All the doctors agreed. So, they placed her in here until she was well, or for the rest of her life. Which amounted to the same thing."Angelina was ho...rified. This voice, this evil thing, had murdered three people and ruined the life of a young girl. Strangely, though, she believed every word. It sounded like the truth, and Doctor Davis had already told her a much shorter version of the story. She had to know the answer to another question."But I didn't do any of that," she insisted. "I know. He also knew that the steppers and the boy especially, were a little too astute and he was sure if they forced them to swear an oath they’d still find someway to make things difficult for them, the oath after all isn’t infallible.“We can’t try and force their hand. I’m certain that boy is aware that we may keep them here and force them to swear an oath but he seems the type to rather die than live in servitude to our clan. We should either kill them all now, or prepare to accept that we can’t. Carol and I are only children.

He firstly apologised for the death I've recently had, and introduced himself as Jeremy. I introduced myself to him as well and asked him where I am. He quite admirably explained that I was in fact dead and that nothing I did could change those facts. He then explained that I was a ghost or "spirit" (either term works) so I was neither dead or alive, and this is a dimension between both and created for people who have died, and are now making the great journey to heaven or hell.
