[WP] You're a demon working on commission. Collecting souls. The older demons spend years chipping away at targets, tempting them... but you're more efficient about making quota, last week you ran an atheist bakesale swapping cookies for souls... but that's nothing compared to your latest plan.	16
[WP] Men tremble at the mere thought of the Great Old Ones abode in the hidden and fathomless worlds, but those beings fear things even more strange and monstrous... but it turns out the universe is less a pyramid of power and more like rock paper scissors....	16

[WP]"It turns out the real demonic bond was the friends we made along the way."	11

[WP] 10,000 years ago the Eternal Empress gained immortality, leeching the youth from sacrifices. She passed on the ability to her children... who passed it to their children... now the immortals have out-competed everyone else and they don't intend to go back to mortality.	9
[WP] In the land of the fey true names have power. What then of the nameless? The souls of children forbidden from consecrated ground and so buried under blank headstones in ancient fairy forts.	8
