The angel Selaphiel touches Zadok.
Slowly Zadok comes out of his trance.
He is back in the abyss field; he hovers.
'Heaven is coming to you.
You have seen enough of Julius Sabitov.
But there is someone else you have to meet.'
Zadok follows the angel Selaphiel.
Another soul is also coming towards them.
She looks familiar, but Zadok cannot seem to recollect.
The soul is very beautiful.
'This is Karina,' the angel Selaphiel says.
Zadok is filled with joy and greets her lovingly.
'I have witnessed your death.
But tell me, who is your murderer?
And have you made peace with dying so young?'
Karina is soft and gentle.
Zadok knows she will speak the truth.
'You will soon enough find out who killed me.'
Hearing these words disappoints Zadok.
'Rather focus now on my husband, Julius.
As for dying, I wish I could live more.
From here, life seems brief.
But every year, a thousand times over.
Be gracious to my family; please don't judge harshly.'
Swiftly Karina Sabitov drifts away.
Zadok can see Karina has loved much.
She will find peace in eternity, for she's precious.
It's time to move on.
In heaven, everything is different and new.
Zadok cannot get used to breathing without a body.
Zadok must now judge Julius.
The angel Selaphiel gives Zadok a book.
'As you speak, the words will appear in it.'
The book is named: Julius.
Zadok pages through it seeing Julius' life.
Again he sees Julius in a very different light.
The good and the bad.
But Zadok cannot help to feel hate.
This man has pride in evil ways and abuse.
There's little love in him.
And yet he believes in Jesus Christ.
The Lamb that washes away all sin and wrong.
It does not make sense.
'What is your judgment?' the angel asks.
'I cannot judge a man just as I am.'
'You must!' the angel proclaims.
'I find him guilty of no mercy.
He has no mercy left for himself or others.'
Zadok imagines Julius's soul weeping.
But it is the truth; it is.
'He is a liar; he is a stubborn fool.'
It does not feel real.
Zadok wants to take off his crown.
But Zadok has to judge the other two people.
