Death was the end...
Every being that possessed life lived so it could die one day. It was common knowledge that once that day arrived, it was all over.
This reality made life precious. Many sought power so they would never die. And some of them did succeed, while others didn't...
Cain never thought he would be one of those people who didn't succeed.
'To think I'd be the first to die. And so soon at that. I was convinced it would be that crazy Manny.' Cain said to himself.
Looking around, he found himself in a very odd situation.
'Am I really dead?'
Although all the evidence pointed towards this conclusion, he still wasn't very sure he was dead.
And that was because this wasn't how he had imagined the afterlife would be...
Cain kept looking around, his mind becoming more and more baffled. For starters, all he could see for miles on end was a huge body of water that stretched on forever. And he was seated on that body of water, dressed in a plain white robe.
