Svetlana de Rohan-Levashova.   Revelation

                  A  surprisingly  beautiful  spirit  came  out  of  her  disfigured  physical  body.  She
            looked the way Damiana had been before she found herself in this damned place.

                  – Thank you... – Her soft voice rustled. – Thank you for your goodness... and for
            freedom. I shall always remember you.
                  She began to rise easily along the luminous channel.

                  – Farewell Damiana... Let your new life be happy and light! You’ll find happiness,
            girl... and good people. Farewell...
                  Her heart gently stopped... And her soul, worn out with suffering, freely flew away
            where nobody could cause her pain. The sweet kind girl went away without knowing
            how wonderful and joyful her broken unlived life could be... how many good people
            she could make happy with her Gift... how high and light her love, which she did not
            have chance to know, could be... and how happily the voices of her unborn in this life
            children could sound...
                  Damiana’s  face  became  peaceful  and  smoothed  out  after  death.  She  seemed
            asleep, so pure and beautiful she was now... Bitterly sobbing, I sat onto a rough seat
            next to her empty body... My heart froze, filled with bitterness and resentment for her
            innocent broken life... A fierce hatred rose somewhere very deep in it, threatening to
            break forth outside and wipe this criminal terrible world from the face of earth.

                  Finally I managed to pull myself together, glanced once again at the brave girl-
            child, mentally wishing her peace and happiness in her new world, and quietly left the
            terrible room...
                  The  horror  I’d  seen  paralysed  my  mind,  discouraging  me  from  further
            investigation  of  the  Papal  basement... threatening  to bring  down  on  me  somebody
            else’s suffering which could be even more frightful. I was going to go upstairs, as
            suddenly I felt a weak, but very persistent call. Surprised, I strained my ears to hear it
            and finally understood that the call proceeded from here, from the very basement. On
            forgetting all my former fears, I decided to check.

                  The call repeated until I came right to the door behind which it sounded...
                  The cell was empty, damp and dark. A man sat on the straw in the corner. I came
                  closer and cried out. It was my old acquaintance, cardinal Morone... This time his
                  proud face was red with scratches and it was obvious that he suffered terribly.
                  – Oh, I am very glad that you are alive! Hello, Monsignor! Did you

                  call  me?  He  raised  himself  a  little,  wincing  in  pain,  and  very
                  seriously pronounced:

                  – Yes, Madonna. I’ve been calling you for a long time, but for some reason you
            did not hear, although you were very near.
                  – I helped a good girl to say goodbye to our cruel world... – I answered sadly. –
            Why do you need me, Your Grace? Can I help you in something?
                  – It’s not about me Madonna. Tell me, your daughter's name is Anna, isn’t it?

                  The walls of the room began to swing... Anna!!! My God, not Anna! I grabbed a
            projecting corner in order not to fall down.
                  – Tell me, Monsignor... You are right; my daughter’s name is Anna.
