Greed started off as Charity; giving generously to mankind for all to benefit in reaching into the hearts of humans generating the urge to give to those in need. When he rules all had enough and none craved money nor power. Until one day the devil came with a deal. “You give them everything, but you still live below them all; I wonder why that is.” The serpent said. “I’m not below them, they see me as there equal. Who are you anyway? Why are you even here?” Charity said back.”I’m the one that can set you free; that is if you take my deal.”586Please respect copyright.PENANARG5M4bBCUt
“Free from what?” Charity said.586Please respect copyright.PENANAUwJxQe8997
“From the chains that keep you a slave of course. You reach into those humans and bring them the light. You give to the world all that is possible but yet the humans do not thank you, they do not worship you. They treat you like a slave, used to conjure all of their desires while continuing without compensation. When you and I both know you could be so much more. You could rule over kings and gods alike. You will be worshiped by all. You could rule the world; all you have to do is join me.” Charity was intrigued by the idea. She always gave the humans everything they asked for but yet none of them give concern for any of her needs. But that can all change.586Please respect copyright.PENANAqtbkMRxjeS
“At what price I don’t have any money.”586Please respect copyright.PENANAb3ddjyQHys
“I don’t want your money, I just want your loyalty... Do we have a deal?”586Please respect copyright.PENANA51Fvxki9u8
“Yes.”586Please respect copyright.PENANAXxatI53P7k
Instantly Charity’s golden skin became as smooth as melted gold. Her eyes turned into red rubies and her nails and teeth into sharp diamond. Her brown hair into strands of silver. The serpent climbed on top of her shoulder and crowned her with horns. Charity turned into greed, a demon of wealth and riches. She climbed her way on top of society creating a pyramid of cash flow casting herself as the source. She suddenly controlled the world’s money and reached into the hearts of all humans and tore a piece off; so that all of them would hunger for wealth to fill the hole that greed created in each of them. Even the mightiest king would bend the knee and worship at her feet. She ruled among all the world and conquered the heart of mankind. 586Please respect copyright.PENANAAtqDZKBElG
