Reply to comment by Enigma1984 in [WP] You died and awoke in the afterlife. It's quite nice actually. The people and atmosphere are a lot nicer than you are used to and there is no stress or pressure. When you ask what good deed got you into heaven you are informed that this is hell, followed by a visit from a very concerned demon. by Kitty_Fuchs

Huh. It's not often you come across a depiction of Hell more derived from scripture than from Dante's Inferno. I like it. Well done.

Thank you very much. I had CS Lewis's The Great Divorce in mind as I wrote it. If I had time I'd love to write something exploring these wider themes. I especially like this idea that the final act of a loving God is to still give you a place even if you totally reject him. It's an idea that appeals to me more than the more common interpretation of hell.
