.
