“Everyone! Please remain clam! We will find our way out!” yelled a voice over the anxious crowd. “We won’t die here. There is a way out and we will find it.” The voice originated from the group’s leader whom was standing on a raised platform. The rest of the group stopped talking and listened intently to their leader. “Will you all really let something as small as being lost in a forest stop you?” The group responded with shouts of no. This made the leader grin as they looked out over the crowd of 20. Suddenly a stranger cloaked in a hood emerged from the trees. He crossed the field and the group parted for him. He stopped in front of the leader. The stranger said nothing but handed them a sealed letter. He then turned around and walked back into the forest and disappeared. The leader carefully opened the letter and began reading aloud to the gathered people.
“Dear forest group, we regret to inform you that you won’t be leaving anytime soon. You see, the reapers have your group marked for death. There are four hidden among your numbers. Their goal is to capture all 16 of your souls. However, don’t lose hope just yet. There is still a way to prevent the reapers from capturing all your souls. Reapers can die just like you humans can. It’s what happens after death that is different. When humans die your souls get absorbed by reapers and move on to the afterlife and some rare few become reapers themselves. When reapers die they don’t have anywhere to go. They already went to the afterlife. When they die the earth mother reclaims their bodies and send them into the eternal abyss. You’ll know that you’ve killed a reaper when you feel the earth opening up. Good luck to you and your group.”
The group members panicked. “We’re all going to die” could be heard coming from
multiple people. “Everyone! You heard what the letter said! There is a way to get out of this! We just have to locate and kill the reapers and this cliff is a perfect place to start.” The group climbed to the top of the huge cliff. Any fall from there would instantly kill a person once they hit the ground. “Now we set up camp here and through anyone suspected of being a reaper to their death.” The group calmed down, but they had to worry.
Afterlife

Was this fight just for nothing?
Would they all die regardless?
