Father Gabriel continues through the Realm of Lust. There are murals on the walls, ceilings and pillars that are in motion, the souls of men and women entrapped, forever being raped by demons. \n\nThe sound of weeping echoes through these chambers, but one sounds different from the others, not tortured by lamenting.\n\nFather Gabriel sees the poor soul on knees and covering her face, crying into her hands. \n\nShe sees him. \n\n"Oh, father... I have sinned. At a young age, I was addicted to sex. My father implanted such a sin in me with his wicked nature. I bore a child from it. I loved my child but I only knew my addiction.

"You want my life?" Father Gabriel summons forth his sword. "Come and take it."\n\nThe two exchange powerful blows. Hammer and sword scratch against one another, screaming and reverberating throughout the air.\n\nThe father is agile, leaping and dodging around Mammon's attacks with ease. After evading Mammon's hammer, the father swings his sword across Mammon's back, causing a deep laceration.\n\n"Ah!" Mammon shouts. \n\n"Shall we prolong this or will you accept thine defeat?"\n\n"You pitiful twit!" Mammon rips the cross from his neck. He points it in Gabriel's direction and it shoots a projectile in the shape of a cross that knocks Gabriel on his back. \n\nFather Gabriel struggles against paralysis. He feels the footsteps of Mammon vibrating the ground under his back. \n\nMammon stands over Father Gabriel. "Ah, the sweet, seductive taste of revenge. 'Tis there no better sensation?"\n\nHe lifts his hammer of his head. "I shall hunt you 'til the end of time in whatever realm you are doomed to."\n\nMammon's expression immediately shifts from elation to shock. Father Gabriel notices that Mammon's body starts to crack with a blue light. The zigzaging lines cover his entire body. He screams just before exploding into pieces.

The father steadies his resolve and refuses the Siren of his notice.\n\n"Look at me!" she bellows.\n\n"You have no power if your seductions are ignored."\n\n"I will not be ignored!" She grabs him by the head. The father shuts his eyes. "Does thou not know who I am? On Earth, I was the infamous Jezebel! I was irresistable.

"Many names I hold. I am the deity of prophecy, the Oracle of Fate."\n\nHis eyes widen with an expression that lies somewhere between awared and terrified. Humbly, he replies, "Well, then you must know that my Fate has been tampered with. I do not belong here."\n\n"No, you do not. However, I cannot turn a blind eye to what terrible consequences you have begot upon the cosmos. There is an Order, a way in which all life is governed and in your inadvertent extinguishing of the Arbiter, several unjudged wayward souls have escaped into the Beyond, keenly drawn and tempted by whatever specific Realm of Hell defined their eartly misdeeds. You must go forth and judge them."\n\n"What?" \n\n"Absolve those of whom you would deem worthy and damn the blatant wrong doers."\n\n"I need to leave this place!" \n\n"You cannot. Not yet.

He peers at the path before him. \n\n[[Enter the Realm of Pride]] \n\n\n
The elevator door opens up and the beholds emptiness. There is nothing but a room and a throne and adjacent to the throne, an object covered by a sheet. \n\nCurious, the father approaches the sheet covered object, removing it and revealing an elegant mirror. He sees his reflection. \n\n"What is this?"\n\n"Tis the last wayward soul, Father."\n\nFather Gabriel spins around to find a man with white wings where the tips grow black. His hair is blond, his eyes are blue, his flesh is pale and there is nothing but anger in his eyes.\n\nThe very evil of the being makes Father Gabriel's blood tremor. "You...your..."\n\n"I am he whom stories tell of a great betrayal. I, father, no anger more than anyone else. And you in dripping of it, soaked in its unwashable fragrance. I am Lucifer."\n\n"How can this be?"\n\n"The Oracle lied to you. You are the seventh wayward soul. You have quite the Fate depending how lenient or how ruthless you were in your judgments. Go father, face the mirror. Face your final judgment."\n\nThe father turns around.

Suddenly, slow, methodical, thunderous footsteps echo through the chamber. The molten splashes up, barely missing the father's feet. When he turns around, he spots a Daemon. It has the torso of a man and the legs of a goat. In its hand he carries a mighty gold hammer. Gitl garments adorn its beastly form. He wears a bejeweled gold cross around its neck and hoardes jewelry cover his wrists, fingers and ankles.\n\nIt gives chase.

