"well...if you take the deal, you will sign a contract. your soul will be cleansed, and then at precisely the same time your body will be reanimated and your soul will be bound." Martin explained. "its precise because your body and soul cant both exist freely at the same time. thats why when your soul is free,like it is now, your body is well...unused. and when your alive your soul is bound to your body." He paused, "your soul will be kept bound to an orb while your using your body,and your body will be preserved so you wont lose it. youll have to clean it thuroughly though, probably anytime you leave hell...contrary to popular belief, hell is extremely clean and pure."

Sam nodded in agreement, from what he saw anyway. 35 or so years ago. He sighed and continued to look out the window. He was just thinking, the cancer...everything came up so fast....and then it was over

The gate opens slowly, because Cerberus had to first wake up to open it. The giant three-headed guard-dog pushes it open lazily,then stands next to it.
Martin hit the gas again, actually somewhat relieved to be back in hell. It was his home now, afterall, and had been since the early 1900's. it would be their home now too.

"well, it depends on who you are and if you have a contract. and where you are...there are 9 levels, its not just a myth. the lower the level, the worse it is, and the more wicked the souls. plus if you dont have a contract your pretty much sentenced to whatever menial slave labor needs doing at the time. its not a stable afterlife that way..." Martin said, "on the upper levels though, its fairly habitable. almost like earth except everyone is either dead or fallen, and the sky is red.."

"most people dont have the will to try. and the people who do, dont want to. honestly, the only attempts are training camps." Martin replied, "be patient, the Duke's estate is some ways in..."

Sam nodded "what do they do if they catch someone trying to escape?" He asked. This question was important to him. He needed, no matter what, to make sure he wasnt caught.

"why, are you considering it? why sign the contract if your just going to run away..." Martin said, finally stopping outside the Duke's house. "it seems silly,dont you think."

"well what if I just wanted to know?" he asked. Couldn't a kid ask a question around here. He sighed "Have I lost my right to ask questions?" He asked. He was going to learn the rules of the game. He had too.

"if they catch you, they tretrain you. if your too much of a problem, they reassign you, usually to a lower level..." Martin said. "now come on, hes waiting." He sighed, getting out of the car once more.

getting out of the car and then asking as he shuts the door "how long does these things usually take? not in a hurry but just curious. do we get a chance to explore at all or any freedom to roam around some?"

"not until after your trained. then, if you wish, you can explore in your downtime when you havent been given a mission. aslong as you return when called." Martin said, walking up the door. "if you dont come when they want you, theill send someone to hunt you down. i advise against making them resort to that...the people they send arent gentle."

"what do you mean by after im trained?" he asked curiously "even if we are willing to work or do stuff we still have to be trained?"

"do you do any job in life without being trained to do it? do you really think hell is going to toss you out there without showing you the ropes first..." Martin smirked. "besides, you have to be cleansed, that requires a brief moment of pain."
