'Despair is the damp of hell, as joy is the serenity of heaven'
-John Donne, 1572-1631
Prologue
What is life? Is it simply being able to breath and being warm? And what is death? Is it just a state of when a body is cold and cannot do its functions?
Life and death has a cycle. When one dies, there must be another to replace it. That is how the planet balances its life on it. And dead souls go to land of dead, where it is divided into two parts- heaven and hell. Heaven is where the benevolent spirits rest and spend the rest of their second life in happiness.
And hell, as you may know, is a different story.
Hell is where the wicked souls are sent. Where they will stay in torture and punishment until they repay their sins they have done in their life on the planet's surface. Some may never leave the dark, forsaken land, while others may only stay there for a few days.
Hell is the most manic place in the planet. A dark cave-like dungeon where screams of agony echo among stonewalls. Where the unimaginable kinds of torture takes place. Where the wicked indeed cannot have rest.
My friends, let me tell you about a man who resides in one of these chambers right now, and how he came to be hereā¦
