Satan had been running Hell with an iron fist while Lucifer was taking a holiday of sorts. And, he was enjoying it. Having all of Hell obey everything he said no matter what, supreme power…it was great.

Then, of course, it couldn’t last forever. No, not because Lucifer had returned. But because one of his kids was there to take over in his absence.

Satan couldn’t complain too much…yes, it was annoying. But they did come to him a lot for advice in their temporary ‘taking over for dad’ rule. So, he still got a lot of influence and a lot of input.

“Ugh…why did your father draw so many ducks on the paperwork?”
