The ending of this path, I can see it. Not long now until I reach the over world. Screams of mercy and forgiveness rach louder. Numbing my ears. Then silence.
I now stand at the doors that connect spirits. Its towering over me. Feelings of regret and doubt.'should I keep going? Why? What's the point?'
T-these thoughts... why now of all times do i feel them?
After an eternity fighting demons and all the sins that were put on my souls why now. Why?
Now is not the t-time to think.
My hand reaches for the world of the l-living.
My-my mind. It hurt.
Hur.hurst hurrr-AAHH-AHHH NO!
It's this place that's doing this to me. Remove my hand quickly. Gain your sanity. Your mind. Remove the doubts. Remove the regrets.
Now push through the sides. Use such a swiftness that not even the gods can stop.
Swoosh~
The way through. What was clouded is gone. Pure light shines the greyed path behind me. Making it turn to dust. I see myself. Where I died. My corpse...
My skeleton.
How long has my eternity here been. Millions? Billions?. Too many years to reach the exit of hell. From the city of blood to boiling mud that moves like quicksand swallowing the cries for help. To the harsh winds of I'll given love. To many layers to get to here. Purgatory.
My corpse seems to have been taken by the dirt and still has flesh on it. Even peices of clothing remain on the bones. How long has it been on the overworld?
How much faster is it here than there? Time moves faster here it seems.
As I take my first step I hear it.
The rattling of bones. The sound of a wooden pole and cloth moving in a wind nothing but it can feel. Black fog shrouded my lower half.
I haven't seen him in a long time.
"Hello there. Death..." I say
"~you speak s~so nonchalantly without fear of my appearance, krys?" Its voice was croaked, broken sounding like a man trying to speak with little life left in him.
"Are you here to stop me from my revenge on those bastards?"
I ask him.
stood silent. It's been a minute already until death spoke once more.
"~You made many enemies with the time y~you've had in hell Krys... just remember that if-... when you return... you'll be welcomed with open A-a-arms."
Looks like he won't be stopping me.
"~you achieved the impossible Krys. Your the first to leave this place after being placed here by the gods." Said death.
What does he mean first to leave after being sent here.
"What do you mean?"
"T~thousands of years before your existence. Another came amongst~ the dead to find his wife and take to the city of angels. I failed to stop that man from coming to hell and leaving with the one placed here".
I smiled. Something funny after he said.
" ha... seems I contradict this man in nearly every way. I went through hell to mortality to kill the ones I despise. I have now wasted enough time. I'll see you again. Death"
"~Until T-then Krys."
I finally walk through the way to the mortal realm.
I'm coming... Heroes Pary.
