Albert Grey

An unassuming young man who lives with his great aunt and works for her in the her magical antiquary and artifacts boutique.  He traveled to the city to escape the destruction of the epidemic that swept through his hometown, an epidemic that also ended up being fatal for his parents.  His father was a mortician and had started teaching his son the family business before his untimely death, so Albert only thought it commonplace to continue his funerary education in the city.
