Jenna and Fau stood in the forest with the old man, at the end of his life.The old man chose to give his last words of wisdom: “Never forget Love. Love will be the thing that gets you through the rough patches. Love is all you need.”Then, he slowly slumped in the chair he sat in.

Jenna and Fau, keeping their promise, took the old man’s body and gently put it in a hole in the ground, covered him up and put up a stone with the name he told them: Maek.
They left a small hole, and planted an acorn there, giving the promise of life.

They then went back to the house on the hill, starting to feel unreal.
They now had a home of their own.
“Well… I’m happy we could give that old man a good send-off.” Fau said.
Jenna smiled. “Yeah, so am i.”
The air was filled with sadness for Maek’s Death.
They went inside, and Jenna started a fire in the fireplace, and they just cuddled there, with the death of this man heavy on their minds, but still warm in each others embrace.

“So… what now?” Fau asks.
Jenna pondered that thought for a second, before coming to the conclusion: “well, let’s ask Dori to put those spells on the house, like she said.”
“Okay” Fau said as he stood up, lifting Jenna with him, before setting her down.

Jenna and Fau took a long walk to the tree Dori lived under, enjoying the green grass, the luscious trees and the beautifully singing birds before knocking on the trapdoor to Dori’s home.
Dori sat in her living-room, just having come back from a Shakespeare play, Hamlet.
She was deeply in a conversation with Theo about it, having seen it for the first time too.
“Yeah, revenge may be good, but taking a life is so much harder than it seems.” Theo says.
“How would you know?” Dori asked.
“Well-” Theo tried, but was interrupted by a knock on the trapdoor.
“Hold up, Theo, I’ll get that for a second.” Dori opened the trapdoor to see Jenna and Fau stand on the ground.
“Hey, Dori, we got the house” Jenna said, “Could you use those protection spells you talked about?”
“Really? Congrats! How is good ol’ Maek doing?” Dori asked
Jenna’s smile faltered at the mention of the old man.
“Oh no, he’s not…” Dori said, not wanting to finish the sentence.
“Yes” Fau said, “And we could have the house if we granted him his final wish.”
Jenna continued, “Burying him together with a nut, so that a tree could grow on his grave.”
Dori was shocked, but she knew Maek could be poetic like that.
“Wow… he always felt so permanent” Dori said, a sad tone in her voice, “but i guess life isn’t as permanent as it seems.”
“Well, let’s go then, we don’t want anyone finding you.” Dori smiled melancholy.

While setting up the spells, Dori saw a person, hiding around the house.
“Hey, who are you?”
The person looked up, then ran behind the house.
“HEY!” Dori yelled as she ran towards this person, and when she got behind the house, the only thing left was a note, which simply said:

“Do not mess with the devilish lovers”
Hell
After coming back to Hell, Greed saw Alec, the detective she had found.
He had fallen onto Hell by accident, but she wondered what to do now.
Then it hit her.
Maybe he could help her Tom, the guy she had to watch for the Devil.
Alec sat in the living-room of Greed’s home.it was not what you’d expect from a house in Hell.
Yes, there was a lot of red, but in a cozy way.
“Hey Greed,” Alec said, thinking to himself: calling her greed still feels weird, “What’re you up to?”
Greed said: “I found something to do for you. But you must promise me not to tell anyone I’m one of the sins, okay? Since i will be changing my appearance.”
Alec understood the weight of the situation: “Uh, of course. What should i call you then?”Greed waved the question away, “Don’t worry about that yet, we’ll be leaving in the evening, okay? Around 7 PM”
Alec nodded.
“See you tonight, Alec.” Greed said, walking away, on her way to her daily duties.
