Azrael
Memento Mori
Azrael always liked that saying. To him, it's a perfect reminder that regardless of your age, gender, or status in life, you will die. We all come to the same end; with you getting a free ride with the God of Death himself. Over time, Azrael had met pretty much every type of person. From commonfolk to royalty, Azrael had seen them all. He's seen the despair that mortals face when confronted by death. The utter sadness and hopelessness on their face when it's time to hop on Azrael's little boat to the afterlife. Sometimes, he'll see someone with a look of freedom on their face. Everyday, every hour, every second. Someone out there dies and it would fall on him to escort them. After centuries of doing this, Azrael thought that he'd seen it all.
That was until the All-Father met the same fate as mere mortals.
Valsen died as peacefully as possible. Zenaida, his twin sister and the Goddess of Life, tried her best but it was not enough. In the end, even the All-Father took a seat on Azrael's boat. No one will ever mention it but the spirits swear that they all heard the God of Death sob as they got closer to the Afterlife. The Land Beyond Life, as Valsen called it, was a strange place. Not even he could fully explain it. The whole experience was... surreal to put it lightly.
Now, the Pantheon was to be tested. Valsen's absence created a void. A new King must be crowned. Preferably as quickly and as peacefully as possible. Oh, and with as little deaths as possible. Azrael smiled to himself. His brothers and sisters were far from a happy family. Egos will rise and tempers will flare. There's a reason why they all avoided each other as much as possible. Sure, sometimes they will see each other and have a small chat but never has the whole family been together in the same room. The idea amused and terrified Azrael. He certainly didn't want to bring any more family members on a boat ride.
The Grand Contest for the Throne was about to begin.
