[The smell of burning sulfur and the awful feeling in his throat and nose as a result. The sound and strangeness to the air all around them. Matt idly rubs his arm and remembers there's a minor wound there. He had forgotten about it.]
All my life I've heard about Heaven and God and how this world and everyone in it is a victim of sin and a few decisions away from damnation... [He pauses to wet his lips.] It never felt this heavy before.
