“Per me si va ne la città dolente,
per me si va ne l'etterno dolore,
per me si va tra la perduta gente.
Giustizia mosse il mio alto fattore:
fecemi la divina podestate,
la somma sapienza e 'l primo amore.
Dinanzi a me non fuor cose create
se non etterne, e io etterno duro.
Lasciate ogne speranza, voi ch'entrate”
English Translation:
'Through me you go to the grief wracked city;
Through me you go to everlasting pain;
Through me you go a pass among lost souls.
Justice inspired my exalted Creator:
I am a creature of the Holiest Power,
Of Wisdom in the Highest and of Primal Love.
Nothing till I was made was made,
Only eternal beings. And I endure eternally.
Abandon all hope - Ye Who Enter Here.'
—Dante’s Inferno
Wow, that sounds like it suits your story perfectly! I thought Dante's Inferno was a cartoon show though... O_O
