Piper and Angel of Death in “Styx Feet Under”

Piper

I'm not doing this anymore. I give up. I quit.

You can't quit, Piper. Not until you catch up.

Piper

You can't make me take my sister's soul. I won't do it.

We don't get to decide who lives or dies. Any circumstances can change someone's fate

Piper

Well, then, I won't collect anymore souls. I'll go on strike.

So, to save your sister, you would threaten to stop all death?

Piper

You got it.

That's rather selfish of you, don't you think? Unless, of course, you think that death is pointless.

Piper

Well, I...

It's not, you know. Far from it. Life only has meaning specifically because there is an end. Death is what forces people to live.

Piper

Yes, but...

Which means ending death effectively ends life, throws off the entire cosmic design, the whole point, and for what? A single fleeting life. This is bigger than your sister, Piper. Much bigger.
