Not all gods were enemy of the Devil. Nimue, the bride of a monstrosity, creates her very own handmaiden in the shape of a void angel and keeps her name: Carolena. Petre comes upon the angel and they develop a parody of a friendship. He thinks himself all-powerful, knowing he will leave no legacy behind, so she, with the ability to manipulate anything organic to her most capricious whim, takes a challenge upon herself. She steals three pieces of the demon inside him and creates three demons of her own, planting them in different parts of the world to see how they will fare.
It starts with a girl in Romania, who worships the god Baldr until the day she doesn't. Tthe girl dies, and a demon comes to life in her place. It's fun and games until she meets the not-saint and inevitably the demon shoves him onto a bed and they fuck. She's sterile, so whatever; the consequences of sex with a male have never been an issue. Except he's the almost-saint of some fertility goddess and, well. Twins run in his family. The Devil is equal parts laughing and fucking pissed off that the number two minion could make such a horrifying mistake, so she demotes her from every demon perk while keeping the same hunger, and orders the Messiah to consider her as good as dead. Petra comes crawling back to Santiago and is taken in by his cult. Finally, Hell on Earth.
The witches of the mountain have proliferated, and they have also been crucified down to a stub. The depths of their bloodline always in flux as their greed leads them over and over again to ruin. When their name had been Reynolds, Momma had reached too far beyond her means and the harpy had torn out her haruspex and left only Baby behind. With the new name Morrison they have burgeoned once more, children and grandchildren and children beyond that. With the new name of Morrison they have a new aspiring Mother who manipulates the darkness like a goddess, who control her malevolent clan with a sharp, wolfish smile. Adina has grand plans, and the demon she captures seems to be merely nothing more than a jewel in her crown. Until she reaches too far beyond her means, until she has the audacity to let demon seed stew in her body. He is her second son, and he is her most charming prince, and from his very existence he sparks jealousy and hatred among the family. First they bicker with one another, and then in unison they turn against him. And then, when he is old enough, he destroys them all.
