"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

Every time they reached a dead end, Atticus would just blast through the maze using his endless supply of holy fire. However, behind them, the same BOOMing sounds just grew louder and louder. The time between thundering echoes grew shorter, and the ground shook harder. Almost as if whatever it was, was running towards them, each second drawing closer at an alarming rate. 


At one point, they burned their way through a hedge, only to find themselves in another square garden. If it weren't for the horrific sound of some giant, unseen monstrosity chasing them, Atticus would have felt inclined to stop and read the obelisk at the center. However, unlocking the rhyming riddle of the maze was no longer on the agenda, so long as he could use brute force to escape. 


"Wait! But the obelisk—!" Bentley started.
