[WP] Your car breaks down in the middle of the desert and you have no cell reception. You begin walking, and just as you finish off your last water bottle, you see a ghost town. You walk towards it, and as soon as you step foot in it, you find yourself there in a time when it wasn't abandoned.

[WP] "Alright, so you're the new Sheriff for the town. You'll die quickly, just like all the others that put on the badge". That is what the town undertaker said to you on your first day on the job. Thing is, you never died, to this day, you still live.

[WP] You've lived a long time, avoiding death at every turn. One day, there's a knock at your door. It's Death and he says "Alright, here's what's going to happen, you and I are going to play a game of chess. If I win, you die. If you win, you gain immortality".

[WP] The new hire to work as Death started out always kind and caring toward the souls he had to reap and bring to the next phase of the afterlife. However, after a few centuries of doing this, he has one last soul to take care of, and honestly, he can't be bothered to be sympathetic at this point.
