A short story taken from The Dao Of The Four-Eyed Laozi, another work of mine. This tale recites my rendition of The Ferryman who takes souls to the underworld via the River Styx in Greek Mythology.
[This is my personal rendition of Greek Mythology so do not take this as fact. It is purely a work of fiction.]

Journey below [L x reader] • Death Note
Sister story to Etheral. At first it was... painful. A sharp jab in his chest and slowly he felt all the energy drain from his body. He sat in a dark void of nothing for a while, until he felt... wet, soaked actually. And when he sat up and caught his breath he found himself sitting in the red blood waters of the river styx. L Lawliet was dead, but his fight was far from over. Don't look back. [Book 1/1] Hey, it's me I wrote Etheral. And I liked the whole gods in death note thing so much I decided to do it again. But this time in the underworld. This is not a sequel but a sister story, an opposite to etheral if you will. Enjoy my good shades.Complete
