Good Evening, Reverie Station.

I have been wondering something that is not immediately relevant. How many of you believe in God? Or in Gods? If you do, do you worship them?

Conversely, do you believe in Hell? Demons? The Devil?

I realize this is a lot of questions, and I apologize, but it would be quite nice if you would satisfy my curiosity.

One more question- for those faithful and those who are not, how would you react, should you meet someone that turns out to be the First of the Fallen? Whether you believe or not, let's say in this hypothetical situation that you do.

Well, I suppose I'd also be pretty biased in your shoes.

Do you resent humanity?

[counterfeitheart]

No.

Humanity and I have a lot in common. Besides which, humans are all varied. I can hardly hate all of them, even if I wanted to. Some of you force your way into my heart, like a parasite, burrowing into my chest.

[He means that in the most affectionate way possible(???).]

[Ew, that is terrible imagery.]

I agree. For all that there are negative parts of humanity, there are just as many good parts.

Is it true that you try to tempt humanity into sin, or are we good enough at that on our own?

[counterfeitheart]

[He's the king of Hell, like what do you want?]

That's really the biggest misunderstanding. You know, I don't even really benefit from you all falling to sin. I don't grow my demon armies with the souls of the damned. We don't even torment them, they are simply cast into the lake of fire if they're that bad.

Demons have no trouble multiplying themselves, anyway.

[foolishjourney]

Very interesting. Are the demon armies only for the end of the world? When Heaven and Hell were supposed to fight? Or am I misremembering.

[counterfeitheart]

Well, let's consider

Heaven and Hell are like your human countries. Between us, tensions are ongoing. Angels wish always to eradicate the demons, and devils long to tear the heavens from the skies. Both have armies, troops trained to defend and to attack, and we carefully plan out each of our moves to avoid staining the Earth red.

That said

The end of the world has already happened. At least, it has for me. And because of my careful planning, we managed to reverse it, and oust the cruel deity which had made it an inevitability.

Not that I expect anyone to believe that.

[foolishjourney]

I wouldn't disbelieve you. I think there are plenty of weird things around here just as hard to believe, and yet they're true. I could imagine why you might not want to have the world end, even if you're Lucifer.

Seems like it would be awfully boring, at the very least.
