Blanc, the King of Gehenna, and Eucraick, the former Grim Reaper turned adviser to the king, convened in private after dinner. The grand chamber they occupied was illuminated by the warm glow of torches, casting dancing shadows across the polished stone walls.
Seated upon his ornate throne, Blanc regarded Eucraick with a gaze that bespoke both authority and compassion.
"How fares our young reaper, Amon, in the human world?" he inquired, his voice resonating with paternal concern.
Eucraick, ever composed, met the king's gaze with a respectful nod. "Amon is adapting admirably to his new role," he replied, his tone measured yet reassuring. "Despite the challenges he faces, he remains steadfast in his duties, guiding souls with diligence and compassion."
The king's brow furrowed slightly, a hint of worry creasing his regal features.
