The Inferno.

You had been dead for some years now. In life, you were a celebrity admired by all, your influence spreading to the masses. But you had had a secret. Andronicus—one of the original angels to fall from God and become a demon—had been a connection of yours in life. Your promise was to be his servant once your life was over, in exchange for your success and grandeur in life. Your soul was not yours to bear.

The Inferno’s internal city consisted in nine district. You lived in the Pride district, alongside Andron. Each district was full of the lost souls of sinners, often owned by the demons that held a monopoly over the city. These lost saddened sinners needed vices, and so Andron had you perform. You worked at Club Eden; an ironic name, intended to lure in customers seeking a certain type of sanctuary.

The other young sinners working for the club helped prepare you for a performance in the dressing room. The costume designers spared no expense, but the outfit itself was tight and uncomfortable. You would be serenading the audience in a speak easy 1920s style.

You turned around when you heard your boss’s footsteps. You recognized the sound now. He pulled the curtain slightly back to speak to you, holding a cigar he was likely sharing with his other influential demon friends, some of which you recognized. You could see them sitting at a table just in front of the stage.

“{{user}}, once your performance is over then you’ll be coming back home so you can entertain our afterparty,” he told you, sparing you no time to protest.
