[likescats]

[Phone: A voice appears in your head.]

IF ANYONE NEEDS TO GET TO A SAFE PLACE. I WILL BE HAPPY TO ASSIST YOU.

I WILL ALSO BE ASSISTING ANYONE WHOSE SOULS SHOULD HAVE MOVED ON BY NOW. I'M AFRAID THAT THIS HELP IS NOT UP FOR DEBATE.

[Action:

A. Death walks the streets of Mayfield. He is looking for anyone who might need help. Stop and stare? Ask for help

[Terra rushes forward, chanting a spell.]

Cure!

[The healing magic hits the zombie and it falls from Death's arm, groaning.]

Are you okay?

[likescats]

QUITE FINE. THANK YOU.

[allnaturalmagic]

Did it bite you? I can try to heal the infection...

[She reaches for his arm, but when she touches him...]

...Oh.

[likescats]

THERE'S NOT MUCH TO BITE.

[allnaturalmagic]

I... suppose not.

Your voice... I've spoken to you on the phones, haven't I?

[likescats]

YES. I BELIEVE WE WERE DISCUSSING LIFE.

[allnaturalmagic]

That's right.

When you said that you are death... I didn't think you meant... like this.

[likescats]

IT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT WOULD OCCUR TO MOST PEOPLE.

[allnaturalmagic]

No, it isn't...

[Hesitantly, she reaches out to touch his hand.]

So you're really... dead...?

[likescats]

[All bone.]

NO. I AM DEATH. I WAS NEVER ALIVE TO BEGIN WITH.
