Mephisto considered answering the question with a lie, for once, but resigned and sighed a little. "Ash is not an angel. She is a being not made by the Creator. There were beings in this world before God came and laid claim to it, even humans. Humans were created by many gods over time, including our Creator's Adam and Eve, all around the same time. It was, and is, extremely complicated, but Ash got mixed up in with us, and was sent to Hell for... heaven knows what. She's a good being, despite that." He pushed his hair back over his shoulders and sat up as best he could. "I see no harm in you meeting a being older than myself, for once."
