It wasn't long before Stampy and the spirits of New Growler would be approaching the first trial. "So how many tests are there, Sparklez?" Stampy asked.
"Well from what I did there's seven tests all together, but each one is based off of a sin. Sloth, Gluttony, Greed, Envy, Wrath, Pride, and Lust." Sparklez explained.
"You mean the seven deadly sins? That's not the right order isn't it?" Magnus asked, deciding to bud in on the conversation.
"Does it matter?" Anthony questioned.
"No not really. Each test slowly gets harder and harder, very few pass. But don't worry! At least you have someone who's done these tests before!" Sparklez boasted, at least pride wasn't the first test.
They walked up the trail that wrapped around the mountain. They seemed to be the only people going up, because so many souls were retreating. But then Stampy noticed the green sun that illuminated the whole inferno. "What's with the sun?"
"Oh that? Yeah the sun is made of hellfire. We thought it's red but nope, it's green." Harper explained.
"And a bit of advice Stampy," Sparklez warned, "remember how I said a week here is a year back in the living world? Well one full day is two months. Except on Sunday, then it's one month."
"What! What day is it?" Stampy asked.
"Not Sunday." Romeo said bluntly.
"Well we gotta go fast! Run, run, run!" Anthony shouted.
And it wasn't long before they ran to the first gate. It was like the one in Growler Town, old to put it slightly. And it had a sign that said Trial 1: Sloth
But before they entered the trial they were greeted by the angel Bruce. Though he didn't look like an angel, he looked like a poor peasant. Dirty clothes, messy hair and beard, but the man looked awfully tired. He let out a loud yawn and stretched, no angel wings or halo. Was he in exile?
"You," he said pointing a weak finger at Stampy, "you're still alive yes?"
Stampy nodded and the angel continued. "Do you wish to go through the trials? Trials that will show you who you really are as a person?"
Stampy nodded again to which the angel spoke more. "And you understand that if you fail even one trial your mortal body will die?"
"Yes Mr. Angel, I understand the risks." Stampy agreed.
"Then let your journey begin. May Notch and Jeb be on your side. Now hold still, this won't hurt." The angel pulled out a pocket knife and flipped the blade out. The others jumped back a little bit, but Stampy remained calm... although he was panicking in his mind.
The angel brought the small blade to Stampys forehead and carved seven 'S's into him. Surprisingly it didn't hurt and once the angel was done he nodded to the group and moved out of the way for them to enter.
As the group entered they suddenly felt tired. And saw cozy chairs, couches, and beds. They saw werewolves, wizards/witches, and even dragons peacefully sleeping.
But Sparklez snapped them out of it. "Don't give in! If you fall asleep, you'll stay asleep forever!"
Thanks to Sparklez they all passed the trial, and once they got out of the trial they ran to the next one. Unlike the last entrance this one was a gate, with a sign that said Trial 2: Gluttony
This time the angel was a woman. Angel Sherry. She was... round... to say the least. At least she had Angel wings, but they were small.
"Oh," she said, "I heard about you. The unconscious man right? Ugh, sorry about Bruce. Since he never got his wings he's been cranky. Here let me help you child."
