“NO! ABYZOU! BABY!” Astaroth screamed towards her child’s captors, but they were all in vain, as her screams were only sounds of roars and grunts to the humans. They saw it as an act of aggression, and a sign to shoot. With a blink of an eye, everything went dark, her pleading roars faded into quiet whimpers, then silence.
My baby…why? My child…my only child… Her mind was spinning, worry became fear, and fear insights anger. How could they?! They took my child! Those monsters! I’ll kill them…my poor baby… “I’LL KILL THEM!” Astaroth jumped up suddenly, having awoken from her fainting. She was furious, and she wanted vengeance. For her daughter, and to atone for her failure as a mother. She couldn’t protect her daughter, it was something she had to admit, and she would never forgive herself for the fact. Hunger for revenge and atonement raged inside her, with those thoughts in mind, off she went to hunt.
It didn’t matter how long it took, she just needed to avenge her daughter, those monsters had to pay, pay for taking her child, pay for causing her grief, and pay if they had killed her. She wanted to believe that her daughter had survived, that she didn’t die at the hands of those foul creatures. But hope meant nothing in the face of darkness, when she couldn’t see any hope at all. All she wanted now, was to kill, kill, kill, kill, KILL!
Days turned into weeks, weeks into months, she no longer knew how much time had passed, but she was determined to find them, and found them she did. Blood was spilled, faces clawed, limbs torn. All her anger was unleashed onto the sinners, they had to pay, they MUST pay. When it was over, she kneeled down, and sobbed. It was over, but nothing could bring her dear child back. There wasn’t anything she could do but cry her heart out for her beloved child. However, before she could fully process her emotions and grief, a flash of flames brought her back to reality, and words formed in front of her, “Congratulations! He was impressed by your resilience and fires within, you have been accepted as the new Archduchess of WRATH.” With that, fires burst all around her, and she was sent straight to hell to claim her newfound title.
Upon arriving in hell, she watched the fires burn around her, she instantly knew of her role, her role to rule, to dominate, and to destroy everything that got in her way of her destination. Slowly, she walked up to the place that she now called home, receiving her title, and turning to see the land she now ruled over, Wrath. Having taken her revenge and anger out on the humans, she now had a new goal, to find her daughter, and she knew exactly where she was. As she gazed up towards the other layers of hell, she whispers to herself, “Abyzou…wait for me…mama’s coming…”
