E-1 The Encounter

The Chronicles of Gideon Hughes

It is a simple fact that everyone will have at the least one date with death in their lifetime. His dark humor and particular taste for the finer things in life make him an interesting guest, welcomed or not. Each human has a unique story to tell, from their most tender moments to their darkest evils. Those stories provide a look into the human condition from all walks of life, viewed in those last moments before the inevitable. Some will plead for their lives while others concede to their demise. But rest assured, they will be escorted to the crossing over by death himself. It’s nothing personal really – he’s just doing his job. And he does it well. At least – no one has come back to complain.
