Gadriel, the fallen angel of petty temptations, has never agreed with the point system of Sin and Virtue that decides a human’s fate after they die. Why should eating chocolate cost you a ½ point of Sin? Despite this, she stays out of the way and tries not to catch the notice of other angelic beings – good or bad. When a gambling debt is called in and she is asked to tempt one inconsequential human into loosening up a little and earning some Sin points, she figures it will be a quick way to wipe out the debt – how difficult can it be to tempt one human? Turns out – very difficult, and this human is not as inconsequential as Gadriel thought. This amusing tale is delightfully humorous, showing the absurdity of what is considered right and wrong, but also delving into the depths of grief and the many emotions that come with it.
