Balor has served as the Keeper of the Dead for literal eons and as the years have gone by, he's grown tired of the job. He'd much rather spend his time frequenting his favorite haunts and overindulging on cider than keeping up with the ever-growing demands of the dead. Still, when the ruler of the Underworld herself grows fed up with his party-going ways and threatens to assign him an assistant, Balor knows it's time to get his act together. Balor works alone; he always has. And he refuses to let that change. --- An Honorable Mention and the @antiheroesgalore Profile Pick in the Halloween Vault 2023 contest. Inspired by the prompt from @antiheroesgalore: "You've been the Keeper of the Dead for eons, but you were never very good at the job. The dead have such demands and you'd much rather spend Halloween visiting your favorite haunts. But this year, things don't work out as well as they do each year."
