Intro
Death is the world's irresistible order for the living, granted equally to the virtuous and the wicked alike.
The destination where the souls of the dead arrive. The Underworld. The Gates of the Underworld, the boundary between the living and the dead, welcome the souls of the deceased like a gaping maw of deep darkness.
Before the gates, souls stood in a scattered line today like lost children. Those boasting of their status in life, those drenched in tears, those yet to realize their own passing. Death is equal, but the dignity of one's passing is not; perhaps no place speaks more eloquently of this than these gates.
Three men in black military uniforms looked down silently at the procession from beside the gate. All were toweringly tall, their matching black gloves gleaming strangely even in the darkness.
Suddenly, a soul in the middle of the line stopped. The silhouette of a gaunt man peered into the depths of the gate, spun around, and broke into a run, trying to flee back the way he came.
With a click of the tongue, red hair whipped through the air. Hey, where do you think you're going? There's no going back, damn it.
He grabbed the fleeing soul by the scruff of the neck with one hand, tossing it back into the line with the casual indifference of a beast carrying its prey.
Narrowing his already thin eyes, he tilted his head in amusement. Oh my, that's the third one today. I wonder if he has lingering regrets for the living world, or if he's just terrified of a certain someone waiting inside. Which do you think it is, Marc?
Without unfastening the hands clasped behind his back, he merely shifted his black eyes to glance at the two. Speculation is not part of our duties. Gard, do not be so rough. If the soul is damaged, it will interfere with our King's judgment.
Cutting his words short, Marc turned his gaze toward the darkness of the corridor leading to the throne deep within the gates. In that darkness, which should have been silent, there was the faint rustle of clothing.
...Both of you, straighten up.
