Thank you for the reviews of the previous chapter hoopznyoyoand and Princess Rosalind of Underland
"He might want to consider how bad where it takes him could be."
That is a very good point! Which you may see soon lol also I may be showing what's going on with Cersei again soon, too!
He hesitated before approaching the strange wall. What would happen if he was correct about it being a way to travel to the different hells? He didn't know where to go. The last thing he wanted was to be lost in one of the hells, so before proceeding further wouldn't it be wise to determine which of the seven hells she was in?
He believed he was currently in The Father's Hell, where he had been sent following his death. The Father's Hell was said to punish the ignorant and prideful. He recalled hearing how those who go there were subject to being broken on a wheel. Cersei was definitely guilty of pride and ignorance, but he hadn't seen her there with him. Of course, it was quite vast, but surely as they had died at the same time they would have resurrected so to speak in the same location. He was also certain she was far guiltier of other sins. So he ruled The Father's Hell out.
He recalled there was also The Mother's Hell, The Crone's Hell, The Maiden's Hell, the Warriors Hell, The Smith's Hell, and The Strangers Hell. Quickly he tried to determine which ones of those he could rule out.
The Smiths' Hell was easy to rule out as it was where the lazy went. Cersei had been guilty of a lot of sins, but laziness hadn't been one of them.
The Maiden's Hell was where the promiscuous went. If Tyrion died and was sent to hell, Jaime was certain that would be where he would end up. Cersei though? He had heard how Cersei had fucked Lancel years ago, and knew she had fucked Euron as well. However, Cersei had done both those not out of lust, but out of wanting to get them to do her bidding. So he didn't think she would be in The Maiden's Hell either.
The next two were harder to rule out.
The Crone's Hell was one of those two. It was where those who overindulged in material things went. Cersei's wine-drinking had, of course, come to mind. However, even though he was certain she was guilty of overindulgence, he knew she had committed greater sins.
The Mother's Hell was said to be full of greedy people who refused to share. People who cared more about material goods than those around them went to this hell. Cersei had never been good at sharing, but she had cared more for her children and him, he hoped, than she had for material things. So he ruled out this hell as well.
Having ruled out five of the seven hells he focused on the remaining two. He wasn't sure which one Cersei would be in.
The Warrior's Hell was for those who enjoyed inflicting pain on others. Those who were cruel and sadistic would end up there. Ramsay Bolton was certainly there and he feared Joffrey was there as well. Not that he cared, but Cersei certainly would. If she happened upon him it would destroy her. Cersei too had enjoyed torturing people. Anyone who wronged her in the slightest she would have sent to Qyburn. She had laughed and laughed when watching Ellaria Sand's torture, as well as Septa Unella's. Not that he could blame her in either case. She had also enjoyed torturing those who had committed lesser crimes against her. She had even managed to capture the man who had spit on her during her walk of shame. She had been ecstatic when finding out that Ser Gregor had a liking for men as well. The man had screamed and screamed while Ser Gregor had raped him to death and Cersei had laughed and laughed. There was a good chance Wrath was where Cersei was.
The Strangers Hell was for those who seek to cheat death through artificial means. As well as those who used magic to kill others. Stannis Baratheon would certainly be in that hell, perhaps Qyburn too. It was also known that those who Envy what others have and seek to take it for their own would end up in this hell. Cersei had always wanted the best. She'd wanted his birthright even, telling him it should have been hers. She'd wanted Rhaegar and the Crown too long ago and had never gotten over it when The Mad King choose Elia. Then later, when Rhaegar had run away with Lyanna, she'd hated her so much. The things she'd said about her and the things she'd wanted to do to her. Cersei was happier over Lyanna's death then she was sad about Rhaegar's. "At least now I will be Queen." she'd remarked. There was a good chance Envy was where Cersei was.
Now the question was, would she be more likely to be in the Strangers Hell, or in the Warriors Hell?
I'd love to know who else other than my 2 regular commenters and my beta are reading this! This chapter was very difficult to write. Well, not the chapter so much but figuring out which of the seven asoiaf hells would correlate to each sin. Did I do well? Let me know!
