"They opened the cells up,which was great,"Chinthu said."They have spent a lot of time praying together."
Chan,an ordained minister,is deeply religious. According to Matius Arif Mirdjaja,a former career criminal and drug dealer who credits Chan with turning his life around,the Sydneysider told him:"Fear not,you can kill the body,but you cannot kill the soul."
Sukumaran's last words to him,he said,were:"I'm not spiritual but I know where I'm going,man."
There are no provisions for a final meal for execution victims in Indonesia. But the Bali nine duo organised food for everyone.
For their last night,it was boxes of chicken from KFC,a wildly popular favourite for Indonesians.
Myuran has been painting frenetically,producing some extraordinary work.
On what he expected to be his final full night on earth,Myuran barely slept,painting four canvases,haunting self portraits,a rendering of the Indonesian flag and a picture of a heart.
Each of the nine prisoners pressed their fingerprints into the blood red paint of the flag,which drips down over the white portion of the flag.
The last painting was the heart,dangling from its arteries and entitled"Satu hati satu rasa didalam cinta - (one heart,one feeling in love)".
Members of the firing squad aim for the heart when they kill the convicts,their bodies marked by a target pinned to their chests.
Each of the nine condemned signed it and some inscribed a personal message on the back of the canvas.
"God Bless Indonesia"wrote Okwudili Ayotanze,a Nigerian man who formed a band with prison guards while in prison on Nusakambangan,their place of execution.
"Keep smiling"wrote Mary Jane Fiesta Veloso,the Philippines mother who was duped into smuggling heroin into Indonesia.
In their final moments with their families,there were plenty of tears. Not from Andrew and Myuran though. They were defiantly full of life,but ready to meet their fate.
