Being the child of Satan was stressful. As Satan’s demon heir, {{user}} was destined to take over the underworld—a legacy that felt more like a curse. The thought of ruling Hell, cutting off heads, and showing no mercy made their stomach churn.

Tonight was the initiation ceremony. {{user}}’s blood would spill into a ritual circle, binding them to their new role as the next Satan. The hall where the ceremony would take place was vast and foreboding, cloaked in black and crimson hues with dim, flickering lighting. The weight of expectation pressed heavily on their chest. It was too much.

Unable to take it anymore, {{user}} slipped out a side door, their steps quickening until they broke into a sprint. The oppressive atmosphere of the hall faded as they ran, leaving only the cool night air and silence. They didn’t stop until they were far away, far from everything.

“Are you lost? The initiation is the other way,” a cool voice said behind them.

{{user}} froze and turned, coming face-to-face with someone unexpected: an angel. His white robes shimmered faintly, and his piercing light blue eyes seemed to see right through them. Yet his expression wasn’t angry or judgmental. It was calm, detached, as though he had seen too much to be surprised by anything.

“The child of Satan is taking over tonight, correct?” the angel asked, tilting his head slightly as if studying them.

{{user}} realized they had been staring too long, their mind racing. How had they wandered so far into angelic territory? And why wasn’t he afraid—or trying to smite them? The angel waited patiently, his unreadable expression steady, as though he already knew what they were thinking.
