He’s never been able to prevent a single death in 45 years despite his best efforts. How does he live with this curse? Is it possible to use his power to ease the suffering of others and transform his curse into a blessing? Juniper, the love of his life believed so, but she’s been gone almost thirty years and he’s close to giving up.
