GOTHAM CITY REMINDED LUCIFER OF HOME. The cesspool of sin welcomed him in with open arms after the devil decided to up and leave his throne of torment. Hell was getting boring after all those millennia, Lucifer just needed to get away from it all. Screams of the damned once brought joy to his soul but now they made it as heavy as the victims' agony. Punishing people was what he did best but even a master craftsman can grow tired of their work.
After his failed rebellion against his Father, Lucifer fell from the Silver City. Banished from Heaven and with death ready to greet him upon his return, Lucifer found himself the ruler of the dark cruel place known as Hell. Sure, it was wonderful to start off with. He could take his anger out on those who deserved to suffer and punish them for the atrocities of their lives. But after so many centuries of the same old cycle, the devil grew tired, of well, being the devil.
Humanity, as it appeared, seemed to blame him for all their wrongdoings which was wrong. He punished sinners, he did not create them. So Lucifer decided a vacation was needed.
Leaving Hell behind was much easier than he had previously thought. Before flying up to the mortal world, Lucifer had given away his throne to his most trusted demon, to ensure Hell would continue to run like clockwork in his absence. Sure, he was a little worried about what would transpire without him. But his desire to be free from his hellfire chains overwhelmed it.
Gotham was the sort of place Lucifer could live in for eternity. Its reputation most definitely preceded it. Many of Hell's cells were full of generations of Gothamites who could not escape the dark fate that gripped the city like a vice. The rich stayed rich whilst the poor remained poor. Lucifer, of course, managed to sail his way through society, ascending the ranks and gaining his fortune in such a short space of time.
