Chapter 0: Prologue
They say every demon is a fallen angel. Broken creature that abandoned their ethereal wings, their purity, their life.
But it has not always been that way. Or should I say, it never really was. Humans created this fantasy in hopes of alleviating the doom of demons. People tend to incline towards poor creatures that were forced to sacrifice their purity. Forced by the circumstances, corrupted by the cruel world. The basic saviour complex.
But this world is different. Hell and heaven coexist in relative peace. Well, maybe peace is a tad too strong word. They do not seek conflict though, you just shouldn't expect them to get along too much. The cooperation is purely on a formal basis.
The essence of this symbiosis is the nature of our world. You might have heard that each human has its own guardian angel who protects them. Well, another falsity created by humans to ease their minds.
In our world, demons are created in hell with a determined fate of being evil, just like the angels are created in heaven, designed to be good-doers. However, demons are given the opportunity to alter their fate. To go against the odds.
Every demon is assigned a guardian angel in hopes that they will grow kind enough to go to heaven. During this process, the eligible demon is sent to earth, unbeknownst of their guardian angel. However, the angel can choose to reveal themselves at any desired time.
A large majority of demons fail this challenge, very obviously too evil to do any good deeds. But there are exceptions. Some of them were just unlucky to be born demons and deep inside they're the most caring and kindhearted of their kind.
So what about the kin of Lucifer himself?
