“Where do we go when we die?”
The sweet and kind voice echoed through the night. Lilith glanced to her second elder brother, who was looking at her with surprise. “Whatcha talkin’ ‘bout, Lils?” “I’ve always wondered where do angels and demons go when they die… I mean, I know humans will either turn to angels or demons when they die, or just lost spirits roaming around… But what about us? What will happen? Will we just… cease to exist?” Eyes wide with childlike curiosity as she wonders, Mammon could only smile softly at her. “Well, truth is, I don’t really know. But Michael once told me we’ll either join the stars, or enter the after realm. Or maybe, if yer lucky, ya can get reincarnated as a human! Ain’t that cool?”
Lilith giggled as she glanced back to the sky, “Yeah, it is…” Mammon grinned, but it faltered at the thought of the previous question. “Why’re ya askin’ that all of a sudden, tho?” She shrugged, “dunno. Guess I was just curious.” Still confused, Mammon didn’t want to push it further, simply nodded his head and went back to stargazing with his sister.

“Hm?”
“If anythin’ ever happens to one of us, can we promise each other to take care of our family?”
“Of course. That’s what families are for, right?”
“Yeah... Thanks, bro. Yer the best”
“Anythin’ for ya, lil sis”
