In a remote valley of the Aragonese Pyrenees the legend of Armugan is told. It is said that he is dedicated to a mysterious and terrible profession, the likes of such that no one dares to speak. They say that Armugan moves through the valleys clinging to the body of Anchel, his faithful servant and together they share the secret of a work as old as life, as terrible as death itself.

Armugan is the angel of the abyss whom no one wishes to entrust themselves to, but becomes necessary when decay sweeps away the fantasy of eternity with which men hide the relentless reality. However, he does not kill, he is not a murderer. He possesses a radical wisdom that allows him to help one to rid themselves of the greatest of sufferings: the fear of dying.
