Synopsis
Death row inmate Adam, Prisoner A456GG, faces his execution with an unusual last. As the lethal injection claims his life, his desperate ritual to the forgotten god Gefatar succeeds in ways he never imagined. Instead of eternal darkness, Adam awakens in a world the likes of which he has never seen . But this isn't heaven or hell - it's another world entirely. Armed with nothing but his criminal past and the dark power that brought him here, Adam must navigate a land of magic and monsters. What the authorities who executed him didn't know was that they weren't just killing a condemned man - they were unleashing someone who would reshape the very fabric of their reality. As Adam uncovers the truth about Gefatar and his grandmother's connection to this world, he realizes his death was only the beginning of a journey that will challenge the boundaries between justice, vengeance, and redemption. In a world where magic flows like water and ancient powers stir, a former death row inmate might just become its greatest hope - or its worst nightmare. The question is: can someone judged unworthy of life in one world become the savior of another?

Chapter 1 - A Prisoner's Last Prayer

As Adams shivers, turning in his sleep restlessly, whilst sweating buckets, he is awoken by several rounds of metallic thuds coming from his prison door. The prison guard shouts "Wake up, you fool!"

Four prison guards come in head to toe in riot gear; they are overprotected, but rightly so - in this 4 by 4 feet prison cell lies a dangerous criminal, a threat to humanity. Adam opens his eyes slowly, unbothered by all the ruckus caused by the police; he is surprisingly unresponsive. The prison guard attacks him with a baton; he doesn't respond, doesn't even move any part of his body. The prison guards, laughing, put shackles on his hands and feet and pick him up and place a headgear so he's unable to see, spit, or bite, or able to communicate.

The headgear is taken off Adam; he is in a bigger room with floor-to-ceiling bulletproof windows. The shackles are taken off his legs and hands, and he is then violently thrown into the center of the room. The guards laughingly walk off. Adam is now all by himself; he has a TV, games console, all types of beverages he has not seen for years. He puts in the latest RPG game into the games console and plays. Surprisingly, through a speaker in the wall, a light, airy, almost heavenly feminine voice asks, "Prisoner A456GG, what would you like to eat, sir? I repeat, what would you like to eat, sir?" It has been forever since Adam has heard a woman's voice; it sounds like an angel to him. He slowly comes back to reality and asks, "What is on the menu? What can I order?" The lady, bafflingly and worriedly, responds, "Sir, I hope you haven't forgotten this is the last meal you are ever going to have. Per the state code, before an execution of a prisoner, you can order anything for your last meal."

Adam, lost in thought, responds, "I would like to eat 1 kilo of dirt, 1 gallon of fruit bat blood, a whole chicken cooked, a whole goat, cooked. Also need a gallon of freshly brewed milk. I also need a red and black pen as well as tissues." The woman taking Adam's order is dumbfounded and bursts out laughing and says, "I've been working here for 20 years and never seen such a dumb order. But ok, we will bring that to you." About 3 hours later, the bulletproof door is opened and all the goods and food ordered by Adam is placed in the center of the room.

As the door is closed, Adam takes the red pen and black pen and begins to draw a circle in the center of the room. He then draws a triangle within the circle and then four lines that interconnect within the triangle. Adam then takes the gallon of bat blood and whilst drinking the blood, he spits it out, dispersing it within the circle he has drawn. He then smudges the blood inside the circle on the floor with his hands. With the blood, he then begins to write, "In life we die, in death we rise, forever, together, we hold and strife. Gefatar bring me back to life." This is a spell he read in a book he found in his grandma's house. Gefatar is an old god that his grandma had statues of in her house. He then seats in the center, eats his meal, and waits to be taken to his execution.

Adam has accepted his death and is now waiting for the guards to take him. Eight guards now come open the door; they are completely shocked, dumbfounded - one slips on the blood on the floor which has leaked to the door from the circle; they are completely horrified. One shouts, "What the hell is this?" Adam looks at them laughingly, "Nothing much, just a ritual I saw in an old book." The guards rush over to Adam, grab him, put him in chains and escort him to his execution chair.

They put him in the chair, strap him up; the doctor in the execution room takes out a huge needle which is full of chemicals that should kill someone in mere minutes. Adam is placed a blindfold on him; the doctor states, "You shall suffer and die and burn in hell for all the sins you have committed." The doctor slowly injects the needle into Adam and slowly injects the death serum into Adam. Adam screams and screeches in agony; his body jumps from side to side being held down by the straps placed on him.

Adam is struggling to breathe; he can't breathe anymore. He slowly loses consciousness; his life flashes before his eyes; everything goes black; his heart stopped beating. Adam is now pronounced dead; the doctor who injected the serum has a smile on his face and says, "Suffer you fool, burn in hell for eternity."

Adam opens his eyes and screams in agony, "Nooooooo! I can't die, not yet... wait, where am I?" Adam looks around in disbelief; all around him is beautiful grass; there are horses running around. One horse runs fast and then takes off and starts running in the sky. Adam touches his face and pinches himself to wake up. He is still in the same place. He dumbfoundedly walks to the lake; in the water there are animals the like of which he has never seen.

Adam walks to the edge of the lake; looking into the clear crystal blue water's reflection, he sees himself, his own body and face. He goes to drink the water; the water tastes amazing. This is real; he is not dreaming. He remembers he was just executed. "Am I dead? Am I in the afterlife?" Beyond in the distance, he sees a medieval castle with dragons flying above. Adam exclaims, "No way there are dragons! There aren't dragons in heaven or hell! Am I in another world? I am in another world!!!" he yells.
