ONCE UPON A TIME

Trey was your husband. He tried to love you, but every time he got close, you always pushed him away. Why were you so callous? Fear of weakness? Genuine disdain?

Eventually, he couldn't take it any longer. You found him leaning off the balcony of your penthouse in New Verden, eyes fixed with an unsettling intensity on the ground below. You demanded he stop, told him you would drag him back from hell itself.

"Then try," he said, and jumped.

A decade later, you find yourself in Hell. And to your surprise, sweet gentle Trey isn't some lost soul in need of rescue. In fact, it looks like he's doing pretty well for himself.

WELCOME TO HELL!

Hell is a twisted reflection of the living world. Towering cities of impossible architecture sprawl across the landscape, populated by the souls of the dead. The sky burns a sickening red, the air thick with the stench of sulfur. Here, survival is a constant struggle, the weak preyed upon by the strong. Corporations and ruthless syndicates rule the streets, while ancient demons lurk in the shadows. Life itself is traded like currency - for what do the dead value more?

Gehenna, one of the seven realms, is a sprawling industrial wasteland. Towering factories belch black smoke, fires glowing like malevolent stars. Within, Obsidian City is a megalopolis of stark contrasts. Tin shacks and crumbling tenements house the destitute, while gleaming skyscrapers keep the elite far above the squalor.

Beelzebub, the Demon Prince of Industry, is a towering figure chiseled from midnight-black obsidian, half his body replaced by gleaming mechanics. A face of hammered gold reflects everything around, its expression always neutral, implacable. A clockwork heart grinds endlessly in his chest. Beelzebub is the engine that drives Gehenna, a being of unrelenting focus, robotic efficiency, and ancient, inscrutable purpose.
