The air has become dense.

Zadok wants to escape and run away.

He does not really want to continue this journey.

How can this be heaven?

To judge has become a heavy burden.

But the angel Selaphiel has decided to help Zadok.

He asked Jonah to come.

Jonah will surely encourage Zadok to continue.

Learning from others' mistakes has always been very wise.

The soul of Jonah arrives.

It is deep blue and deep red.

Zadok is thrilled to be able to meet him.

His journey has become great.

Jonah is a legend of the Bible.

Everyone knows his story, all the choices he made.

He didn't do God's will.

He tried to run away from God.

The fish swallowed him and made him think again.

Jonah made many wrong choices.

Yet his life was not a waste.

Generations and generations have kept his story to teach.

'No one can escape God.

Your purpose is clear and set out.

You have to do what you have to do.'

Jonah's words make Zadok wonder,

'But what if I am too weak?'

The soul in front of Zadok has become prominent.

'You are never too weak.

God doesn't work like that,' Jonah says.

Once more, the presence of God has become closer.

Zadok still is not convinced.

'I know I should not run away.

In the end, I'll do what I have to.'

'You must persevere and commit.

Zadok, you are stronger than you think.

I, too, often want things to go my way.

It is easy to quit.

But to run away has no satisfaction.

You are almost done, do not lose faith now.'

Jonah has become a friend.

Someone that Zadok can trust and keep.

Jonah is still softly growing bigger like an angel.

'Please do not leave me.

If you help me, I'll be righteous.

I will then know what judgment is to be.'

The angel Selaphiel steps closer.

'We will not leave you,' he says.

'We'll be right here while you make your decision.'

With this reassurance, Zadok smiles.

'Close your eyes; you must now see.

Alanda is the last person you have to judge.'

Surprised, Zadok closes his eyes.

Alanda's life flashes before them; it's magical.

Jonah and the angel Selaphiel too close their eyes.

They see what Zadok sees.

Alanda as a child was very sweet.

Alanda loves her family and all of her friends.

But then things suddenly change.

The Naked Lady weaves into the story.

Zadok is stunned by what he witnesses; it's strange.
