Paul is "Death"

I experienced the following dream in 1998.
This is the second episode of my experiences with/as "Death".

   I don't recall the details of the dream prior to this part. The setting was a restaurant with Karen and at least two other people seated at a single table. A figure appearing to be the "Grim Reaper" approached the table and asked me to come with him. He was tall, dressed in the classic gray burlap hooded cloak and spoke in a menacing deep voice. I was not scared at all because I was thinking to myself: "This guy can't be "Death", I'm "Death"* (*referring to dream where the Grim Reaper retires and gives me his job). I got up and went with him anyway just to see what was going on. He took me to a room and we went in closing the door behind us. Sitting around this small room were three or four other figures dressed as Grim Reapers. Their costumes varied slightly but were all fairly stereotypical. They had me sit at one end of the room and they all faced me. I felt that at this time that I too looked and sounded like the Grim Reaper. They then began to ask me trivia questions relating to obscure historic events. One I remember had to do with something that happened in France during the Renaissance or something like that. I managed to answer all the questions correctly and as I gave each right answer the figures slowly began to change from Grim Reapers to normal looking men and conversely, I became a larger and more imposing Grim Reaper. After only a few questions I was the only Grim Reaper left in the room and at that point I couldn't be bothered this these Grim Reaper imposter mortals and got up and left the room. I don't remember anything after that.

And then there were three....

If I die before you do. You may be seeing me again when your time comes!