Sacred markings are carved into the metallic armor. Large and majestic white feathered wings extend from his back, levitating him. In hand, he is equip with a hammer that spits lightning from its head.\n\n"I apologize for the fate that thou hath endured. Allow me to release you of this torment. Let me show you true mercy."\n\nGabriel flies upward. He extends his hammer over his head. A mighty bolt strikes the head of the hammer, enveloping all of Gabriel in blue lightning.

In a desolate space where old moans and terrors subside, new ones arise and the cavern of lust and sex extends into a place where gems and diamonds are embedded in gilt walls. Gales of hot winds blow fiercely through this region causing the father to profusely sweat. \n\nStreams of molten gold course throughout the region of Greed, creating a realm of steam and dense air. Earth's greediest sinners are encased in gold, posed holding gold hammers of their heads, forever frozen in that which possessed them to do such atrocious things.\n\nAs the father walks along the path, he spots a tower. "Perhpas that's where I'm going," he says aloud. On either sides of him, spirits splash about, screaming as the molten gold melts away their flesh.

The imps drop the father on the ground. He rolls before slamming into something. When he lifts his head, he sees a banquet table, set upon the backs of starving children, overflowing with food. T\n\n"Ah, ha, Father Adam Gabriel. Please *snort* join me!"\n\nThe father stands, his curious attention on the Daemon at the other end of the table. It is repugnant, covered in bumps and boils with the flap of its belly resting on the edge of the table. The father can hear its stomach gurgle and turn. \n\nHe hears a growl from the corner of the room. A massive cerberus lays elegantly on its belly, a bowl of severed arms resting in the bowl before it. Its eyes are trained carefully on the father. \n\n"I've heard you've been going through the Realms of Hell absolving and damning souls. Interesting. Tell me, what say you I?"\n\n"What have you done these children?"\n\n"I've done nothing but given their sniveling lives purpose.

