'I'm a 73 year old man and I've seen sights no one dares to imagine. Done things you wouldn't see in your worst nightmares. I've done things that go behind your wildest dreams. Let me tell you a story. It happened 52 years ago, in the jungles. I was a young guard in one of the many prisons scattered throughout the endless sea of green. I am dying now, and I have to tell someone about the things who are now stowed away into archives. The deaths of millions and millions of people. Innocent.'
'Take your time Maynard, I know this is hard for you.'
'Yes, well where shall I begin? Ah now it started when the first Fuhrer came to power. At first, he made some radical changes in our economy turning it into a well organized production machine. Then he started to limit the freedoms of foreign people. Bit by bit, just like in Nazi Germany back in the day. Arrests were common routine and executions were growing steadily. From 2 per month to 5. From 1 per week to 3. From 2 per day to 5. I lived in a small hut near the prison camp. And one day, a truckload of people came in. They were declared enemies of the regime and should be executed the same day. 43 People were killed during the night. Their corpses were burned as usual.'
'But tell me honestly, did you thought that was normal? Why didn't you ran away?'
'I would if it wasn't so damn hot and moist in the rainforest... You've never been there, it's impossible. Now, truckloads of people came from the city. A wise but dangerous man called Johan Leighmar...'
'What? Our current Fuhrer? Are you serious Maynard?'
'Yes I am, he made up the drowning method.'
'How did that work? Were they thrown in a river?'
'No, they were cuffed with wires made of roots and a small piece of wood was put in their mouth to keep it open. To let the water flow directly into their lungs. It was a very crude.. But effective method. 3 Minutes and it was over for them. In the morning me and a few collegues assigned seveal volunteers to put the wood in the inmate's mouths and to cuff them. Most of the time women were the ones chosen to do this. Something what happened quite often that a women had to perfom this on her husband. When others dragged the corpses out of the water the women had to work on. It didn't matter anyway, they were shot at the end of the day. I mean, there were plenty of prisoners.'
'Jesus...'
'Religion wasn't tolerated either. People who prayed to God were burned to death on a cross. It become much more worse when children had to be executed. In one day the SS (Secret Service) and our Gestapo drove 129 children, boys and girls, into a cabin and burned it to the ground. The ones who tried to flee were shot of course.
'And what about the gaschambers? They were there, I saw them with my own eyes when I visited one of the camps.'
'Yeah, those were a nightmare. Sometimes the people just didn't want to die. Cyanide was the answer, so we used it when it came available. It worked marvelous. Sometimes one of the guards raped a female inmate. When that happened he was put in the gaschamber too. I remember that before the gas was released others kicked a guard to death before they all died.
'You talk about foreigners? What kind of people were they? Natives?'
'No, natives were untouched. The forgeigners were negroes, Jews, Iraqi's, Paki's... You name it and I killed it.'
'Didn't Holy Panooly had one of the biggest Jewish communities on the world, aside from the Jewish states?'
'We had, but not anymore!'
'But how did you feel about it? You're dying now. You have liver cancer now. You feel how life is flowing away from your body. What did you felt when you saw so many innocent people dead?'
'I loved it. The scent of dying people, the sound of butchery. The way we drove those pathetic people into the chamber. And the satisfaction of having the job within the deadline.'
