    “Is anyone going to die within the next five minutes?” I asked, my tone too light for the situation. “If it is, tell them to stop.” I could almost hear Mejt gritting her teeth in frustration. The perfect result. I had missed annoying her.

    hahaha. I like him!

    A fancy other-world lady walked up and took something off of her clothes. Just how much clothes was she wearing? Layers? Who was crazy enough to wear layers in summer? Not many could afford it, even in winter. Hah, must be nice being rich. Maybe she’s royalty… Abirami sure knew how to pick em… he must be a princess magnet or something. This struck me as kind of hilarious, especially since Mejt is basically rock-bottom of the social order XD It’s a great way to show cultural differences too!

    Ha! That’s awesome. I wasn’t sure, but figured it would be fun to play them off each other since their personality is kinda similar (on the pessimistic side)

    I like Abirami. 🙂

    ha. thanks! He fixed what he broke 😉 I like him too. I tried to pour everything you’d want in a big brother into him… which is an interesting dichotomy, since he’s my protagonist. =) Great job on the post! (and yeah, it’s a precious gem stone, but it’d still be considered a stone.)

    She bit her lip, and wondered how long it would be until her pulse told her that one more person had entered the heartbeat of eternity. [apply no theological significance to this statement. I haven’t evaluated it theologically.]

    Oh, that’s awesome. I wouldn’t worry about considering it from a theological accuracy standpoint. the Bible is rife with analogies and metaphors. I think entering the heartbeat of eternity is an amazing way of putting it. I’ve actually done some personal study on whether someone enters eternity the moment they die or if they go into a dreamless sleep until the second coming and is then resurrected into eternity, and my ultimate conclusion was – it didn’t matter. A dreamless sleep passes without time being felt, so whether the dreamless sleep lasts a day or a thousand years, it would pass without any time being felt passed. So it either way, the perception of the soul would be that after death, eternal life began instantaneously… though that is just my take on it. I certainly could be wrong. So to say the heartbeat (which the heart is not just a physical organ but a metaphor for much of what the soul is) enters eternity is awesome. Or the heartbeat of eternity. A cool twist on the idea of life after death. It would be interesting to hear more about the heartbeat of eternity. =)
