Just know that I have the answers to any question you might possibly have.<br/>L: Ok, who am I?<br/>N: I will not tell you.<br/>L: …<br/>M: …<br/>N: You will have to find that out yourself. So I'm sure you're wondering why you are here.<br/>L: We don't even know what "here" is.<br/>M: Other than the fact that there are walls and a floor, you're not really giving us much to work with.<br/>N: Fair point.<br/><br/>𝙉 𝙤𝙥𝙚𝙣𝙨 𝙖 𝙬𝙞𝙣𝙙𝙤𝙬<br/><br/>N: We are floating very high up. This room is just one of my many creations. I figured it would be very nice for us to hold our conversation before you depart.<br/>L: Depart?<br/>N: Yes. This brings me to the point of why you are here. Many of you had strong beliefs about heaven, hell, purgatory. I guarantee you that none of it is real.<br/>M: For real?<br/>N: Yes<br/>M: So what about the crimes people committed on earth?<br/>N: You really think someone has the time to monitor over 7 billion of you and check in on you 24/7? In order to be fair, we just give everyone a chance to show themselves after death. Good or bad will be judged here. You have way more control over the situation than you think.<br/>L: I'm guessing this is one of the reasons we can't remember anything.<br/>N: Correct. So this is a door. This door opens once and closes once. You are to set off on a very straight road and you will be faced with multiple instances from your past lives. The best part is you can either choose to stay in one or leave and find another one to stay in but your choices are limited. Oh and you can't turn back. To those that can choose to not live in any reality or what you choose to call it will be given one wish but this wish only comes to those who can get to the end of the road. Any wish will be granted… There will be terms and conditions of course.<br/>R: There is no catch to this?<br/>N: No, none at all. You can only stay in one event for an hour. Failure to leave means you will be forced to remain whether you like it or not. Wait, when did you wake up?<br/>R: Heaven… hell… not real. For someone that has the answers to all questions, shouldn't you know this?<br/>N: Don't be ridiculous. I knew, I just wanted to see if you were a liar. Ahem. So that's basically it. You there have been awfully quiet.<br/>A: The whole thing is just crazy and you are way too calm about everything. Who are you?<br/>L: Right, you can't tell us who we are so just tell us who you are.<br/>N: Ok.<br/>A: …<br/>L: …<br/>M: …<br/>N: … what?<br/>L: Tell us who you are.<br/>N: Oh I won't tell you now. All things in due time and now it's time for you to leave.<br/><br/>𝙏𝙝𝙚𝙮 𝙗𝙚𝙜𝙞𝙣 𝙩𝙤 𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙧𝙤𝙤𝙢 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙙𝙤𝙤𝙧 𝙨𝙡𝙤𝙬𝙡𝙮 𝙘𝙡𝙤𝙨𝙚𝙨 𝙨𝙝𝙪𝙩<br/><br/>N: Well if there's one thing I can tell you, it's that one of the things I told you was a lie.<br/><br/>𝙏𝙝𝙚𝙮 𝙡𝙤𝙤𝙠 𝙗𝙖𝙘𝙠 𝙞𝙣 𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙛𝙪𝙨𝙞𝙤𝙣<br/>𝙉 𝙨𝙢𝙞𝙡𝙚𝙨 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙬𝙖𝙫𝙚𝙨<br/>𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙙𝙤𝙤𝙧 𝙘𝙡𝙤𝙨𝙚𝙨.<br/></p>

It's the author, Taki.

I'm sure it's hard to get used to remembering the characters by letters but don't worry, it won't last forever and I'm sure the script format I'm using might be troublesome for some of you but I'll get better at writing soon enough.

This is my first work of fiction and I hope you stick around with me for this
