After the war, drought, and famine destroyed our lands of origin. Women of Sappho migrated to uninhabited lands and began building a home, culture, and identity for ourselves. For years, we tried to rebuild society with those unlike us, but after realizing their hatred and fear were too much to bear on top of being survivors of war, we left without ease to create societies of our own. We dedicated our homes anew to our goddesses that protected us from death and hunger, and with their power, we live alongside nature and the divinity of women in protected, sacred, villages. For years we lived happily and independently amongst each other in the safety of our mother goddesses and blessed land.

Geoff and Naomi are dead, and they're depressed, but when Geoff's cat Bernie dies as well, they embark on a wild journey to find it in the underworld. ***** When Geoff dies, alongside his girlfriend Naomi, they end up sharing an apartment in the Underworld as skeletons. But after a few years, Geoff starts suffering a mid-death crisis. What's the purpose of going through the motions as a skeleton if you can't really live? Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home! Geoff and Naomi hurry to get Bernie only to discover that, due to a clerical error, their cat has been lost. With the hunt for Bernie giving new purpose to Geoff's un-life, he and Naomi begin a quest to get back their cat. Battling skeleton pirates, climbing the sky ladder and facing off against the villain who took Bernie, Geoff is determined to find his purpose - or die a second time trying!
