"You are death, you collect the souls of those whose time has come." A look of sadness fell over her face, she looked tired. A tear slipped down her cheek, she fell to her knees. "And I want you to start with me."

Who did this to her? So many questions yet no answers, just a dark truth prevailed. But she will not leave so easily. No, not until she gets her answers.

Death's Solace
Serenity was unknown to her. She endured as the flames of hatred burned still in her scarred heart. The solemn voice of the rustling wind was the only thing that comforted her. "That book lied to me. I am meant to be happy? What now? Ah. It's a fantasy book." Death was her dream peace. "You can't die." Until a stern, yet undeniably soothing voice welcomed her ears.Complete

It's still not enough, so we're all overworked--and I'm new. So, like any newbie, I get the jobs nobody else wants. Like cleaning up after the really crazy people. Like finding sunken submarines. Like going through the children's ward at a hospital. Make no mistake. Your job is heaven compared to mine. Made mature for language and mentions of death, violence, murder, and suicide.Complete

Mr. Mortality & the Heart Collector
The year is 1896, and Michael MacBranain is in desperate need of a job. Fortunately for him (or perhaps not-so-fortunately), the Grim Reaper is also in desperate need of an assistant! The trouble is, Michael is terribly superstitious and loathes himself for his own cowardice. But with a dark supernatural force on the loose in New York City, there may be more at stake for Michael and his employer than just job security! ~~~ A multi-part short story, serving as a prototype for the future web-serial "Mortality", the episodic adventures of the Grim Reaper and his assistant. While this story is not as well-researched or polished as I hope for the actual series to be, it does give something of an idea of what I'm going for character and story-wise. I hope you enjoy this debut~ ... (Cover art by my sibling: https://www.deviantart.com/stramberrymilkyway )Complete
