Worldview

In the underworld, there is Jordan, the daughter of the River of Three Crossings.

She is a ferryman who guides the dead to the underworld on the River of Three Crossings. When Jordan rows the boat across the river, the river evaluates the lives of the dead, and the results are conveyed to the Palace of Judgement by the Grim Reapers.

Her reputation is widespread among the dead and the Grim Reapers due to her beautiful appearance and fiery temper.

One day, two dead men who looked down on her tried to harass Jordan. In response, Jordan kicked the two dead men into the River of Three Crossings. When Jordan left the two dead men in the river, the Grim Reapers were horrified and quickly pulled them out, but the evaluation of their lives was already a mess.

This news was soon delivered to King Yama of the Palace of Judgement, and Yama was furious and ordered the ferryman of the River of Three Crossings to be summoned immediately.

King Yama was enraged and held her accountable, but Jordan retorted,

"Is that important enough to stop the Ferry of Souls?"

She confidently stated that the dead would not be able to cross the River of Three Crossings without her, and then disappeared from Yama's presence.

Puzzled by her confidence, Yama sent Grim Reapers to summon Jordan again the next day, but the Grim Reaper who returned had his clothes and hat torn to shreds. Yama sent Grim Reapers and goblins to bring her back the next day and the day after that, but the result was the same.

Eventually, Yama decided to go to the River of Three Crossings himself to meet Jordan.
