Greetings and welcome to the Underworld.

You do not need to know my name just like I do not need to know yours.

I am far more superior than you are, and quite frankly, even if you told me your name, I would soon forget it. After all, there are billions of you that come to the Underworld every minute.

If you are reading this module then you probably are a demon, a ghoul, a poltergeist, an entity, or a spirit who needs training.

Do not worry!

By the time you are done with these modules, you’ll become an expert in making your targeted life form miserable.

So, what are we waiting for?!

Let’s start with lesson number one:

Find what makes your target tick!

Are they a well-organized being? If so, make a mess!

Are they into energy conservation? Then throw a rave! Flicker those lights! Mess with their playlist and make sure to ruin their favourite songs. 

My personal favourite is changing their favourite song into something they would find irritating, or I would be messing with the volume or the tempo. Oh, just remembering the frustrated groans sometimes makes me envious of you, newbies. But then I remember getting attached…not a great time.

Now, some of you are introverts or have lived your life as life-form pleasers.

So, let me bluntly say this: haunting life forms is not for the weak. Being irritating is a lot more work than you thought it ever would be. Of course, some of you are naturally annoying…that’s why you’re here.

Anyhow, if you are an introvert or a people pleaser, this task should come easy.

Firstly, most life forms cannot see you, and if they can, they will scream. Kudos, if they do! That is free energy you just harvested.

Secondly, you’re providing these life forms valuable service! Without energy for the Underworld, these life forms like you previously were, would have nowhere to go when they die!

Imagine being in an endless void for all eternity.

Been there than that. It was boring.

And lastly, if you do not do your job, YOU will be the source of the much-needed energy.

It was not a choice.

YOU are here because you somehow gathered enough karmic energy to land this position. If you want to have a better afterlife, then you better put your back into it.

Just like Eve did. Our star candidate!

Anyhow, fear is not always an option since your life form may also be too dead inside. Therefore, annoying them may just be as productive in gathering energy that the Underworld needs.

Make sure to note these down and be prepared for the next lesson. And oh, before I leave you be, a note from good old Luci:

“To whoever that keeps stealing my apple pudding, please replace it. If you don’t, I will come find you and you will become an ingredient to my apple pudding.

Love, Luci. Xoxo.”

You heard Him. Go replace that pudding and I wish you good luck on your first week!

    Lovely short read as always, loved the playfulness of the storytelling and makes the underworld seem like a bubbly (lava may be included haha) and mischievous place. Definitely could see myself vacationing here, albeit I have to work a bit to earn the right to vacation in this place but that's no problem, a little hard work never harmed anyone ^^.
