The autumn leaves crunched below your feet as you walked through the quietness of the woods. While doing so, you stopped in your tracks after seeing the body of another animal, most likely a prey to the many predators around the area.
Crouching down, you reached out and closed your eyes to sense the presence of the crow's soul.
After finding it, the animal cawed and hid behind some leaves, trying to hide from you, as if refusing to believe nor accept its demise.
"Pitiful" You muttered before reaching out, letting the animal know that you aren't there to hurt it.
After managing to calm the bird down, it walked up onto your palm, laying on it before curling up and crying.
Just another day of work for you.
After letting the crow perch on a tree along with the other souls of its kind, you walked off before stopping to look up at the sky.
Vultures circled the skies above as they flew over the dead body of the crow. Looking down at the ground, some red spider lilies sprouted in the area, barely seen by the naked eye.
"Reaper!" A joyful voice broke the silence and despair as you spotted the locks of golden blond hair skipping over to you.
"How'd work go?" He asked in a somber tone, his eyes losing their light for the briefest of moments to show his sadness and grief.
