Cubi were a prison of their own for all the souls they consumed in their immortal lives, Lada wasn’t the first that he’d encountered, but her kind were a dying breed. Little by little, they each were being snuffed out, and with no means to be replaced their interference in a natural order would be put to an end. She was a cage of monsters and men, and even now sat across from one another he could hear them screaming to be released. Hotaru had watched the world evolve decade to decade, but this was the longest the Oni had ever been outside of Hell. “Do you still feel them inside of you?” Hotaru asked, “Or are their souls just - air, food, water. Consumption you forget about.”
