"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.

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

Micaiah let Lucifer sit on his own for a little while. However, the tea that she had so lovingly made was going to grow cold if he didn't drink it. So after some time, she coaxed him into joining her in the backyard for a little fresh air. 


Now the two were standing amidst the long, dewy grass and sealed flower buds. Their heads were tilted upwards towards the stretching inky blackness hanging above. Billions of twinkling stars reflected themselves in their eyes, shimmering in the balance of the spiraling cosmos. For some time, neither said anything. They just remained in a mutual —yet sad— sort of silence, sipping away at their cups of tea without so much as a whisper in the rustling night air. 


Once or twice, Lucifer shot a glance over in Micaiah's direction. But amidst the smell of wet ground and honey-sweetened tea, she did not look at him at all. Her eyes were only focused on the universe beyond them. As always.
