Idea for the title - if it's a three-part series, why don't you name the whole series? For example, you could call the series Life Cycle (I'm pulling a name out of a hat, here...), and then you could label each part of the series Life Cycle 01: Death, Life Cycle 02: Resurrection, and Life Cycle 03: Life - that way your readers could know that even if the first story is a WHAM (uh, is that the right term?), that there is more to come, and it may get happier. Like Annie said, some people (me included) get a little scared if the title seems to hint that it might be a deathfic
- but I might read it anyway if there's a chance you'll write another story and fix the mess you made
