In Karas time, death was closermore real than ever. Death was absolutely everywhere, in so many forms: murder, plague, famine. Fear had been spread so far and so wide; there wasnt much hope left. But Karabeing so young and so shelteredwasnt completely aware. She knew only mere outlines and shadows of what was going on. She lived her comfortable, wealthy life with no worries at all. She knew he was dangerous. She knew there was something horribly wrong with him. So Kara ran. Death isnt something you can run from, however, as she soon learns. She cannot escape and is doomed. Except . . . even as she learns his horrid secret and lives with his lies and pain, she lives on. Kara grows comfortable with the life she never wanted and lives for much longer than anyone thought she would. Theodore is Death, nonetheless, and she dies at his mercy. Gone forever, she can only pray that her son doesnt meet the same fate. Her spirit lives, survives the countless ages, and tells her storyall of it. The story of innocence . . . of despair; of loss, love, and finally . . . her death. Skeletons dont stay behind locked doors for long. They come out, and when they do, things never go the way we may want them to. But even as Kara and so many others becomes just another skeleton locked behind Deaths doors, despair may reign but hope lingers still. Theodore never wanted any of it. All he had ever wanted was to grow old and watch his children and grandchildren grow up. He loved his wife and was very happy. That is until a horrible evil wrenches its way into Theodores happiness. Now immortal, his life shattered and torn, Theodore waits, wanting revenge. Time flies by, and he doesnt change. After so many lives hes taken, after so many losses hes suffered, the past still haunts him. The evil still lurks, and the world is powerless. Theodore is powerless. He has no peace, and all that he loves is stolen. Stolen by the ancient evil that he serves. The worst horror of all is yet to happen for him, and when it does, it brings about a powerful change. Whether the change is good or bad, Theodore has no idea. But he will soon find out.
