Darktober Day 16 - Anger

“Macabre and I had to be away from the main realm we hang out in for a while. Turned out that during that time, another demon named Marduk tried to take over, recruiting the wandering demon, Vex, for his plans. Vex was going along with things willingly, apparently simply out of boredom, but did actually try to defeat the friends we made there. Astonishingly, those mortals held their own, forcing Marduk, who was still in the process of regaining his power after a long imprisonment, to take over Vex’s body. The mortals still won, but Vex was infuriated over how he was treated and aided them in defeating and resealing Marduk.

Maybe it was a good thing Macabre and I weren’t able to help out. We probably could’ve taken the fight straight to Marduk quickly, which wouldn’t have given Vex the chance to fight for the good of the realm. It was after everything that Vex decided to fully disavow his allegiance to Hell, and not only did we make a powerful ally, I’d say he’s a good friend.

Once he learned to tone down his own brand of mischief, at least.”
