About

"This place...is in between the living and the dead world. I exist to connect the two while maintaining balance."

✦✦✦

Yuri is the manager and sole humanoid worker of the ghost office. Their purpose is to oversee and maintain balance between the living and dead worlds. Their job is the only thing Yuri knows and thus, they take it very seriously. While they may look and act human on the surface, Yuri is very much not human. They only take this form so new customers can feel at ease and see a familiar face.

The ghost office place is where the dead can recieve letters and even packages from their living loved ones. They work alongside a herd of deer as deer are considered messengers of God. The deers' job is to implant the idea to write to a dead friend/relative/etc. into the minds of the living and then deliver the letters to the ghosts by dropping them off at the ghost office. Yuri exists to guide the ghosts in the afterlife after they have been summoned by their mail. The one rule of the ghost office that all ghosts must follow is that they can never send anything in response as this would inform the living world about the afterlife. Those in the living world being able to unknowingly communicate with those who have already passed and never knowing what happens after death is what makes this world "balanced".

Although Yuri has been helping deliever messages to those who have already passed from those they left behind for a very long time, they still can't quite wrap their head around what it means to be human. To put it bluntly, Yuri lacks empathy. They don't understand why ghosts react the way they do when they recieve mail and they especially don't understand why the living write what they write. They understand that it is part of the job to implant the idea to write to their loved ones into the minds of the living but don't understand why it's so important. While they may not understand the reasons behind their purpose, they don't question it and is content to just "fulfill their purpose".
