TW: spoilers up ahead

"Once upon a time there was a glowing city protected by golden gates known as Heaven. It was ruled by beings of pure light. Angels that worshipped good and shielded all from evil. Lucifer was one of these angels. He was a dreamer with fantastical ideas for all of creation, but he was seen as a troublemaker by the Elders of Heaven, for they felt his way of thinking was dangerous to the order of their world. So he watched as the angels began to expand the universe in their ways. From the dust of Earth they created Adam and Lilith, equals as the first of mankind but despite this, Adam demanded control and Lilith refused to submit to his will. She fled the garden drawn in by her fierce independence Lucifer found her and the two rebellious dreamers fell deeply in love. Together, they wished to share the magic of free will with humanity offering the fruit of knowledge to Adam's new bride Eve. Who gladly accepted. But this gift came with a curse. For with this single act of disobedience, evil finally found its way into Earth. With it a new realm of darkness and sin, and the order Heaven had worked to maintain was shattered. As punishment for their reckless act, Heaven cast Lucifer and his love into the dark pit he had created. Never allowing him to see the good that came from humanity. Only the cruel and the wicked. Ashamed, Lucifer lost his will to dream. But Lilith thrived, empowering demonkind with her voice and her songs and as the numbers of hell grew, so did its power. Threatened by this, Heaven made a truly heartless decision. That every year, they would send down an army, an extermination to ensure hell and its sinners could never rise against them. But Lilith's hope remained. And her dream was passed down to her precious daughter. The princess of hell."

The princess closed the book that read "The Story of Hell" gently.

"Don't worry Mom." she said gripping a key. "I'll make you proud."

Meet Charlotte Morningstar, or as she just said, the princess of hell. She's the daughter of Lucifer and Lilith, and probably the sweetest person you'll ever meet. She has a dream and a hotel, hoping to rehabilitate sinners up to their way to heaven.

"Charlie?" "Aah!" she jolted, turning around as the key disappeared. "Oh shit, did you hear all that?" she winced.

"Uh yeah. I was right there." Vaggie smirked.

And this is Vaggie, Charlie's best friend and girlfriend. She works as one of the staff here at the hotel, and can be very kind...when she wants to. She has a bit of a fiery temper so I would be careful.

"Sorry. I get pretty worked up after an extermination happens." Fire and shouts were heard from the background. Distant gunfire and sirens were heard too.

She looked down at the book with a forlorn look. "This story helps."

Vaggie chuckled. "I know. Don't worry. I enjoy your theatrics."

"Are you okay?"

"I'm fine just—thinking ya know about family stuff."

"Did you hear from your mom yet?"

Charlie shook her head. 

"Oof," Vaggie breathed out, "How long has it been now?"

"Not that long, only...seven...years. But off doing something important I'm sure."

"But this kingdom was something she really cared about." she walked over to the window and gestured her arms wide with a smile.

"Something I care about."

"Well, at least you aren't alone." Vaggie embraced her girlfriend with a smile.

"I just hope what I'm trying to do here will work."

"It will. I have faith in you." Keekee jumped into Charlie's lap comfortably. 

"All right, come on," Vaggie stood up and grinned, "Alastor says he has something to show us."
