❛ There are certain things one shouldn't have to face in life. Time enough for self-reflection after. ❜ - from lucas!

there is no lack of sympathy for the children of god which the heavens have turned their backs on, even from death himself. sympathy does not beget the turning of blind eyes to sins, however. the look ankou gives lucas is disappointed at best, the subtle curl in his lips hinting to the reaper's own opinion of him. two steps forward, perhaps, but always four steps back.

gods own angel lacked a firm foot in reality, it would seem. there is truth, then, that good intentions paved his way to hell.

"and that is why you not only destroyed your own life, but took your sister down with you." despite the scathing remark, his expression is pitiable, his voice gentle. "had you reflected whilst still alive, you could have done any number of things to improve your circumstances. your sister was going to die, no matter the steps you took, when the hatred you fostered in your heart prevented you from taking the one path you could have to save her life. you should not have had to face those tragedies, no. but you did have to. how did waiting until your death to reflect on those decisions turn out for you, mortal?"

he is not a kind master. death rarely is. an understanding one, perhaps, but one that would coddle the sinners who sought redemption in the depths of hades, absolutely not. "if you continue to turn away from reality, you will never redeem yourself. i suggest you begin self-reflecting a little more deeply."
