Scars or burnt-outs, bruises or aches can not stop her. The fragile female twirls and sways in spite of weighty shackles causing pain. On one foot she spins in a circle smiling wickedly and starts to poke holes in the air towards different cardinal points:
north, west, east, south,
south, east, west, north
To be this jovial as a prisoner is remarkable. Is her sanity fading as others believe? She has a sacred mirror it is her only possession and maybe by worshipping it daily she keeps a mental balance. She gazes into the human world by using the mirror. Every time an event, a person, or a plot alters the way she predicts she dances as if it was a reward. But her peace doesn't last long, on occasion she has visitors. A guard who would hastily toss her scraps and leave or, some cheeky onlookers would go there to throw scraps and, add atrocious remarks:
"Look at you, once a high God!"
"Now a nothing!"
"Why does such a disgrace like yourself even exist?"
"If you come closer I'll spit on you"
But did she do anything wrong? Rules in the Heavenly Kingdom were even more irrational and illogical than human lawsuits. It is far easier to be a low God who serves no purpose than to be in a position everyone kills for. Even so,she made sure to revolt before they could kill her completely. However, when a God in the Heavenly Kingdom rebels frequently they are sentenced to a human trial.
As such, the day arrives for her to be banished as a 'human'. As she gradually moves towards the edge of heaven she keeps her head high and shoulders stiff. When she reaches the gatekeeper he points to the cloudy mass before them. Seeing that her disposition didn't change he asks a question as rhetorically as he can muster.
"What do you really wish to accomplish in that world?"
She smirks and says "to live once and for all; to die and be done with it all" then she jumps into the clouds and sink into the new world; bawling as she greets her new parent.
