Double or Nothing?

How I Beat the Devil at His Own Game

The setting, the 9th Circle of Hell
The odds, a million to one,
The stakes, eternal bliss or eternal suffering,
The wager, a double or nothing bet,
That’s what I faced not long ago.

Hi, D here,

I was in Hell, literally! After "touring" that grim landscape looking for my lost love MG who was sent there by accident and I to retrieve him. Oh, the places and people I met!

Vampires and ghouls,
Demons and fools,
The grieving, the fearful, the wicked and cruel,

Then there was my guide, suave, good-looking, a smooth talker, and a LIAR, in capital letters!

I found my guy but had to worm my way out in a double-or-nothing wager. Me, the Devil, and a card trick!
