A short story , in some ways reminiscent of Sandman, wherein the chief protagonist is someone who is only a minor character in the overall series, the *hero* only plays a bit part(but what a part) and the story has the threads that will be tied later.
And taken by itself still an amazing read
The story is of a priestess cursed to live forever a day in her life where she had suffered a miscarriage by some gods who deemed it as punishment for losing her virginity and refusing their offer of death because of the child she carries. The woman yearns for release and meets Lucifer who appears to advise her of her way forward.
Lucifer is of course only interested in her so as to further his interests and he does come out of it with the better bargain as always.
