IC:
They have taken me to a graveyard, it appears. You may see this as my natural habitat, being a god of death, but that is not true. The place I am most often is at the death of mortals, of course, as I am basically the grim reaper, I take souls to Hades for judgement.
So, back to the graveyard. I look at who is there, and, surprisingly, I see some rather famous people. Sir Francis Bacon, who brought Tudor England the glorious potato, is one of the most notable there.
I have been here for at least half an hour now, nothing has really happened. They say my name is here, and I'm sure it is, in one form ore the other. I have many names: Thanatos, Death, The Grim Reaper, Hades' Lieutenant (OOC: pronounced LEFT not loo!), and many others. People see me as a force of evil, of death, but they are mistaken. I just take souls that are meant to die, those whose strings have been cut by the fates.
I look around for one of my names, but all of the graves seem to go without mentioning one, they rather use innuendos, such as 'the end', but they aren't really a name of mine.
Suddenly, I see a huge tombstone, cracked and eroded. How did I miss it before? This graveyard is certainly full of surprises.
I walk up to it, slightly creeped out, but not much, I have seen much creepier places in my 5000+ years as a deity, although people have probably realised that by now I am vincible, although in a much different sense to a mortal or human.
The facility did tell me about this site. It has people who have obviously been killed by this person who made the place, and it is full of people all todo with immortality.
I begin to read the tribute to the unlucky person whose gravestone this is.
Here lies, not a man, but a being of a similar kind. He has gone for millennia with not even a thought of his death, of its sweet embrace.
This one is longer than the others, for certain. And there, I have found my name.
But eventually, did he finally do so, if only for a few fleeting moments, before his end was brought swiftly upon him, by me, the grave-sculptor.
So, here lies death himself, the taker of souls, the grim reaper, he who is the one who will take his own soul, Thanatos.
Oh shit. Oh shit, oh shit, shitshithitshitshitshit.
I turn around, start to run, my sword a shortsword in my hand as I run.
A shadowy figure appears ahead of me, and I swing my sword at him, now a scythe. He moves away, and moves forward as my guard is down from the momentum of the swing. I turn it into a dagger, and begin to run, as fast as I can, towards the gate. It is open, and as I dive through, the figure almost touches me, missing me by a breadth of a hair.
I roll and get to my feet, my sword a broadsword now. I look into the graveyard, and so is the shadowy figure, as well as...my...
Grave.
