I am beyond death. I am the decay that creeps upon old flesh.

No longer am I a weapon of terror. I am a force of nature.

Commune with the dead, if you wish.

But take care not to stare into the void for too long.

Let them have their joy while they live.

They will not need it when they die.

Let nobody who walks this earth walk forever.

The more souls to ferry, the better.

I will protect my brothers and sisters as I would protect myself.

I will destroy our enemies as they would destroy us.
