One morning they would appear in the grass, and by night they would have faded peacefully AWAY. Chapter 8, sent_id = lpp_1943.371

We decided the difference between 'fade' and 'fade away' seems to be that 'fade away' implies reaching an endstate of absence. Does this make it Goal? Goal~Direction? or just Direction?

I think these aspectual verb particle constructions are treated as MWEs in STREUSLE (fade_away), though perhaps we should have an aspectual supersense instead.
