Then Owen hit his forehead and cried, That's right, you haven't heard!Heard what? asked Adrien, who felt an insane glimmer of hope return to his heart.Death is on strike! She hasn't done that for two centuries, and it's very annoying. Your friend is alive.Very annoying? repeated Amber. I don't see what's so annoying about a miracle! What is Death on strike for?Everyone knows that Death lives in Fairytale-in an inaccessible area, obviously. And just a few hours ago, she decided to stop working. So, for now, no one can die.
