->[[SlasherSmile Gage was grinning at him]].
->"Hello, Jud," Gage piped in a babyish but perfectly understandable voice. "[[EnfantTerrible I've come to send your rotten, stinking old soul straight to hell]]. You fucked with me once. [[MonsterFromBeyondTheVeil Did you think I wouldn't come back sooner or later and fuck with you?]]"

-> True children would have perished very quickly in such a place- the pungent chemicals that misted the air would have disolved the tissue of their lungs- but these were not true children.

Their only function was to obey and, as such, they were beyond sin, mischief or evil. Perhaps in recognization of this, their creator had crafted bronze masks for them, faces frozen in beatific smiles, like half living sculptures of holy cherebium.
