"Death holds us all in his loving embrace, forever" — Versailles Black
I had woken up to pure darkness till the eye could see.
My mind was foggy, and my body was seemingly not in pain which was a surprise. I touched my throat and shuddered as I felt the phantom pain. I guess you would still feel the pain of getting your throat slit even if you somehow came back.
"You are here," a raspy voice echoed, and I let my hand fall and spun around, looking for the person who spoke in the darkness.
Then the scene changed, it was still dark, but we were now in a candlelight room; the only word to describe it was a throne room from all those fantasy movies I used to watch. It didn't help that a throne made of skulls was before me. A person shrouded in a black cloak sat seated on the throne, tapping his nails on the throne arm.
My eyes widened in surprise, "Who are you? Where are we?" Fear strangled me, but I tried to ignore it and his overwhelming presence.
"I am Death, you can call me Thanatos if you prefer. You are currently in my throne room, in the underworld," he explained calmly.
I nodded, "of course you are. Why am I here?" I inquired, looking around the room; I had to admit, it was a pleasant setting.
"Your soul is here, getting prepared to move on. I also wanted to see you," he told me, looking at me like he could see through me. Perhaps he could if he was dead, as he claimed.
I nodded, sounds about right. I died, so I'll probably be getting evaluated if movies are to go by anything.
"You don't seem so surprised," Death observed me from head to toe.
"I've seen enough movies. So I assume I'm going to hell if I'm standing in front of you." I commented.
He smiled at me and shook his head with a chuckle. "No, darling. The underworld will not be graced with your presence. You are getting another chance at life." He explained, leaving me with more questions than answers.
I ignored the pet name and asked, "you're reincarnating me? Why? I haven't done anything good with my life. I didn't save anyone, or die helping anyone. I quite like being alive, so why give it up for someone."
