A 15-year-old girl, angry and isolated after moving to a new state, attended a bonfire party deep in the woods and took strong drugs that caused severe hallucinations. The hallucinations were terrifying, with people's faces morphing into demons and monsters. In desperation to escape the hallucinations, she jumped into the large bonfire, lighting up "like a candle" and burning severely before someone pulled her out. The other teenagers hid her to avoid legal trouble, attempting to clean her wounds and leaving her alone in the dark woods, away from everyone. In agony and knowing she would die, she prayed repeatedly "Just let me out!"

She was pulled up through a pitch-black tunnel and landed on a dark, rocky, treeless plain covered in grey mist with unfamiliar stars overhead. Despite looking like a horror movie scene, it was peaceful. A massive ancient stone wall of a sleeping city towered nearby, with incredibly beautiful music floating down that made her heart hurt with longing - "love and hope in the form of music." She had no body but felt whole, with an invisible tether leading back to her dying body on Earth, which she could faintly feel and wanted nothing to do with.

A beautiful glowing star-like guide appeared, radiating calm intelligence. This instantly made her know God was real, which enraged her as the architect of all suffering. She swelled with destructive anger, wanting to knock the being into another cosmos. A chessboard appeared, and she demanded to know if life was "some sort of game." The guide explained she chose her life and suffering, that Earth exists for eternal beings to learn and grow through struggle, and that facing life's struggles through love was the ultimate test. The guide showed her past experiences and explained her duty, mentioning "there are children that need to be born."

The guide convinced her to return despite her resistance, healing her body through the tether so she could survive. Upon waking at sunrise, still alone and in agony, she eventually made it to a hospital where she healed far better than expected. Now 30 years later, she recognizes it as divine intervention, confirming God's existence and teaching that we are eternal beings choosing earthly experiences for growth. She later married her boyfriend and had the children mentioned by the guide.
