After that Anubis put his heart on one side of a scale, on the other was placed the feather of the goddess of justice - Moth, If the heart was heavier it meant that the deceased was a sinner and he would be sent to Amit to be killed once again. If it had the same weight as the feather, he was sent to Aaru - an Egyptian paradise. In Norse mythology, Valhalla was the place only for the greatest warriors, and the others were taken to Helheim.
