I just awaken aware of mi situation, as if the question of what my punishment should be was implanted in my head beforehand, ready to be answer, but my first reaction to it was to analyse the situation, as the man of science I once was "Is reasonable to asume that anything I might choose will be twisted into a punishment equally harsh as any other possible punishment, right?

The devil, that only seemed to manifest as an abstract concept in my head replied "You will not find that answer from me", answer that did make sense, ending any uncertainty will be a form of relief, I thought.

I keep thinking "to ask to end my existence in any possible form would mean no possible pain or misery, but I can assume as a fact that that wish, as any other wish will be twisted into a terrible punishment", "If I ask, as my desire for eternity an answer to any question is logical to assume the answer itself will haunt me as much as any other punishment, as well as that I don't know if I could act in any form based on said answer"

The presence of the demon loomed on the back of my mind as an abstract thought of fear, a reminder of my doom, and my first analytical reaction started to fade away as I realize the fact that I was in hell, or that it even existed for the matter.

"I wasn't a bad person in life, why did I end here?",I thought, "that's a question for you to answer", Said the demon, "how bad could I have been? I just wanted to help everyone" "the road to hell is paved with good intentions" "Please, I couldn't have known" "you should have, in fact, you always knew" "please, what happen if I choose for you to repare what I did?" "Your wishes can't affect the mortal's world, you wanted to play god and now you have to abstain to the consequences" Then I understood, that's my punishment for play god, I have the power of a good on myself, power that if used will bring eternal pain upon me, and I always will be free to use it, a forever existing possibility to escape this eternal void into something much worse.
