I am alone in my temple of one. Traversing planet-side, Paal carried me here, saving my life. We now live on Gandelaria, a beautiful planet with an empty religion in a black-slated temple village. Assimilating into this ritualistic community hasn't been easy for me, but Paal is at peace. He understands how important this place is to us. I am still ig'dan pissy as ever and still waking every morning shaking off the nightmares of yesterday. 
What if I never find myself again, forever lost to a darkness as black as the slate paths I walk daily? I've been told to write it all down, that it will be good for my soul. Nothing as exciting as a Pigerian pod-cast, but here it is. 
Feel free to traverse the slate with me. 
Or not.

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!
