It seems to be B5 fanon that Dukhat's relationship with Delenn was ideal, so it's Lennier's fault things went wrong the second time around, and, um, really?
Why, why is fandom sometimes so insane?
I don't think I know where Lennier is either.
My hunch on a re-read is that he changed his name, disguised himself, put all this behind him, and married Mary Sue. In other words, that the Lennier that Delenn loves so wrongly no longer exists and therefore can't be found.
But the ending is perfect, because she takes her angst back to the person it came from. Her hope about being with Lennier in a future life sounds like typical Delenn self-deception, but I can't help but hope she's right anyway.