Father Gabriel approaches the light. Attracted by its radiating beauty and goodness he stretches out his hand to touch it.\n\nA mighty wind is unleashed from the light, one that launches Father Gabriel away and on his back. \n\nOnce he recovers, a beautiful golden woman stands before him. Her hair and eyes are gold and her garments are white and flowing.\n\n"What have you done?!" she cries out. \n\nHorrific screams suddenly erupt about. The Soul Conduit is no longer blocked now that the Arbiter has fallen. \n\nSeveral spirits fly out from the opening. With the wave of her hands, the entity seals off the passage. \n\nShe turns back to Father Gabriel.\n\n"Behold the recklessness of your grievence. Souls have escpaed into the Beyond unjudged." \n\n[[Who are you?][$morality += 0]]\n[[Wow...][$morality -= 5]]\n
Father Gabriel groans awake, his hellish surroundings inverted and swaying. There is a pulse in the corner of his mind.\n\nSexual moans and the wailing of so many echo all throughout the region. The stones and rocks are of a purple and pinkish hue. \n\n"Ah, he wakes," says a voice seductively. \n\nFather Gabriel feels a caressing hand on his back. \n\n"Who are you? Show yourself! Where am I?"\n\n"Oh, father, do you not like the sounds of those sickened by lust. Listen to them...their sweet, sweet pain echoes over like a beautiful lullaby as daemons have their way them for the rest of eternity. Oh, makes me moist..." \n\nIt moves around to his shoulder, brushing its hand across his cheek before coming into focus. She's naked. Her breasts are bare to the father as well as her genitalia. Her eyes are green and aglow, her hair long and red and draping handsomely over her body.\n\nFather Gabriel is bashful and abash. His cheeks flush red and he turns his head away. \n\n"Oh, father, don't be so demure, behold my form. Enchant thine self with passion and welcome my lusssst."\n\n[[Don't Look][$morality += 10]]\n[[Look][$morality -= 10]]\n\n<<loopsound "Male Moan 1.mp3">>\n<<loopsound "Male Moan 2.mp3">>\n<<loopsound "Female Moan.mp3">>\n<<fadeoutsound "Spooks.mp3">>\n<<loopsound "Man Crying 2.mp3">>\n<<fadeoutsound "Moans of the Envy 2.mp3">>\n<<playsound "Woman Crying.mp3">>
With his head down in contemplation, Father Gabriel retorts, "You blasphemous creature." He beholds the colossal deity with rage-fervent eyes. "I, Father Adam Lylidus Gabriel, am regent of the Court of Christmen! I have banished daemons far nefarious than you. The pentinence of my sins is true and have been heard and forgiven by the All-Father. You, foul creature, are wicked and a liar and have no power to judge me!"\n\n"Bahahahaha! What humor! You are a mockery to the High Lord. You shall pay dearly for your insulence and sins!"\n\nThe Arbiter lifts his gavel. "I sentence you, Father Adam Gabriel, to the Fourth Realm of Hell. Let the Sirens of Lust have their way with you for all enternity!"\n\n[[Take out the Imp to the left]]\n[[Take out the Imp to the right]]\n\n<<loopsound "Hell2.mp3">>\n\n\n
Father Gabriel secures the soul by the throat with his left hand. "You wretched soul, how dare you beg for forgiveness and yet yours knows no girth. Let your beauty now be the anchor of your damnation!"\n\nThe soul screams and wails as it bursts into flames. The flaming spirit flies and crashes into one of the mirrors, breaking it. Slowly, it pulls the spirit in, cracking, the soul's ghastly wails echoing throughout the Realm of Pride. Finally, the soul is secured in his torment, damned eternally in his vanity.\n\nFather Gabriel notices a shining item on the ground. It's a coin, so gold and resplendent that it's difficult to look at. \n\nFather Gabriel approaches the coin, his hand shielding away some of the light. He picks it up and it's glow abates.\n\n"Hmmm...I might need this." Gabriel places the coin in his pocket and proceeds forward.\n\n[[Proceed to the Realm of Sloth]] \n<<set $item = "Alexander's Treasure">>\s\n\n
The father pulls down the Sword Lever but the door doesn't move. The ground beneath him falls away and he plummets into the molten gold. Father Gabriel screams in agony as his flesh melts away, as his red blood mixes into the gold, as the spirits scrape at him and pull him under.\n\nYOU'RE DEAD!\n\n-HELL OVERTAKES THE EARTH AND HEAVEN. LUCIFER RISES TO POWER AND DARKNESS BECOMES EVERYTHING.\n\n[[Try Again|Proceed to the Realm of Greed]]\n
The father balances her confession in his head. "I, too, have known lust and adultery in mine life. Doth thou repent here and now thine sins to our Lord."\n\n"I do." The soul looks heavenward. "I am a sinner, Lord. I've sinned with my body, tainted my temple, and my pentinence is heavy. Forgive me."\n\n"You are forgiven, my child. I hear his voice...and He says you are forgiven. The Kingdom awaits you."\n\nHe places his right hand on her forehead, closes his eyes and a bright light envelops them both.\n\nAfter moments of rushing air and the beautiful embrace of goodness, he opens his eyes. The soul is gone but in her place is a sword imbedded in the purple-stoned ground.\n\n"My gift to you, father. The Sword of Champions. May it serve thee well in thine journey. Blessed be."\n\n"Blessed be."\n\nGabriel walks over to the sword, lifts it from the ground and weighs it in his hand. He swings a few practice blows against the air. He smiles, pleased. \n\n[[Continue|Proceed to the Realm of Greed - Oracle's Intervention]]\n\n<<set $item = "Sword of Champions">>\n\n\n\n
The father pulls down the Hammer Lever and the door lifts. The father jumps through just before the ground beneath him sank into the molten lava.\n\nWhen he looks around, he is on a circular platform that drifts over an endless lake of gold lava. \n\nHe stands and drifts along.\n\nAfter several minutes, Father Gabriel is startled by a loud gushing noise. When he turns around, a geyser of hot, liquified gold shots into the air. Once the lava has fallen back down below, the Daemon bedecked in gold and equipped with his hammer is revealed. He falls down onto the platform where the father is. The Daemon stands erect and beholds the father with a sinister gaze. \n\n"Greetings, father."\n\n"Who are you, Daemon? Speak thine name in my presence."\n\n"Doth my deformity thusly betray my idenity? Am I so beyond recognition?"\n\n"Cease these riddles! Who are you?" \n\n"'Tis I, father, the friend who came to thee back on Earth for thine help! Thine trecherous betrayal to me begot Lucifer's mercy upon me. He bestowed upon me the power and status of Archdaemon here below. I am the Daemon of Riches. Mammon!"\n\nThe father's eyes widen. "Mammon? 'Tis it really thee?"\n\n"It is, father. And I've awaited impatiently for the day that I'd crush you with my vengeance. And now, so beautifully, that day has come."\n\nMammon lunges at Father Gabriel with his hammer, slamming it down and swaying the whole platform.\n\nThe two dance around each other attacks. Father Gabriel uses the capacity of his Faith to take out Mammon but his powers alone aren't enough. \n \n<<if $skill is "Oblidion's Trigger">>\s\n[[Use Skill Oblidion's Trigger|Battle Mammon w/Oblidion's Trigger- Oracle Intervention]]\n<<endif>>\n<<if $skill is "Archangel Trigger">>\s\n[[Use Archangel Trigger|Battle Mammon w/ Archangel Trigger- Oracle Intervention]]]\n<<endif>>\n<<if $item is "Sword of Champions">>\s\n[[Sword of Champions|Battle Mammon w/ Sword of Champion - Oracle Intervention]]\n<<endif>>\n\n<<fadeoutsound "Coins1.mp3">>\n<<fadeoutsound "Coins 4.mp3">>\n

