Ashes to Ashes

I’ve met demonic humans, but she stands apart.

Like Daji, she doesn’t force control—she engineers it, until people believe her bidding is their own choice.

Realizing her plan might have begun seven years ago left me paralyzed with fear.

But hearing that she used her own father to manipulate mine shattered whatever innocence I had left.

Thankfully, my father had his own deities protecting his sanctity.

But now he is in hades, who can genuinely helped us?

A bad man desires arbitrary power. An evil person desires power not for status or glory, but to make others feel weak and to relish the chaos they can cause.
