We all know and love the idea and the personification of Death. But who, exactly, is Death? This journal, written by Death himself, delves into his dealings as the fearsome Grim Reaper. Each entry is an experience with a Finding - a wayward soul in need of assistance. Each comes with their own challenges, but to Death, each acts as a piece of the puzzle that is Life. With so much to learn and discover from each experience and each entry, one question rises above the rest - what is Death's wish?

(18+) *Complete/Unedited* ---- "You are death." I heard the grin in his tone. "Death's duty is to take care of the already departed. Newly deceased, and previously deceased alike." ***** Morrigan Wraith lives a double life; one not many would think to question.

She was created with a defective heart - one that felt emotion, and one that got her into more trouble than she ever imagined. (18+ for language, violence, and sexual situations)Complete
