Summary: Death was announced to the long ballroom as the Grand Duke John of the West, which was interesting as choices of names went. Death wondered sometimes what people saw on the card, or the letters of invitation, or the stone tablets before that.

A tall thin Omega woman in a black wool dress leaned against the gold trimmed wall as if she was doing it a favour. The Omega, Sherlock, because Death knew her name, Death knew everyone's name, was holding a white cloth clutched in her hand flecked with red. She said, "I am not going to die tonight." That was true.

She really was the most interesting human Death had met in a very, very long time.
