This is a short poetic story based on characters from the Magicians series.

I am beyond life,

I am beyond strife,

I am long beyond my last breath,

I'm among the angelic host,

some call me a ghost,

I awoke one day dead or as good as dead,

I knew not how it was even possible me being a ghost

as I was the king of the grim reapers, so I cannot die in a normal way as this to become a ghost.
