Liked it.
Nice to see a complete backstory for Ruby and seeing a possible answer for why she decided to sell her soul to a demon

Wow, this is the most compelling exploration of Ruby backstory that I've ever seen. I very much like your depiction of Lilith and Ruby's relationship with her; Lilith is terrifying, fanatical, supreme. Just in general, I like your depiction of hell, which rings true to what we saw in the series while at the same time being comprehensible. I also like how you make Ruby's fall into hell about knowledge, paralleling the Adam and Eve narrative.

Very, very cool indeed.