He sways and stumbles among the quakes.\n\nHe stops, looks solidly at Father Gabriel.\n\n"Feast!"\n\nThe Cerberus stands crouches its heads low and lifts it upper lips into snarls so that the sharp teeth show. It bolts forward, shaking the ground with every step.

The Father pulls out Mammon's Cross and faces it at the Cerberus. It halts, whimpering, pacing back and forth, snarling at the artifact in Gabriel's hand. "Cursed hound! Return to the belly of Hell where you belong!"\n\nBut before the father can attack, some long wraps around his wrist. He looks and the gluttonous Daemon leans out of its seat, its head reaching and its tongue stretching across the room, being that slippering thing that binds him. \n\nThe Daemon yanks its head and the father goes flying across the room. He slams incredibly hard into the wall that it shatters.\n\nAs the father lifts himself from the blow, the Cerberus comes charging his way. From all three mouths it regurgitates green goo. Father Gabriel dodges out of the way, listening to the acid sizzle into the ground. \n\nHe points the cross at the Gluttonous Daemon, unleashing an incredible gold and white cross project from it. As it strikes the Daemon, blowing him over his chair and on to the floor, the father somersaults over the Cerberus that lunged for him. \n\nLithely, he mounts the beast and shoves the sharp end of the cross down into the center head and the two are enveloped in incadescent white light.\n\nOnce the light subsides, the Cerberus is gone, only Father Gabriel stands, his enraged expression aimed at the Daemon.\n\n"Gah!" it shouts, standing it lifting the table of food off of the children's backs.

Equipping himself with the Sword of Champions, Gabriel lashes at the Cerberus. Gabriel's will with the sword is majestic, catching and countering the attempted bites he thwarted. At times he'd strike the beast with his sword but its hide was like metal, making his blows ineffective.\n\nGabriel pushes himself out of reach of the dog's mouths. The snout belonging to the head in the middle starts crackling with fire. The father's hands and eye start to glow white. The light then extends up to the blade and engulfs it in a white fire.\n\nThe Cerberus releases a mighty ball of molten flames at an astounding speed. With the slash against the air, Father Gabriel cuts through the ball of fire. He charges after the creature and removes it of its left head.\n\nIt whimpers from the pain of decapitation but it is still ruthless as it snaps at Gabriel with its last set of heads. \n\nWith a graceful maneuver, he removes the head on the right before lithely turning to slice off the middle head. \n\nAfter the beast falls, Gabriel turns upon the gluttonous Daemon.\n\n"Gah!" it shouts, standing it lifting the table of food off of the children's backs.

