[quote=@thewizardguy] [@supertinyking] As Ozzy names the crimes of those present, Alice simply stands deadly still, a quiet subsonic hiss resonating from her. However, even as a demon appears to once more drag them back to their pits, Alice stops him. "So you choose to torture them? To indulge their existence with an entire realm of petty vengeance? To drown the afflicted in their hatred, that they might never rest in peace?" She growls, bladed tentacles extending from her back. "Is this your justice? A twisted and petty plan, the indulgence of all that is wrong? Do you truly think this helps anyone, that this improves anyone's lives? That chasing such hatreds is not a waste of time and mercy?" She slashes backwards, tearing the head from one of the damned souls off in a single swipe. "Who are you that you think you can dictate who deserves peace. Do you really have the arrogance to declare yourself a God?" [/quote] "....No, I never declared myself a god. I never claimed to be the one to create this whole system. There is a god who did, however. He chooses which ones go here, and which go to Heaven, a place of eternal rest and paradise, and those who fail to meet his standards..are dragged here, kicking and screaming. We demons, we were created by the fallen general of Heaven..his name, simply, Doom, Apocalypse....Lucifer. He was mutilated and cast into this infernal pit for refusing to bow to humans....as he felt they weren't worthy of the chance they were given. As such, now, this place exists. I over threw him, and now I run this infernal place....but I don't decide who end up down here. The big man upstairs does. Before you ask, no, we can't fight him. Hell, we turn to dust, body, mind, and soul should we step foot into his domain..." Ozzy starts, seeming to grow sad. ".....I honestly do feel bad for these people at times. Some humans are works of art. Beautiful things....but should we not do this, we would be wiped away like ash from a mirror, only to be replaced so the cycle may continue......Nothing has been able to shift the cycle. No one strong enough to strong enough to storm into heaven, and dethrone the tyrant who sits in the pearly throne...at least..not until now." Ozzy's eyes look over Alice. He smiles, not a smile of deviousness, nor of malicious intent..but one of, surprisingly, hope. "A beautiful creature...something like you, might just be what's needed to turn the tides." He states, seeming filled with some sort of hope. In reality, most of what he's said is lies...but his deceptions are so flawlessly stated, it's almost impossible to sniff out their falsehoods.
