[ WP ] People in this town have somehow stopped aging . The locals are calling it a blessing , but you know different .

Out of nowhere, this town showed up on the map. An entire town. This is n't usual but nonetheless even the population of Pompeii showed up within a day. It was my job to go out to the town and judge the residents there. 
 
 I walked the sidewalks as if I was one of them. I dressed the same as them, talked the same as them, and even sat in a cafe with some of them. People either trusted me completely, hated me entirely, or had an iffy feeling once they saw me. Nonetheless, they went about with their day enjoying their forever `` youth.'' 
 
 My job is to inspect the people I come across. Not by following them, but by seeing their beliefs that wrapped their minds. Then, I could send them directly to Heaven or Hell. I saw sinners who wanted no forgiveness -- their souls did n't believe in The Creator. However, there were ones who only wanted complete redemption for they poured their existence into Him. These people, who were on the far ends of the spectrum, were the easiest to say goodbye to. The others who were in the gray area, were in this purgatory until I found a place that reflects their lives. 
 
 `` I hear it's the water! The last rainfall we had must've put a little magic in the aquifer! Life sure is great right now.'' said the elderly woman to her friend. 
 
 `` Life sure is! I only wish my dog was here. Lil Ol' Sue got lost along with that storm 2 years ago. She was the last family I had.'' said the friend. She wonders where her pet is, but they do n't need to be judged. They're automatically dismissed to be reincarnated and, if they were nice, they could choose what to be in the next life. 
 
 Little by little, the population decreases. People claim that they just move. That they found a job somewhere else. Their family needed them from their old hometown. There was always a reason as to why somebody disappeared, but not to why they themselves stayed. This ignorance is the type of ignorance that's blissful. They had no idea about the war they died from. 
 
 > *The bomb siren was close to being repared. In bright daylight, a single aircraft was seen in the sky. It looked so big, that it could have blocked out half the sun. People watched its moves until it reached the center. Then, when the bombs were released into midair, death shrieked the names he was taking. All 4,632 of them. Ashes rained soon after. * 
 
 `` Ever since that rain, my joints have been healed! No more pain in the knuckles of my hands, nor in the knees of my legs.'' 
 
 `` It sure is a miracle, Janet. It's as if that rain cleansed us of our suffering.''
