Plot:
Everyone has an oppinion. Everyone thinks they hold the answer. Everyone does, in part. Death is only a begining and a new life continues afterwards. Part of you is reincarnated, but that is negligable. The true world that lies beyond death is real enough. The timeless form of a land that can only be lightly touched in dreams. Reccuring dreams of flight are the premonitions of what there might be to gain. Or lose. Life after death is another life, and therefore you can lose it again. Death is merely a new beginning. Or a new end. In this land your actions count. By who and for what is up to you. The being dead is more deadly than being alive. Although you simply *pop* into this new world, the times are off. People dead in the Roman era appear as frequently as those in the American Civil War or somewhere altogether different. These people seem to be from another earth. The afterlife then contains a merging between many existances, unlocking new possibilities. The world of stories is real. Magic lives alongside science. But something seems odd as the supposed next life is examined. What happens after death this time? Is there salvation? Is there hope?

The beginning:
People popping in are begining to gain knoledge. They are starting to learn 'The Arts' and science to an amazing degree. These people might not be from the common earth. In nearby areas, men are claiming to have found true salvation in the next life and that this is purgatory. Another group to the west claims a need to sate the Gods' with sacrifice of foes. So opposition begins. So the town of Argas is trapped between two soon to clash forces. Dangerous forces.

The crickets seem quite satisfied with their niche in life. They are born, they chirp for a bit while eating, if lucky they reproduce, and die. Small and normal, but satisfying to a creature like this. No complexities to life. The cricket chirrups a bit more loudly at this 'knowledge' or lack thereof. Simple. *Cricket.*

And then, thought the cricket, it could ponder life's complexities. It could simply *chirrup* figure out why the sky was blue. It had time. It ate grass. It was not much time, but it was happy enough. *Chirrrrrrup* He thought about the idea that crickets could tell the temperature. He just chirrped more *Chirp* when it was warmer because he felt better. He was happy anyway. Something seems different today though.

The loss of the life was not noticed by the man falling from the sky. It seemed ironic that a man who just fell from the executioner's block fell upon the poor anthropod in such a way. The man just stares at the sky for a few minutes, rubbing his neck. His mind cannot grab hold of what just happened.

well, what just happened. And since im confused, i guess its all fair to make a whoever reads this confused The path to enlightenment lies behind one of two doors. In front of each door stands a guard who knows which door leads to enlightenment, but one of the guards always lies and the other one always tells the truth. In your search for enlightenment, you are allowed to ask one guard only one question that can be answered "yes" or "no", but unfortunately, you do not know which guard is the liar. You will be banished to the dungeon of logical illiteracy if you fail in your quest. What question should you ask to find the path to enlightenment?

well to figure out who is lying you could ask "do you hear me in front of you?"
