So!
If you prefer not to be on the receiving end of Hell's worst ministrations, here are your options as Ileosa knows them, with attendant benefits and costs, in order from the most to least viable.
1. Be so incredibly loyal to Hell or spectacularly wicked that Hell rewards you in order to incentivize evil behavior in others.
Pros: Presumably you kind of wanted to do this anyway.
Cons: It doesn't fucking work. People will tell you that this works. They are lying, and actually it doesn't. Probably throughout history this has worked for exactly enough people for you to hope that it will work for you, while not working for enough people that it actually includes you.
2. Bargain in advance for Hell not to break you utterly.
Pros: You can combine this with other options.
Cons: Where to start. So, for starters, many people think that they're competent to pull this off. Fewer actually swing it! And then obviously Hell isn't going to pay for anything that they wouldn't get either way, so you've got to have something you can offer. And then at the end of it all, "not break you utterly" is kind of a low bar, don't you think?
3. Become undead.
Pros: Well, it's better than dying.
Cons: All forms of undeath have their own drawbacks, and there's the public relations angle, and it messes with your personality, and Hell gets you in the end. Still, you could get centuries this way. Ileosa makes sure to enjoy sunny days, because she's been operating for years on the assumption that she's probably going to get vampirized eventually.
4. Get your soul destroyed.
Pros: Better than Hell if you don't negotiate your treatment.
Cons: You get your fucking soul destroyed.
5. Get Axis by worshiping a LN god or Norgorber.
If a follower of Gorum or Calistira was evil in ways that the deity approved, then yes, those followers do go to the appropriate deity's realm on Elysium. If they were evil in ways that were inappropriate, they'll probably go to the Abyss instead. As for who gets to decide what's appropriate or not... that's pretty much left to Pharasma (perhaps with some consultation with the other deity in question).

Pros: Popular understanding is that if you're the follower of a god and follow Their strictures and see the world the way They see it, you go to Their divine domain when you die. It's commonly assumed that you have to be within an alignment step of Them, but maybe it's just that it's rare for someone to be aligned enough with one and not within an alignment step.
Cons: Being a devout Abadaran or Norgorberite isn't necessarily easier or less restrictive than making LN the normal way, though, at least if you're not a half-fiend or chromatic dragon or something else that's even more innately Evil than humans are. And while clerics know that they're approved of by their god because otherwise they wouldn't be clerics, non-clerics have no easy way of telling. And the final judgement is made in the Boneyard, by someone who doesn't like it when you try and cheat the system. And it conflicts with pre-negotiating accommodations in Hell.
6. Have an alignment other than LE.
Pros: Ehhhhh.
Cons: It's really hard, and who knows whether it'll even work for you. Your life will be less pleasant in the meantime, and probably shorter. You're letting down your family. You're letting down your country. You're letting down your celebrity crush Queen Abrogail Thrune the Second. The alignment you can see with spells isn't a guarantee of which afterlife you'll get. They have a whole court system for deciding that. And trusting your fate to the courts conflicts with pre-negotiating accommodations in Hell. And none of the afterlives are as fun as being alive on the Prime Material.
7. Find some way to live forever.
Pros: She knows it's been done before. And she wants it more than anything.
Cons: Mostly it's been done before by, like, powerful wizards. She doesn't know the secret - or a secret - to immortality, not yet. But she's young yet, and maybe she can find one in time...
8. Reincarnate, apparently??
Pros: None of the afterlives seem as much fun as being alive on the Prime Material. Unless you have to live some sort of ascetic lifestyle to reincarnate, in which case Axis is probably more fun.
Cons: ???
