The End, Mr Black
(You must understand, magic is insubstantial, unable to pass beyond the world of the living. All that crosses the border with us – bound to us - are the records. As time erodes memory they will become your only link to life.)
The Books, Mr Black
(Every unkind word, every time you broke your promise or hurt a friend is in the first book.
Every time you made someone happy, every word of comfort you ever spoke is in the second book.)
The Judgement, Mr Black
(You might wish to consider which book is heavier.)
Now wait.
