hell-realm

The blue of winter, the brown of spring, the red of summer, and the fall of green. I seek the place of treasures past. I seek the truth of sand and glass. I call to the wind of seasons past. I bring with me the best of summer. I am the one with whom you bask. Deliver me and complete your task.

You have your orders,_ Mab shouted at the guards. __o the Deeps with her._ The men led me from the great hall, taking me along a series of corridors to the back of the castle, then winding through another long corridor and into a spiraling stairwell that appeared to have no end. We went further and further down until finally it ended so deep in the ground it felt like a grave. My pulse quickened as we reached the bottom. A single dark door lay ahead.

What exactly did you expect me to do? I told The Boss what you said, but he__ not going to budge. Nobody gets dental.

I grouped my fellow employees into three categories: the plebes, the damned, and the demons.

I__ like to say it could have been worse. I__ sure lots of people hate their job, or their boss, or the people they work with. I just couldn__ relate to those people. They have options. They can quit their job, move out of town, or drop off the grid. The only option I had was a guaranteed one-way ticket to Hell when I died, and that didn__ include dental.
