Having followed the portals, [[Elshanor]] arrives in [[the Throne Room]], where fifty diverse thrones sit against three of the four stone walls. She immediately recognises the throne meant for her, a silver-set, royal-blue-velvet-padded one. As soon as she sits down, her throne becomes the head throne, and a [[man (Our Strange and Wonderful House)|man]] is sent through as a disembodied voice explains that he stole waters from the [[Fountain of Youth]] and calls on Elshanor to judge him. Two buttons, one white and one red, have appeared on the arm-rests. She looks and into his eyes chooses the red, for guilt. A portal opens beneath the man's feet and he plummets into [[Pandemonium]]. | Having followed the portals, [[Elshanor]] arrives in [[the Throne Room]], where fifty diverse thrones sit against three of the four stone walls.

Through “black fire light” he sees another throne, higher and golden, and sitting within it “[[The Devil#Facing Rohinder|the most beautiful and deadly angel anyone had ever cast eyes on]]”, who booms: “So your judgement has been placed? Well, I suppose that now it is time for your punishment.” | ||
