1. The Devils Converse
Eternity.
We grew tired of it.
Time is endlessly.
That is why we need distraction.
We need some sort of… Flavour.
Souls.
An easy calculation:
The more pain, the more experience in infancy, the more self-confidence in spite of that… The more they taste better.
Yes… Then they will be the ultimate taste experience.
We must be patient. How beneficial, that we have all the time in the world!
There are humans, who are so 'punished' in their life, that we just have to wait, until their souls seasoned.
We fatten the others. Like cattle. You humans are…
Cattle for us.
You always think that you stand above everyone in the food chain.
But that is wrong.
We, the devils, are above you. Like you fatten your cattle, we fatten you.
You are born and then you are weak. So weak. So… Fragile.
In your cattle you just plug in the food.
But we must be more careful with our cattle, otherwise it will break.
Otherwise this little precious soul in your body will break.
That would be fretful.
Annoying is also, that we have a lot of time, but you don't. No, you don't.
Do you see, how difficult it is, to provide this certain flavor in our monotonous existence?
We consistently have to weigh up the advantages and the disadvantages.
Does it really have sense to mess around with someone of you or would you and your soul be to boring?
We don't want boredom.
How good, that you humans are so entertaining. Yes, you entertain us.
Sometimes we intervene in certain details of your life, to make it more interesting. Interesting for us.
You use other humans for your entertainment too, use them even as marionettes. Why shouldn't we do this as well?
You are so easy to influence. Your emotions are easy to influence. Only some words, some gestures.
You are already sticking in our claws. The contract is already sealed.
And your souls are ours. Then we only have to make sure that they will taste good.
You are mere amusement.
And a meal.
