You think your life is perfect. You are rich, powerful and popular. You are the heart beating and skipping beats inside the chests of the opposite sex and the fear burning the insides of your foes. Granted you don’t have any close friends but that’s only because you don’t need close friends – well except for that one weird person who is bound to your heels like oxygen is to air – 24/7! But other than that you’re mighty fine just the way you are. There is nothing in
the world that you cannot have that you must want.
And then that one wierd friend ducks up your life.
He reduces you from a god to a mere mortal. He plots behind your back, finds the one entity you should run away from like your life depended on it – and it does – and throws it at you! Then, he tries to justify the act by swearing upon dear life and universe how well-meaning his
vile act was.
The nerve of that imp! Wouldn't you say?
“Phromaz, if you please. Imps can’t nearly do half the things I can!” he replies, wrinkling his nose at the insult.
Truth to tell, I agree. And so would you once you got to know him. And yes, odd as it may sound, you’d forgive him too and love him for all that he did. Because my darlings – if you were enjoying the high profile life of a Demon King, you’d be beyond lucky to have a friend like
Azure.
Azure is Demon’s Noble Minister. His right hand man. It is Azure who knows what Demon needs and how to provide for it. Just like any good friend – or nanny – he also knows that a spoonful of sugar makes the medicine go down. And that’s exactly what he does.
Azure is a man of his word but he excels at the game of sneaky at the same time. He has the powers to help him with that too as you will soon find out written between the pages of Aoife and Demon: Cursed be the Syhlain! For now, I’ll just like to share a song that reminds me of Azure every time I listen to it.
You should listen carefully too – there may be clues in there as to what he looks like ;)
