Loving Death

"What is your name?" I asked.
They smiled as they answered. "You can call me Anubis. Or Morana. Hades, Javaraya, Hel, Nephthys or Marama. I have been given many names by many people."
I stared in confusion at them. They chuckled.
"Or you can call me Joe."
"Joe?"
"Just Joe, yes."

This is a story of love and death. It is Mylah's story. She is a young woman overburdened with the reality of living. On the edge of giving up. That is where she meets Death. On the edge of a roof, far away from reason and anything else that might distract her from ending it all. But this possible end, might just be the beginning of a millennia long relationship with a being as old as humanity itself.
