"The endless Void, The gazing abyss, The bottomless ocean of horror...It coiled itself around your tender heart"

dappling light casts against a shadow so deep and consuming that its absorbed across it like the huge silhouette is a footprint in the world - an absence where the eye can't seem to find an edge - and only broken where the sudden livid red cracks, splinters and shatters its way across half a slumbering face - etched in a perpetual grin-snarl of dread-fear with a perpetual staring iris that burns and never closes.

the scar is an aberration against a perfect dark - one that seldom lies still enough to catch sleep, afear to wake others with what might come crawling from the realms of dream, vision and memory - he does not fear facing his own demons, but he fears the others facing them, for all and sundry does a god poisoned by half a lineage hold its reigns firmly in his grasp - he will know no peace unless half his ancestry no longer dances along his thoughts.

rare is the peace he knows - and as Lucifer lies in a half slumber, his attention is pinned to this small family he has.

he's thankful for them - all of them, these four here and those still out there - thankful for these rare respites and time granted with them, where all he worries after is making sure they're well fed and aren't causing too much trouble.

its a far cry from having to choose who lives and who dies in swaths on the many endless battlefields this weary deity has presided over - even if he misses those he knew from them, he does not miss the misery of endless war.

he hums quietly, watching Exodus and Deval shift around slightly in their pre-awaking thoughts, trying to stay below the veil of sleep or succumbing to simply huddling, too lethargic to leave such comforts - he can agree with the sentiment even as a fond smile tilts the half of his face not ravaged by the void.

he is content to linger in the now of peace, watching his adopted children cuddling together against him.
