- Where are we going?
- To see a friend.
- You got a friend? You, John?
- Just one.
- It's here?
- Yes. The Judgment Bar.
- Weird name.
- At first it was The Irony. And to go to the end of the joke, André has written just below: "Owner: God." So, of course, at first everything went well. It was nice. Until the day God showed up
- Seriously? It is not without a degree ... of irony.
- And now, André is only the manager.
- It should not be easy to say no to God.
- Impossible I dare say. And regardless of political affiliation, believe me.
- Ha! Hey! How are you?
- Fine. And you?
- Sophie, I present you André. André, Sophie.
- What did you mean by political affiliation?
- Good, Evil. Pretty much the same. You want something?
- No thanks. We need your help.
- Of course. Thanks to you and your buddies, I'm almost a 100% informer. I could almost stop serving drinks. Oh, but no, I forgot it was free of charges!
- I know. Sorry. Look, we were in the desert yesterday.
- Juliette?
- Yes. She told us to go there. And an angel fell on us.
- How romantic!
- Shut up, André. Apparently, they have been attacked. A whole army has even been sent against some of their outposts.
- Slightly disproportionate. Did they repel the army?
- I think so. Anyway, they did send a messenger to warn us.
- So you do not know if the army did not suddenly evaporate in thin air?
- Oh, yes! This is what stronger armies tend to do. They disappear without a trace.
- Right. But I'm serious here. It happened like that in Hell. One fifth of the Accommodée was destroyed.
- What?
- The Accommodée?
- This is one of the greatest kingdoms in Hell. They torture and form all demons. Kind of an endless hazing.
- Must be nice.
- I know, right! And the army has disappeared like that? All at once?
- Yeah. We don't even know what the attackers look like. No survivors managed to agree.
- Maybe I'll be saying something stupid but what if we were next?
