#Climb 2- Storytimes about Hell// [Open to Action/Video]

[Action]

So Dante finally decided to search for some old time books from his world and find the local library. Unfortunately for him, his giant Scythe and cross weapon wasn't the greatest fit.

Dante grabbed a wooden chair and started to pull various other wooden chairs into a circle.

Dante sat in the front chair and started to recall stories from his "journey" to find Beatrice.

"Horrible things happened that day, death, lying priests and prisoners."

"I recall us going through battle that day, I promised Beatrice my pure love for her that day..."

and so the story continues...

It was Abel's first few days as the librarian at the library. He doesn't wear his typical priest clothes, as that isn't the dress code to come to work, but he does have his huge rosary of a cross dangling from neck.

So he approached the young man. "Hello there~. Shhh, not so loud. I'm curious to know why you bring your weapon with you in the library." He said, being curious (as Abel is a scythe user himself), but not admonishing him yet.

[Dante appears to be almost.. speaking to himself but his attention is diverted to the priest in front of him.]

[Dante got up off the seat and bent down on his knee, seeing a priest in his vacinity.]

"Good Priest, I cometh from a place called Hell. I'm deeply sorry for bringing Death's Scythe into here.. It is one of many tools that helped me fight the dark beast himself."

[Abel sweatdropped and laughed nervously.]

"I know, but the parents are concerned and the children are scared. I mean, I know you're not looking for a fight, but this is a civic building."

[Still with a smile.]

"Well, as long as you're not harming anyone, you're free to stay. Just leave your weapon at home next time."

[Still, he's curious and Abel took a seat to keep him company.]

"Now why you think you came from Hell?"

[Noticing the book he's reading, which is the Divine Comedy.]

"That's my favorite book by the way. Did you enjoy that?"

[Storytime! Ted listens in rapt attention, silently bidding Dante continue. The poet!]

[dantesfight]

[Dante looked to the side and sighed]

"I promise on my faith not to hurt anyone here."

[The man looked up, and frowned]

It's not like I came from the place itself, it's a place I stayed in for years at a time. Horrifying, to say the least."

[He looks over the book and nods]

"It's my life all in a book. Who knew it would bring fear all over this place and beyond?"

[02crusnikabel]

[With understanding, eyes light.]

"Oh I see, you're the Dante in the book. Well, I'm very honored to met you. I'm sorry to hear it's horrifying. Perhaps, if you would like, you can read a favorite passage from your book?"

[Dante notices Ted and the priest and nods, continuing on with the story]

"On the midpoint on the journey of life, I found myself in a forest for the clear path was lost. I cannot well recall how i entered the woods. So long has it been since I abandoned the true way.How should I say, what a dreary wood it was. So bitter that death itself but little worse.. Several times on my journey home, I sensed a unseen feeling betrayed underneath my skin. Yet when I approached, the rider vanished."

[dantesfight]

[Dante feels honored and nods at Abel]

Of course, I have one in particular.

"We were together neither in hell nor in paradise, neither damned nor saved, I did not die, and I did not live."

[02crusnikabel]

[Abel listened with rapt attention, with a soft friendly smile.]

"Do you mind tell me what it means to you?"

[dantesfight]

[Dante was quiet and then responded]

"Yes, it means that I lived somewhere between living and dying..."
