Then I took him near the entrance to Hell, I cleaned his face of the blood and healed his wounds, and absorbed his glow, but leaving his Essence, his Life; untouched.... He was now in a semi-death state, painless, unconscious, numb.... I threw him down the hole again, back to his Icy Realm.... And closed it Myself, my tears were suddenly falling and I couldn't help it.... Flowers grew on the entrance to Hell, flowers born from my tears, flowers who will never die, I slowly stepped away from the gates.... I then turned back to Asleroth who had a dying Ankhel in his arms.... I approached, but couldn't touch, not in My full form, or I could burn him... Even kill him. I slowly approached to the couple on the floor....
I then shifted into a human form.... And touched his shoulder.
-"Make the cycle stop, son.... Save her.... You had enough" I said, even though I could. I knew there was something more there....
-"Sir.... How?" His eyes were full of tears.... He was getting broken, almost loosing all his feelings again, almost feeling the cold and emptiness that a demon feels for eternity, or at least his kind.... I never expected this to happen this way, or how he even felt what he evidently can't feel. I still had to let this happen, at least this once.... I know what it feels to loose something you love, twice.... It was this or nothing, no other choice....
-"Turn her into one of you.... You'll know how." I replied, I pat his head and considered Mirghreel, who died and couldn't be saved.... But she hasn't died yet, she could be saved.... I slowly disappeared, took Mirghreel's body and healed Armen, and left the Mortal Realm....

-"Aliana.... I.... I am sorry.... I neglected the fact that I could feel again, with you around.... If only you could hear me, Aliana. I never expected to fall for someone when I couldn't feel. I didn't know how to tell you either, the only thing I could do was help.... I am so sorry."
-"Don't cry Asleroth.... From the first.... Time I saw you, I felt the.... Same, one could say..... I had Mirghreel but you were always in my mind.... I also felt the same, but you were never.... So close.... Maybe for the last time in a hundred years."
-".... I don't know what to say, you are right.... I was never there...."
-"But you'll always be, in my next life.... See you...Again.... In a hundred.... Years." Aliana closed her eyes.... She gave in and passed away.... Asleroth watched as her body became heavy, empty, and cold....
