ENVY (Mario: The Music Box ARC)

The sin of Envy. The overwhelming longing for the blessings and achievements of another. This feeling that is capable of making one doubt their own self worth and meaning in this world, and he was no exception. While he was alive, he felt this envy for his very own brother, whom he cherished dearly. Upon his death, however, this overwhelming burden of envy plagues him to his grave and created a being that is composed of all of his resentment and covetousness. A being comprised of his loathing and bitterness and one that has only one goal in mind: to step out the shadows and kill the one that forced him to experience such an existence.

And, just his luck, this person is right in his grasp. Within the church of sins, from whence he came, he looks forward to showing his "beloved brother" who shall truly stand victorious. All he shall see as he takes his final breaths...
...is green.
