About

As you all might know, being dead does not mean being unable to die again. What happens when you die twice? Nobody knows, but everyone is fairly certain that an after-afterlife is utter rubbish and an absurd fairytale.What is certain is that being lost in Niflheim, the land of the dead, is inconvenient.
