"How intriguing..." Thanatos replied while watching Lorelei's soul along with Mephistopheles and Lucifer.

Thanatos, in ancient Greek religion and mythology, is the personification of death. Thanatos was the son of Nyx, the goddess of night, and the brother of Hypnos, the god of sleep. He appeared to humans to carry them off to the underworld when the time allotted to them by the Fates had expired.

Lucifer is the name of various figures in folklore associated with the planet Venus. Due to the unique movements and discontinuous appearances of Venus in the sky, traditional narratives surrounding these figures often involved a fall from the heavens to Earth or the underworld. Originally stemming from a son of the personified dawn, the goddess Aurora, in Roman mythology, the entity's name was subsequently absorbed into Christian folklore as a name for Satan.

Put simply, God saw an existence where, through giving we can all, receive. Lucifer did not want to give, nor serve. He wanted to only take and think of the self at expense of others. Within this Lucifer (and those that followed “him”) did not wish to help life, God, the sustainer of life, humanity and so forth. There became no way back. As of the decision made at this time, which has not changed God (the sustainer of life) has been the opposite of Lucifer/Satan (and all those that fell with him) as they became “takers of life”. Nevertheless, he's a God who takes life or exchanges it.

"Their souls are already fed on. Who do you think did that?" Lucifer asked Thanatos for his assistance.

Lorelei and Jezebel, both tried to steal what wasn't theirs, 'The prodigy child's power'. They should've been normal corrupted souls, but, when Mephistopheles bought them to Hell, a part of their souls had already been taken.

"It's the place with open doors, 'The Open Egress'..." Thanatos answered briefly.

"I see. Means 'The Sanctuary' who once, was blessed with 'Cerulean Conflagration' is now, a power of it's own?" Lucifer queried.

"I doubt it's the only thing. Someone is definitely controlling those gates and place. Someone who has already crossed the boundaries of life. And, the sad part is, we can't interfere." Thanatos replied, somewhat displeased with his findings.

"I wonder who could it be... Mephistopheles!" Lucifer ordered by taking his name. He bowed before His Master. He was ready to go towards Earth to make the deal complete.

"Go contact the prodigy girl. 'The Sanctuary', a place with 'An Open Egress' is already being controlled by an insider of her very own family. Protect them. For it was Hestia's wish." Lucifer commanded.

"Alright." Mephistopheles raised himself to leave again.

"And..." Thanatos started. Mephistopheles looked back towards him.

"Make sure you bring these incomplete souls along with that corrupt soul." He finished.

"I will." Saying this, Mephistopheles vanished.

Author's Note :

The prologue is here. It's the same as the last part of 'An Open Egress' though. With this, we'll try to complete the process of ONC deadlines.
