It is curious, how the body can go on without the soul. We Reapers are careful to not take a soul until the body is already dead, regardless of whether it is too late or not. It is common courtesy. Still, the amount of already-dead souls in still-alive bodies astounds me.
Another friendly message from Iris and a sequel to my poem "from the Reapers". This is a series in progress I call Iris's Diary, mostly because it's the perspective of a Reaper I like to call Iris.
