Just as if this day didn't have enough of twists and surprises, the owner of this new voice that dared to butt in the proceedings of my trials, was no one else than Gabriel himself!
As soon as people realised who was trying to squeeze in-between them in order to reach the central square, the crowd itself loosened up, allowing their missing leader to approach me and instantly fall to his knees.
"This humble subject report to the master!"
Just a single look at his face, and then his entire body told me quite a lot about what this poor man had to go through to reach this place. When I left this dimension the last time, his age was barely showing due to the positive influence of this place on all my subjects, with their own energy efficiently nourishing them and keeping them healthy, yet despite all that influence, right now, he was nothing more than just a wreck of a human.
