"This disease, this infection, comes from the Cocytus," Blake calmly replied. "Every major traitor in history is there: Cain, Judas…"
"Bill Gates," smirked Simon, finally starting to be able to breathe again.
"But Dante," Blake continued, "missed one section of the Cocytus, the oldest part, the area that Lucifer stood upon: the place reserved for traitors against nature. And it was the first to thaw when Lucifer left and…"

"Lilith," replied Blake. "Lilith was able to get free."
"Mythology is not my shtick," Angela sniped. "Is a little clarity too much to ask?"
Simon's eyes snapped open. _It all makes sense now_, he thought. _It was all worthwhile afterall._ "Lilith," he said. "The disease-bearing wind spirit, the mother of all monsters."
"Yea," Blake confirmed. "And she's here, now, causing major trouble. And we let her out of her cage."2008-02-14T16:15:47Zhttp://ficlets.com/feed/story/12631Comment on …Has Now Thawed.<p>And you get an extra star for insinuating that Bill Gates is in cohoots with the devil.</p>http://ficlets.com/stories/12631?basename=410002008-02-14T16:15:47ZAlexa ♥http://ficlets.com/authors/alexa1018Comment on …Has Now Thawed.<p>All the great characters in evil vs good history coming together in one great story!

And, I’d change it, but — alas — I had reached ficlet nirvana… I’d have to cut something out to correct the mistake. So, everyone, just correct that error in your head and pretend I changed it. :)</p>http://ficlets.com/stories/12631?basename=208902007-11-02T21:22:32ZNickhttp://ficlets.com/authors/white1975Comment on …Has Now Thawed.<p>In your third indentation, I think you meant “breathe” instead of “breath.” <br />And I think it’s just great that not only Lucifer gets to join in on the fun, but Lilith, too.

This solution as to what the infection is <em>literally</em> just came to me. And, since no one else seemed to want to tackle it, I popped it in with my super Puppet Master skills. Someone else’s turn to play with ‘em now, though.</p>http://ficlets.com/stories/12631?basename=208362007-11-02T14:15:08ZNickhttp://ficlets.com/authors/white1975
