"…You guys okay?"
Temmy's voice cut through the quiet again.
Ruka's knuckles popped as his fist tightened. His eyes stayed fixed on the stones beneath his feet.
"Yeah…" he muttered. "So… who is she?"
Temmy scratched the back of her head and exhaled through her nose.
"I only got a name." She shrugged, but her eyes were sharp now. "Greta wasn't exactly in the mood for a full history lesson. After Remu got dragged out like that, she was pissed. But… before she left, she sent me a message. A mental one."
Ruka looked up slowly.
Lucifer didn't move. He was just standing there, arms at his side, gaze far off.
"She said one word," Temmy continued, her voice a little lower now. "Lilith."
She paused, letting it hang there.
"Lilith—the first demon."
Lucifer's eyes didn't widen. His body didn't twitch. But something about the air around him changed.
He turned.
Said nothing.
And walked.
