The Session_End event is meant for clearing up any objects or items that
you have created for the session, you cannot interactively do anything
with the user.

When a session closes, it is usually because of a timeout because the
user has not requested anything from the server and the connection has
been lost (eg. the user has closed the browser).

The Session_End event is not triggered by the user, so you cannot do
anything with it.

You can only redirect the user when the next session starts again.
