"Bentley Hellbourne is dead,"

Those words were echoed in the pages of history, celebrating the infamous demon's death at the hands of her angelic arch-nemesis. After eighty-five years of peace between Heaven and Hell, the world is finally getting used to its current state of balance. But when Bentley inexplicably comes crawling back from her grave to wreak havoc once again, the structure of the four realms instantly comes crashing down.

After reuniting with his formerly deceased rival, low-ranking angel Atticus pash de Ophaniel finds himself caught up in a wild tangle of adventures. From babysitting Lucifer himself, to discovering horrible truths about his own existence, Atticus is forced to acknowledge the trauma of his past. And in doing so, unearths memories of a long-lost friendship held between himself and the person he always thought he hated the most.

God's Gone AWOL

There was nothing else hidden in the garden that they could find, so they once again followed the path back into the gloomy maze. This time, nobody was in the lead. Atticus and Bentley stayed side by side while Leslie followed a few steps behind, contributing very little to the direction the group took. —Not that it really mattered anyway. They had no map or guide or indication on where to go, so really all they could do was wander until they found another obelisk or perhaps even a door. 


While they were walking, Atticus started thinking. The rhymes written on the two obelisks had managed to mention himself, Bentley, Lucifer, and Hazel —though none directly by name. The second line of the first rhyme had to be talking about the change in dynamic between Atticus and Bentley, how they were no longer at each other's throats all the time. It was accurate. But the second line of the second rhyme seemed a little more daunting. Atticus wasn't sure how to feel about it yet.