The imps drop the father on the ground. He rolls before slamming into something.

It is repugnant, covered in bumps and boils with the flap of its belly resting on the edge of the table. \n\nHe hears a growl from the corner of the room. A massive cerberus lays elegantly on its belly, a bowl of severed arms resting in the bowl before it. Its eyes are trained carefully on the father. \n\n"I've heard you've been going through the Realms of Hell absolving and damning souls. Interesting. Tell me, what say you I?"\n\n"What have you done these children?"\n\n"I've done nothing but given their sniveling lives purpose. Thieving, father, though stemmed by starvation is still a sin against His commandments." The Daemon chuckles. "How merciless, no?\n\n"I was king of Erindore.

Gabriel flanks the Daemon while it's stunned. \n\n"I will kill you, father."\n\nThe father jumps high into the air and lands on the shoulders of the Daemon.

"You are lost, like so many other here, broken by a world that gave you up long before you were born. You idolized your gluttony on the backs of the poor. It comforts you. But their is hope for you yet. I care not of your misdeeds, repentance is yours if you want it."\n\nThe Daemon let's out a horrendous laugh that shakes the ground beneath the father. He sways and stumbles among the quakes.\n\nHe stops, looks solidly at Father Gabriel.\n\n"Feast!"\n\nThe Cerberus stands crouches its heads low and lifts it upper lips into snarls so that the sharp teeth show. It bolts forward, shaking the ground with every step. It lunges at the father but he successfully gets out of the way. \n\nHowever, as quickly as he dodges the three-headed dog, it recovers quicker than Gabriel and head butts him with the middle head. Father Gabriel sores across the room and lands hard on his back. \n\nStraining to get up, he looks at the beast charging him. \n\n[[Use Mammon's Cross|Battle Gluttonous Daemon w/ Mammon's Cross][$pchoice = "Mammon's Cross"]]\n<<if $skill is "Oblidion's Trigger">>\s\n[[Use Skill Oblidion's Trigger|Battle Gluttonous Daemon w/Oblidion's Trigger]]\n<<endif>>\n<<if $skill is "Archangel Trigger">>\s\n[[Use Archangel Trigger|Battle Gluttonous Daemon w/ Archangel Trigger]]\n<<endif>>\n<<if $item is "Sword of Champions">>\s\n[[Use Sword of Champions|Battle Gluttonous Daemon w/ Sword of Champion][$pchoice = "Sword of Champions"]]\n<<endif>>
As the Daemon's footsteps quake the floor beneath him, moving the molten lakes to and from, the suffering souls of greed are spat from the fiery liquid and thrown onto the path. \n\nFather Gabriel is surrounded. He swings his mighty sword back and forth, slashing down the souls that pursue him. \n\nHowever, it is too many. The mighty Daemon takes the father in grasps and lifts him, squeezing him.\n\n"Die!"\n\nThe Daemon throws the father into the molten gold. Father Gabriel screams in agony as his flesh melts away, as his red blood mixes into the gold, as the spirits scrape at him and pull him under.\n\nYOU'RE DEAD!\n\n-HELL OVERTAKES THE EARTH AND HEAVEN.

The Father pulls out Mammon's Cross and faces it at the Cerberus. It halts, whimpering, pacing back and forth, snarling at the artifact in Gabriel's hand. "Cursed hound! Return to the belly of Hell where you belong!"\n\nBut before the father can attack, some long wraps around his wrist. He looks and the gluttonous Daemon leans out of its seat, its head reaching and its tongue stretching across the room, being that slippering thing that binds him. \n\nThe Daemon yanks its head and the father goes flying across the room. He slams incredibly hard into the wall that it shatters.\n\nAs the father lifts himself from the blow, the Cerberus comes charging his way. From all three mouths it regurgitates green goo. Father Gabriel dodges out of the way, listening to the acid sizzle into the ground. \n\nHe points the cross at the Gluttonous Daemon, unleashing an incredible gold and white cross project from it. As it strikes the Daemon, blowing him over his chair and on to the floor, the father somersaults over the Cerberus that lunged for him. \n\nLithely, he mounts the beast and shoves the sharp end of the cross down into the center head and the two are enveloped in incadescent white light.\n\nOnce the light subsides, the Cerberus is gone, only Father Gabriel stands, his enraged expression aimed at the Daemon.\n\n"Gah!" it shouts, standing it lifting the table of food off of the children's backs. "I will crush you!"\n\n[[Continue|Battle the Gluttony - Oracle's Intervention]]\n

