Charon

My name is Charon, not Karen. I'm a modern ferryman, (technically a ferrywoman), and I take souls across the river Styx in my 2004 Chrysler Crossfire. It's like being the Uber of Death. In real life, I'm a high-priced Life Coach. I like helping people find their way. So, what am I to do when a desperate librarian begs for a ride into the Underworld to find her missing lost love trapped against his will? Drive her, of course.

A writing in progress for the ONC 2024 based on the following prompts:
2. A true lover will always find their way back to you. But which is the way that connects the Underworld and the Land of the Living?
61. Your new car just might be the doorway to the underworld, and it needs more than gas to run.
62. There is something creepy about the new librarian at school.
