You can't blame yourself for that, cudyll. Someone had to lead your people, and it sounds like Lucifer willingly took charge and was the only one who could do it. I'm sure he's grateful for the faith you had, and have, in him-- and that you recognized that he should be the one to help save you all. [Not that it sounds easy, of course. If anything, Beelzebub's made it sound akin to something a few steps above torture in the sense of what it means a ruler has to endure.]
I can understand you feeling this way about the pain he's gone through. [Galahad picks up a towel by the sink, and dries off his hands with it, his face thoughtful.] It sounds like you have a great deal of love and respect for him and what he's done for you all.
