Music is a very powerful force. It can be used to lift others spirits or to be used to drag them down. The sounds of all the instruments and the way the acoustic mix is such a beautiful and powerful thing. So when I saw her singing on the news about...
This begins with a story about how the universe and all things were created by the angels that lie in the shining and golden city known as Heaven.
Charlie: Once upon a time, there was a glowing city protected by golden gates, known as Heaven. It was ruled by beings of pure light. Angels that worshiped good and shielded all from evil. Lucifer was one of these angels. He was a dreamer with fantastical ideas for all of creation. But he was seen as a troublemaker by the elders of Heaven.
It then shows the silhouette of Charlie's father, Lucifer, the original fallen angel, with fireworks going off behind him. However this caught the attention of the elders and they cut him off.
Charlie: For they thought his way of thinking was dangerous to the order of their world. So he watched as the angels began to expand the universe in their ways. From the dust of Earth, they created Adam and Lilith.
The angels then create and place the first man and woman on earth, Adam and Eve.
Charlie: Equals as the first of mankind, but despite this, Adam demanded control, and Lilith refused to submit to his will. She fled the Garden. Drawn in by her fierce independence, Lucifer found her and the two rebellious dreamers fell deeply in love.
It shows Lilith rejecting Adam and running away from the garden. Lucifer flys down and offers his hand, starting their romance.
Charlie: Together, they wished to share the magic of free will with humanity, offering the Fruit of Knowledge to Adam's new bride, Eve, who gladly accepted. But this gift came with a curse. For with this single act of disobedience, evil finally found its way into the Earth. With it, a new realm of darkness and sin.
Lucifer and Lilith make their way to Eve, offering the apple from the tree of knowledge to bring free will to humanity. However this single action caused a creak in the earth, allowing darkness to flow through.
Charlie: And the order Heaven worked to maintain was shattered. As punishment for their reckless act, Heaven cast Lucifer and his love into the dark pit he had created, never allowing him to see the good that came from humanity, only the cruel and the wicked.
The angels blame the two lovers for this darkness and banished them from Heaven and Earth, sending them into the darkness they created, Hell.
Charlie: Ashamed, Lucifer lost his will to dream. But Lilith thrived, empowering demonkind with her voice and her songs. And as the numbers of Hell grew, so did its power. Threatened by this, Heaven made a truly heartless decision. That every year, they would send down an army, an Extermination, to ensure Hell and its sinnerscould never rise against them. But Lilith's hope remained. And her dream was passed down to their precious daughter, the Princess of Hell.
Lucifer, disheartened walks away from the light, but Lilith thrived. She used her power to encourage her new kingdom and bring the people together. This action caused Heaven to send down angels known as exterminators once a year to kill as many demons as possible. Charlie finishes telling the story of hell and closes the book while looking out at the chaos that just ensued.
Charlie: Don't worry mom, I'll make you proud.
