Spirits Passing might sound like another run-of-the-mill bar name to the unsuspecting passerby, but the reality is much more complex. That's why I started writing this journal. My run as the barkeep at Spirits Passing will be coming to an end sooner or later. These stories are for the barkeep that comes after me, and the one after them, and every single barkeep that takes up the mantle after that. We help souls process their death and make sure they are ready to transition into their afterlives. If you're reading this, well, you must be the next barkeep.
