heaven help him, at least abel is an earnest and well-meaning fledgling, albeit shockingly naive; never saw more of earth than a field, murdered before he ever learned what the world could really do to a soul between its sharp teeth - no wonder he thinks an infernal uprising can be soothed with taffy and soft toys, and hell be bribed into civility.

"I take it you never stepped foot in hell, until now."
