Re: Chapter 4: Of Crossroads and Witches
Kitty had to smile at that one.
"I doubt very much that father has ever liked any of the 'company' I kept; if anything, these folks are a huge step up in that department. As for lying, well, if you are in fact a demon then you need no reason to lie, other than to sow discord at the very least. I know my father has his black marks, all humans do, but I need more proof than the word of a creature from hell that my father would sell out his own flesh. There is ambition, and then there is insanity."
Her father had always been ambitious; even as a little girl she had seen that. But was he insane enough to make a deal with the devil, literally, even had he believed such things were possible? Doubt nagged at her, but what other proof was there? This creature might be a source of information, but how could she not consider that source tainted?
"I am sorry, but I have never heard of your so-called 'Queen of Hell', or this Hand of Baal organization either. But if you exist that I suppose I have to believe that they exist as well, although for all I know you could all be a bunch of liars and lunatics, fit only for prison, or Bedlam. What proof do you have of your words?"
