Rusted Crown (Tue, June 18)

"You wonder through the ruins of once a mighty city. There you see a man grinning at you, wearing a rusted crown."

"Finally, you have returned." The man spoke as he removed his crown. I stood there, bag full of things I was either going to give to my parents to sell or just sell myself. "Excuse me, but what?" I ask, not liking this guy just saying I returned. I was here yesterday! "If you follow me- Wait. Where are you going?" I was already a quarter of the way back to the entrance, already saying the "nope" meme in my head.

That's when a cloud of smoke appeared. I could hear rushed footsteps as I fell onto my bottom. I coughed as a figure formed. "Sorry miss." I perked as the bottom of of a walking stick appeared in front of me. "Get away from her, you demon!" I hear the man from earlier say. "Will you calm down, old man? I'm just helping the little lady up. I did knock this flower over, didn't I?" The figure said as I gripped the walking stick.

The figure only needed a small pull before I was on my feet. He respectfully dusted me off before I notice this man... had strange markings on his face.

"Please. Call me Lucifer."
