It was cold.
Temperature should not have mattered in the realm Averie was loitering in, yet he could swear something uncomfortable had his body feeling like chilled packaged water.
He looked around at the domain that was both pink and grey.
Other than him, none of the usual suspects were there.
Lilith's Womb was quiet and empty.
'Where are they?'
This sight would have been concerning if it were any other full moon night.
'Well, they can't possibly take over my body tonight.'
Because someone else had already done that.
'What's he doing anyway? Nothing concerning, I hope.'
Averie recalled the evening.
He had fallen asleep beside Min-Ha after returning to his room. As if the day's fatigue wasn't punishment enough, he was subjected to Lilith's Womb, thanks to the weakening of the third tattoo's seal.
'It feels more like a feature than a bug. No doubt this is Lucifer's way of playing a prank.'
But he couldn't protest; he had agreed to something he probably shouldn't have.
