"God created the world on Monday, from a place of nothing into something.
God separated order and chaos on Tuesday, defining freedom and oppression.
God sorted each and every number on Wednesday, giving rise to wonderful and varied things.
God allowed time to flow on Thursday.
God looked at every corner of the world on Friday.
God rested on Saturday.
And God abandoned the world on Sunday."
The Story
The story is set in a world where people stopped giving birth, and even with their bodies damaged beyond repair, the dead can not find rest, unless they are buried by mysterious individuals known as "gravekeepers". According to legends, this happened because by that time, God had abandoned the world. The problem is there are less and less gravekeepers in the world, we're being killed off by those who are dead. My name is Ai I am the first gravekeeper born and set out with the task of killing the dead and burying them. The toughest thing about being a gravekeeper is killing them, these dead are not like the zombies you see in movies those mindless things that run around eating others. No, these dead are still very human in a mental sense. A family member could get shot in the head and get up and go on with their lives just as normal yet they won't age without a soul and the body won't heal either, they'll start to decompose, flesh will fall from the faces and so on. That's why we need to kill them and set their bodies to rest. There are currently only ten of us left. I am gathering you all here for a new job to learn more about the reasons why the world had reached such a state and to save the world...just don't die for I'll have no hard feelings putting you to rest.

Guide
How Gravekeepers are made:
Those on the brink of death who Ai Enma sees as worth are questioned. "A damned soul wallowing in sin...would you like to give death a try?" If the answer is yes the First Keeper kills the person and takes the soul, yet instead of sending it to hell she claims it as her own and gives the person a mark somewhere on the body
to sign the contract she has made with them. The person is revived and explained that they no longer have a soul and will no longer age like a human. A demon Guardian is summoned and with them a special shove is given to the person. Only with that shovel can a Gravekeeper have any power over the Souless(zombies) that walk the earth. The only way to reap a soul is by killing with that shovel and buried, otherwise the dead will keep rising. The Souls collected are given to the guardians who takes it down to Hell. New Graverkeepers spend a few years training and being taught by Ai before being sent off on their own.
Guardian:
These beings are in the form of animals that best suits the Gravekeeper. They are actually demons sent to watch over us and make sure we are doing our job. They speak telepathically with us and with the other Guardians as well as make reports to the Master. Only they can take the soul of their keeper to pits of hell when and if the time comes.
Soulless:
These are the dead that keep on living. Unlike Zombies they still retain their intelligence and memories after dying. The rise again and continue on with their lives for there is no heaven, angels, or God to guide them to peace, only Hell. They continue living but their body stops living, the easiest way to tell if one is a soulless is the disgusting smell they carry from their rotting corpse, or missing flesh, loss of hair, teeth and so on.
Swarm:
These are a group of Souless set out to kill Gravekeepers. Swarms are set up all over the place, a Gravekeeper never knows when they will meet one. If seen or found by one do not engage, it is better to live and fight another day than to die by the hands of a Swarm.
Souls:
These appear after a Gravekeeper kills and Buries a Soulless. They come in the shape of a tear drop and are usually hovering over the grave. The are almost always a light blue color, the darker the shade the soul, the more sins have been committed, the better. A Gravekeepers Souls is always in the hand of the First Keeper, should a Gravekeeper die the soul is taken by the Keepers Guardian and brought to Hell and a position is opened again.
Reapers:
These guys are bad news, former Gravekeepers gone rogue. It is possible to sever the contract between the first Keeper and the others, for every contract has its loopholes. To end a contract between the two a Gravekeeper must reap the soul of a demon, specifically, their Guardian. It is not an easy task but it can be done. Without the Guardian, Ai is unable to send the soul to hell. The Soul remains with Ai, and the former Keeper is added to her hit list, someone to hunt down and bury in due time. Until than they roam freely killing other Soulless and stealing the souls for their own.
