Oh lmao souls huh

shit doesn't matter once ur in hell

[your_best_friend]

[There's a noticeable delay before a response.]

You live in hell? Like ACTUALLY hell?

[helluvaboss]

born and raised B A B Y

[your_best_friend]

Gosh, I know someone from hell! Loremaster. You know her? I didn't get much time to talk with her before she was taken out of the picture back in Kansai. And when we all rescued everyone, we were all ready to go home.

Tell me everything about hell! What sort of puzzles are there?

[helluvaboss]

eh you can find some escape rooms and puzzlemaster weirdos in Pride ring sometimes

idk who you mean by loremaster like r u talking about some big name demon or a fallen angel or what

[your_best_friend]

Okay, I never asked what her species was, but she looked mostly human and had robotic hands. Very skilled in technology. If it helps, she knows a Lucifer.

[Flowey will go ahead and do a simple black and white sketch of what Loremaster looks like.]

[helluvaboss]

Ooh shes cute. didn't know Lucifer had a side bitch. Lilith is still way hotter

[your_best_friend]

[Flowey rolls his eyes at the b-word. Come on, demon, can't you be more eloquent?]

Are you sure you don't know of her? She specifically used the words "my domain". If anything, she made it sound like Lucifer worked for HER.

[helluvaboss]

LMAO

UR SRS??

[your_best_friend]

Okay, since you're acting this way, I'm gonna say there's different timelines for different hells. A little disappointing, but that doesn't mean your hell still can't be interesting!

Either that, or you've decided to make your home be under a rock.

[helluvaboss]

ehh current apartment is in pride ring but its not the worst, Sinners are kinda interesting and make good clients. even if rent is fucking expensive bc Sinners are all over the damn place the pay is good enough to keep the office open and super fuckin stocked

Greed sucks shit but Lust ring and Wrath ring rule

Hell's got lotsa layers and I haven't been to all of them but shit serves its purpose to organize stuff for bigwig demon royalty and whatever war-on-heaven bullshit they deal with. Pride ring gets the angels visiting once a year to purge a shit ton of sinners but imps like me can just slide down a level and wait it out.

[your_best_friend]

[Swears. More swears. Ugh. Edgy tryhard wannabee. But if this imp is so obsessed with this image, then fine. Flowey won't call him pathetic. For now. He has info to gather and it's new and interesting!]

So you're at war with heaven? Us monsters didn't really have or follow any sort of religion, but we did have a good number of prophecies.

Like the one with the Angel, aka the one that had seen the surface. It said that when the angel returns, the Underground will go empty.

It came true. I made sure of it.

[helluvaboss]

oooo spicy, did you do a killing spree? nothin like a gorefest but I gotta admit I'd get bored after a hundo or so

[your_best_friend]

That was one interpretation of the prophecy. The other was that the angel would break the barrier keeping everyone trapped in Mt. Ebott and allow them all to travel to the surface.

But yes, I had gone on a complete killing spree of all the monsters multiple times before going back to an earlier SAVE point. And yes, it did get boring after having done everything I could have done in the Underground.

And I mean everything.

[helluvaboss]

the fuck do u mean save file

[your_best_friend]

Okay, so I had been injected with a lot of determination. So much so, that I can basically set different points in time to travel back to. Somewhere along the way of my existence, I

[Hmm, how best to describe this...?]

I had been SAVING and LOADING and RESETTING for so long, that I managed to memorize entire people. And I mean what they say, how they'd act. I started treating everything as a video game. I started seeing everyone else as just NPCs. They might as well have been given that I could predict and dictate how I wanted my runs to go down to the most miniscule detail.

And as I've said before, I eventually grew bored of doing that, so I had decided to become a passive observer to everything. That was before events happened that allowed me to break the magic barrier and free everyone.

[helluvaboss]

[That..... sounds exactly like a video game, and extremely suspicious?? Weird.]

but y did you put so much stock in some prophecy

like how did you know it was even maybe right

[your_best_friend]

Because at the time, I had the power to make it come true. I was the "angel" from the prophecy.

[helluvaboss]

howd u kno?

[your_best_friend]

I think I realized it in between breaking the barrier and getting kidnapped, but I DID see the surface before breaking the barrier. Before even dying for the first time.

I did mention I died, right?

[helluvaboss]

But howd u kno the prophecy was even true in the first place

whered it come from

what if u seeing the surface didnt have anything to do with it

[your_best_friend]

[...Really? This demon can't connect the dots?]

The prophecy became true because I made it come true. I broke the barrier and the underground became empty once all the monsters moved to the surface.

See, this is why you need more puzzles in your life. It keeps your brain sharp. I own a puzzle shop, why not come over?

[helluvaboss]

no but I mean wheres it even from? u dont think you'd try going to the surface without someone saying its a thing that happens?

[your_best_friend]

The only way going through the barrier was possible was if you had a monster SOUL and a human SOUL inside your body at the same time. And the only way to break the barrier was to have the power of seven human SOULs in you, or its equivalence.

But if you're so interested in the lore...

[Flowey goes on to write information about the monster that made the prophecy, when they made it, where they made it, and how many others felt about the prophecy, listing each individual by name.]

[helluvaboss]

tl;dr

if u come to hell w/ that attitude ur gonna turn into a grand demon's stooge
