The Devil asked them,
"Why are you here? With me? You gain nothing, you only lose. I don't offer anything, I am a darkness that swallows you as a whole.
A darkness that gnaws at your heart like fear,
A darkness that makes you feel insecure,
A darkness that hurts you, hunts you down.
then why?
Scram now!
Don't bother me with your presence," She said, and they left, some scoffed at the ungratefulness of the kindness they had bestowed her, the others were hurt, did not turn to see her again. Even once.

No one heard those unsaid words that rang in her burdenend head.
No one can ever hear them again.
For it is better for those words to be tears and disappear in to Styx rather than said allowed and destroy those she loved.
