'Through me you enter into the city of woes
Through me you enter into eternal pain,
Through me you enter the population of loss.

Abandon all hope, you who enter here.'

It's reminiscent, isn't it?

It is the truth here.. until a simple pleasure distracts the pain. The joy will overcome it for hours, days, while the darkness waits.

Though I am

Did you have fun?

[satsujin_ai]

With you, or do you refer to the past few days?

Which ring of Hell would you liken the city to, or would simply say that the city is only the entrance to Hell?

[satsujin_ai]

I believe there ought to be a sign at the outskirts with these words written upon it.

Even then, I suppose people would forget.. for a time.

[angelic_lawyer]

Could the city really be Hell, then? The point is that one doesn't forget that that is where they are, that there is no hope for forgiveness of sins and no respite from eternal torment.

[satsujin_ai]

Their despair calls these words to mind, yet they do forget, only to repeat the cycle. In this way, perhaps it is more akin to purgatory than hell.

If they did not receive their respite, the pain would not seem as fresh, as shocking each time.

Darkness, huh.

[satsujin_ai]

It is patient, is it not?

[theforceoncrack]

Always.

[ys_cant_die]

And in which level do you reside?

[satsujin_ai]

Oh I consider myself a free agent, thus far.

[ys_cant_die]

That's not playing by the rules.

I would be a bleeding tree.

[satsujin_ai]

I might have guessed..

Yet you live, child.

[skybound_love]

It's negative thinking, is all.

[satsujin_ai]

Oh refreshing simplicity, as per usual.

[skybound_love]

Pardon?

[satsujin_ai]

You should take the compliment.
