– Oh, of course, I’ll show it to you! It’s on the ground "floor" and there are SUCH
things!!! – Stella’s shoulders flinched, obviously remembering something extremely
unpleasant.

We continued to walk and I noticed that the surroundings began to change
gradually. The transparency disappeared little by little, yielding to the "denser"
scenery which more looked like the earthly one.
– What’s happening? Where are we? – I pricked up my ears.

– We’re still in the same place. – Stella calmly answered. – Only in its "simpler"
part. Remember, we’ve just discussed it? Mostly those who just came are here. When
they see the scenery which looks like the one they got accustomed to, it’s easier for
them to assimilate the "transition" into a new world... Also those who do not want to
be better than they are and make the least effort to achieve something greater, live
here.
– So, it means that this "floor" consist of two parts? – I specified.
– Yes, you can say that. – Stella answered thoughtfully and unexpectedly changed
the subject.
– It’s strange – nobody pays any attention to us. Do you think they are not here?

We looked around and stopped, having no idea what to do.
– Shall we venture "downstairs"? – Stella asked.

I felt that the little girl had become tired. To tell the truth I too was very far from
being on my best form, but I was almost sure that she was not going to surrender and
therefore I nodded in reply.
– Well, then we have to prepare ourselves a bit... – Stella declared, "war-like",
and concentrated, biting her lip. – Do you know how to create your powerful
protective shield?
– I think I do, but I am not sure whether it will be sufficiently strong. – I
answered confusedly. I did not want to let her down exactly now.

– Show me. – The girl asked.
I understood that it was not a whim and she simply wanted to help me. I
concentrated and made my green "cocoon" which I always created when I needed to
be seriously protected.

– Wow! – Stella’s eyes widely opened with surprise. – Well, let’s go then.
This time our flight downward was not so pleasant unlike the previous one... For
some reason I felt that something strongly squeezed my chest and I could not breathe
freely. But gradually everything returned to normal and I could observe the
surroundings. The sinister scenery unpleasantly surprised me.
A heavy, blood-red sun stingily lit up the dim, violet-brown silhouettes of distant
mountains... Deep cracks crept along the surface like giant snakes; a dense, dark-
orange fog came out of them and, on merging with the surface, came to look like a
bloody shroud. Strange human spirits, which were very dense, almost physically
dense, wondered aimlessly everywhere... They appeared and then disappeared, paying
no attention to each other, noticing nobody except for themselves, as if they lived
exclusively in their private world, tightly closed to anybody else. In the distance we