"It is the idolization of gluttony on the backs of the poor that got you here. Do not try and beautify your transgressions."\n\nThe father grows irritated. "I don't have time for this futile encounter. I've indeed seen the power of gluttony destroy lives and families, destroy the strength of the spirit. I found myself long ago cornered by such a comforting sin...when my dear beloved Amelia died. I can see how one of weak resolve would succumb to the gravity. Butthe strong always rises. And you, Daemon, are as weak as they come. The sooner I get rid of you souls, the sooner I wake up from this nightmare."\n\nFather Gabriel activates the skill Obvlious Trigger and his form is transformed into a being of whose aura of red and black matches that of his armor. Sacred markings are carved into the metallic armor. Large and majestic black feathered wings extend from his back, levitating him. In hand, he is equip with a powerful scythe.\n\n"Now, behold what true power looks like. You and your kind, Daemon, are beneath the righteousness of the Christment and it by their will to Him that will aid in your defeat!"\n\nThe gluttonous Daemon charges for Gabriel in slow, heavy steps. \n\nFather Gabriel flies after the Daemon and punches it in the stomach. It's belly sucks in his attack. Father Gabriel's eyes widen with surprise. Suddenly, little by little, Father Gabriel is pulled into the Daemon.\n\n"Ahaha, puny jerk."\n\nAs it slowly turns around, its expression falls with concern. It grunts and holds its stomach. "What the-?"\n\nThe surface of its flesh begins to boil and melt away. "No. No. NO!"\n\nThe Daemon explodes into chunky pieces that splat all around the room. The radius of the explosion consumes the children, causing them to burst into to flames, damning them into eternity inadvertently. Their screams echo before becoming silence. \n\nAs the trigger fades and the father realizes what he'd done, he falls to his knees, eventually breaking into sob.\n\nA door far across the room opens. The father looks up. He gathers his bearings, gets up and proceeds toward it, enters an elevator and rises to the top of the tower, to the final realm... Wrath...\n\nAs the trigger wanes and runes disappear off of his body, he takes a hard breath, gets up and proceeds toward it. He enters an elevator. The doors close and he rises to the top of the tower, to the final realm... Wrath...\n\n[[Proceed to the Realm of Wrath|Wrath - Oracle's Intervention][$morality -= 25]]\n

Mirrors crowd the landscape. Some empty and others appearing to hold screaming souls, banging against the glass from the other side, begging and bemoaning for release. \n\nFather Gabriel navigates through the Realm. Arms stretch out from mirrors all around him, reaching and beseeching help, pleading for the father to absolve them. \n\nSuddenly, he comes across a soul weeping on the ground, outside the confinement of a mirror prison. \n\nFather Gabriel approaches the soul. \n\n"My child, tell me, what is wrong?"\n\nThe soul looks up to Father Gabriel. He starts weeping harder. “I did not mean to be so vain. I had a career to think about. I was a model. I showed the world my body and my beauty and they praised me for it. They paid me for it. Deliberately, I disparaged those of ugliness, strayed clear of befriending anyone who was not beautiful. I mocked them, I preyed on their despondency and elevated my prestige doing so. I am truly apologetic. Am I beyond absolution?”\n\n[[Absolve|First Wayward Soul - Absolution][$morality += 5]]\n[[Damn|First Wayward Soul - Damnation][$morality = 0]]\n\n<<loopsound "Cavern.mp3">>\n<<fadeoutsound "Hell2.mp3">>\n<<fadeoutsound "Hell2 copy.mp3">>\n<<fadeoutsound "Spooks copy.mp3">>\n<<fadeoutsound "Spooks.mp3">>
