Synopsis

Death has spent a millennium alone, carrying souls into an afterlife of their choosing. He wished for an existence of happiness. After a while, it became an existence that numbed him. He no longer wished for happiness. However, one particular soul, who is supposed to die, makes him go against everything he’s existed for. Instead of guiding her soul to the afterlife, he saves her. The universe doesn’t like his behavior one bit, and despite all the good work he has done for it, it punishes him, threatening deterioration. And he wonders if it was all worth it.
