"#Look."

Abaddon was waiting for Hope's inevitable demise to come about when Kami did the last thing no one would have expected him to do: Sacrifice himself to save the city. At first Abaddon had thought that the meta was simply trying to absorb whatever remaining power was left in the city to fully cleanse himself from the malignant energy he had been pumped with and absorbed during their fight, but such wasn't the case. Kami continued to pull at the energy coursing through Hope until eventually he was ripped apart by the corruption Abaddon had infected it with.

"..."

So in the end, a being who wanted to become a god of the city sacrificed himself for it, a final show of human nature, while Abaddon, who fought to keep the city from his grasp, simply let it fall to its death. Looks like one of them was more human after all.

"Noble, huh?"

That's when he turned his attention to a strange rift opening in the area. Abaddon decided to go and check it out, returning from Sheol back to the power plant in Hope city.
