* [[DontFearTheReaper Death]] getting angry is always awesome in itself, so his fury when he sees that the new death wears a crown and sees himself as a ruler rather than just someone with a necessary job to do is a sight to behold.

** [[spoiler:"But Bill Door was already rising and unfolding like the wrath of kings. He reached behind him, growling, living on loaned time, and his hands closed around the harvest scythe. The crowned Death saw it coming and raised its own weapon but there was very possibly nothing in the world that would stop the worn blade as it snarled through the air, rage and vengeance giving it an edge beyond any definition of sharpness.
