Infernal twins sit idle, under the heavy burdens of boredom and exhaustion. A bevy of howls was offered by the younger of the two on this faithful evening, but the elder ignored the cries of ‘anguish’ with a quiet sigh━━The two of them have always been this way… . .. From the beginning, their teeth and claws raked against other hellspawn that threatened their existence. A sea of hellfire & brimstone surrounds them as a reminder of what failure might bring. Having worked hard for nearly a century, the eldest twin became THE best warrior Lucifer ever encountered.
As a mature, ferocious, and strong-willed demon, HE had found her to be his designated insider into the Satanic Clergy in the material world… Her only wish for the work is that her brother joins her ( without his knowledge, of course )…After all, she was painfully aware of what fate would await him if she had abandoned him. The transition was VERY difficult━━First being the dramatic temperature shift, followed by dictations of 'manners’ the two of them were oblivious to due to their origin. After a month of indoctrination, they received their specialized masks to obscure their infernal heritage so that they may blend in with the rest of the clergy members in the abbey.
Storm finds herself lingering in the ill hours of the night in the kitchen so that she might fetch two glasses of piping hot unsweetened tea ( a ferocious blend of chai and nectarine spices ) for herself and her brother… On the way back to her chamber, she passes the Cardinal in the hall who requests she and her brother visit him that evening. Despite being welcoming, she is uneasy about the meeting as a whole. Nevertheless, she accepts the invitation. It is what Satan would expect from her, after all.
Lightning receives strict instructions regarding the evening as they prepare for their meeting from his elder sister, and while he didn’t see the BIG deal over the meeting, he agreed to trust her instinct (…It hadn’t led them astray yet anyway, and if she was wrong she’d pick up his chores for a month to make up for it. ) Each of the infernal twins donned a specialized caftan patterned with holographic decals depicting all manner of satanic imagery, a crucifix hanging from the neck as the centerpiece, and as usual, Lightning wore gold, Storm a steel-blue chrome ( Who had easily stood out among the other chrome wearing Ghoulettes. ). Beneath their caftan, they wear black bodysuits & balaclavas to obscure any of their defining features.
The pair had exited their room, arms linked together as they made their way through the abbey to the designated meeting space, and when they arrive Storm already feels something brewing in her stomach, her brows scrunching as she and her brother bow to the Cardinal, ❝…Thank you for such a generous invitation. My brother and I are gracious for such…‘intimacy’…I imagine whatever you have planned is most fruitful, I’m sure. ❞ Storm speaks for them, her brother at her side, their hands still linked together, though Lightning is quick to nod—the notion is met with a sharp side-leer before she glances back to the Cardinal, her arm pulling from his as she takes the lead into the room.
Nostrils flare beneath the chrome cowl at the strong smells of the incense as she takes in her surroundings, turning once Copia had spoken again. ❝ We would be glad to answer any questions you may have. Isn’t that correct, Lightning ? ❞ A meandering glance with the roll of her neck, which is only met by another nod, this one a bit unsure as he slowly follows his sister into the dark chamber.
❝━━What plagues your mind, Cardinal ? ❞
