I couldn’t tell you what she got out of our deal. She could do this job just fine without me, after all.
We had an arrangement, however, and she insisted that I keep going.
She provided the blade. I supplied the corpses. The corpses, presumably, kept Hell stocked with souls.
Love to start my morning off with a piece that gets me wondering. Was she the one who crafted the blades specifically for the writer? Did she no longer have the appetite for the kill? Perhaps she made a deal with someone else? There are so many possibilities. :^)
Those are my thoughts as well!
Really interesting story. Is “she” the devil?
Great question. She's a devil, but not the devil.
I debated whether I should name her here, and on a lengthy walk earlier today decided that I should. Her name is Persephone. You'll be hearing a lot about her in the near future.
