Death's Apprentice

I was going insane, and no one noticed. My head was full of blood and death. They knew something was wrong, but they ignored it. They ignored me.

Each night, I see my loved ones die right in front of me. I was too late, every time.

Then she came. Death offered me a position. She wanted me to become her apprentice, to one day replace her as a death god. In return, I can save the ones I love.

The choice wasn't difficult.
