I have to completely agree with this! Lucifer was a fallen angel, it would be inappropriate to portray him as a 2D character. I feel like deeply understanding his backstory/history in the way that Val does would enable greater understanding comprehension of his 'evilness'evraealtana wrote: ↑03 Aug 2019, 08:54 Odd as it sounds, my favorite character in these retellings is actually Lucifer. I love the way the author gave him wants, needs, and dreams of his own, rather than painting him as "evil for evil's sake", as many portrayals of him do. I think stories are always richer when the antagonist is "human", too.
That being said - not being a religious person myself, I look at the work from a literary/storytelling angle, rather than an inspirational/belief-affirming one. Perhaps someone with a different perspective would look more at the messages rather than the delivery.

That being said, the grass to grace life story of Joseph is extraordinary. It is inspiring and very rich in terms of lessons to be learnt.
