“So, you’re the devil, Lucifer, the morning star,” I stated. I don’t know how much time passed, but Venus was gone, and Lark just stood there next to me.

“I’m Lark Cottonclove, and I should have been the Satyr Prince. I can’t help the stories humans told thousands of years ago, or continue to tell themselves today. Honestly, I didn’t even think it was a thing at the time, but then, the Church sprang up around the carpenter boy, and grew like a weed until it had barbs in everything,” he shook his head over a missed opportunity.

“You were the snake in the garden that tempted Adam?” I tried to remember my Sunday school lessons.

“No,” the Fae’s face brightened. “If anything, I was Adam in that scenario,” he stated. “I was new to the “garden” aka the mortal realm, and sent by “God” aka Queen Maeve. The serpent is definitely Venus, who also might be Eve, but none of this stuff with a tree and forbidden fruit ever actually happened. It’s all a cautionary tale,” he shook his head. “The only think I chowed down on was Venus’s pussy; so, if that’s the fruit from the tree of knowledge people are talking about; then it was quite educational.”

“Okay, enough,” my head felt like it was about to explode. “Is anything even real,” I muttered to myself.

“Some of it,” Lark replied, “but probably not as much as you want,” he shrugged. “History is written by the victors, then us Fae went through it with a fine-tooth comb, and worked it to our advantage. We’ve been fucking with your civilization for millennia; influencing your culture, weakening your magic, and a lot of other things for our own amusement,” he shrugged like it was no big deal.

“I’m exhibit A,” he looked a little sad about that. “I fell in love with this place, and what do the Fae do . . . they turn me into the devil, and tell all humans I’m the Father of Lies. It’s genius; getting an entire population of billions to turn against someone who’s trying to help them, but that’s what Maeve does.”

A small smile turned up the Fae’s lips, and I noticed he did that whenever he talked about this Maeve. Whoever she was, she still held the respect of someone she’d royally fucked in the ass. That was some awesome power.

“I’m going to tell you something you probably already know deep down in your gut, but this will drive it home. Humans are kind of the running joke of the realms, no offense.”

I took a ton of offense to what he said, but that didn’t stop him.

“You’re a really young species, and your grasp on magic is rudimentary for ninety-nine-point-nine-nine-nine percent of your mages. Ever since you climbed down from the trees, and started walking on two legs, one superior race or another has been yanking your chain. You’re weak, easily manipulated, and very short lived. Everyone looks down on you.”

“Well, fuck you too,” I shot back, but all that got out of him was a laugh.
