Lucifer's lips tipped into the faintest of smiles at the wordless surrender and he waved his hand again, pulling back the images from what would have been an endless loop, had she not collapsed so pitifully at his feet. He smiled as he crouched down to her, lightly taking her face within his hands as he gazed down at the poor, despicable human. To him, she was nothing. And yet, at the same time, she represented all of the human race and he hated her for that.

"These things have happened, of course..." He whispered, brushing a strand of hair from her face before releasing it from his touch, still crouching in front of her.

And they will continue to happen, as long as there is evil in this world."

The smile stretched a bit more as he corrected himself softly. "As long as there are humans in this world, there will always be evil and violence and torment. And it's all at my fingertips. Shall we continue?"
