The story follows Charon, the Ferryman of the Underworld, as he reflects on his unique role in transporting souls across the Styx. He takes pride in his monopoly over ferriage, relishing the power and exclusivity of his position. Charon's musings reveal his satisfaction with his clean record and the significance of being the intermediary between life and death. This narrative combines humor and philosophical musings, exploring themes of power, morality, and the afterlife through the eyes of a character often seen as a mere guide.
