Originals[]

The Grim Reaper centers his whole existence on collecting mortal souls, waiting to be reborn into his next reincarnation. It is the haunting of a lone spirit that insists the Reaper remember his past life instead... But the Reaper would rather not remember. He wants to move on. Though maybe the only way forward is to embrace the secrets that the past may hold.
