Narrator's Pov
The air filled with sulfur and metallic scent. A crimson sky with a pentagram stretched across the horizon, casting an otherworldly red glow over the landscape. A developed city was under it, as it is known as Pride City of Hell.
Destruction was everywhere, violence, horrid screaming, lit up flames, sexual tension, gruesome scenery and the finishing touch, Sinners.
Anthropomorphic demons roam around the city, having their free will to do anything they desire. Doing crimes, drugs, sex, murder, robbery, and many more sinful acts.
Far away from the city, a black palace exuded an aura of malevolence, its ancient stones bearing witness to centuries of unspeakable deeds and lingering curses. Inside the corridors, was the King of Hell himself. Ruler of Pride Ring, he was at his workshop making something such as.. Ducks?
Yes. Ducks.
Tinkering and building another one of his ducklings for his collection, as his workshop was filled with who knows how many.. Rubber ducks.
What a strange King they have.
But this is no ordinary strange King. This is Lucifer Morningstar. A fallen Angel who was casted out from Heaven with Lilith, the woman he loved and was the First Man's wife. By an act of disobedience, giving the Fruit of Knowledge to Eve, unfortunately, thats when Evil was started. As they arrived at the fiery depths of red, they started their own Kingdom. Two powerful beings created Hell.
Years have passed, Lucifer and Lilith ruled the City and expanded it making a total of 7 rings with 7 powerful demons ruling each ring including Lucifer also known as the 7 Deadly Sins: Pride, Envy, Sloth, Gluttony, Wrath, Lust and Greed.
Until then, a princess was born, Charlie Morningstar. She was his light, happiness, and hope. She was a heir to their throne as she would rule someday.
Not for long, as she grew older the King and Queen separated from an argument. Isolating himself from his family that led to his depression. Its been centuries ever since he even interacted with them.
As he finishes his rubber duck. He places it on his table and heaves a sigh. Suddenly, a circus theme ringtone was coming from his hellphone making him jolt in surprise. He grabbed his phone from his pocket as his eyes widened in shock to see who it was.
"Oh by golly! Ch-charlie- Daughter?! Daughter is calling! Uhh- Uhm-.." he takes a deep breath to soothe his nerves.
"You can do this Lucifer. Don't screw this up," he answers the call and pressed his phone against his ear and say,
"Sup, bitch!"
"Uh- Hey, dad. Uhm.. How are you?" Charlie spoke through his phone, sounding quite cringed by his greeting.
"Oh I'm doing fine, haha. So uh how about you? If this is about your hotel, I already told you that I can't help you with that." he said nervously.
He could hear her sigh and speaks up.
"Well, this isn't 'project' related. Remember the amusement park you always take me when I was a kid?""Loo Loo Land? What about it?" he raises a brow, curious of what she's implying to.
"Haven't you heard from the news? The park was destroyed. Burned. An accident happened from.. I don't know, imps attacking a robo circus jester and caused the destruction as they ended up burning up the whole place." she informed him.
