In exchange, she got a chance to follow the trail of an old enemy.
"Sugar and spice and everything nice?" Perhaps the standard, off-the-shelf girl may be made from such things, but this half-demon girl?
She isn't sweet, she isn't nice and you really shouldn't call her spicy, because she's got a magic hat full of weapons, a bad attitude and a mischievous sense of humor.

Eight years ago, a woman named Laurene asked writer Richard Kelly Kemick to finish her late husband's novel, a book he had planned to finish upon retirement from his career as a surveyor, but never got the chance. Out of embarrassment and naivety, Kemick accepted. "The hard part was already over —the labour of birthing an idea — and all I had to do was towel it off and spank a bit of life into it," he writes for The Walrus.
Here's more on his efforts to finish a dead man's novel and what he learned along the way. "The briefcase novel has taught me nothing about writing; it hasn’t taught me how to sculpt a sentence, how to develop character, not even how to craft a sex scene (from the notebook titled “Personalities”: “They made love, and she died.”). But the briefcase novel, and the surveyor who made it, has taught me everything about being a writer," he concludes.
Levi mourns the recent loss of his parents, but old enemies of his father refuse to give him the time to grieve.

Born of human heart and mind,
The Gods thought man blind:
Science stole man’s heart,
Forcing Gods to depart.
A refuge built, a new home made,

The Four Horsemen rise,
For man’s action wasn’t wise!
The Gods may be forgotten,
But a war has man begotten!
