Ah-ha!
My head pushed through the last handful of soggy dirt. Fresh night air, scented with rotting leaves and freedom!
Awesome!
My name was Nosubera, a winner at demon life. Another day of life... no, demon life, had begun!
I scrambled out of the luxurious private suite of a dirt pit I'd dug for myself, shook the clods and bugs off my head, and looked up. The moon hid behind thin clouds. Perfect weather for eating people!
Wings? Oh, right, wings! I wasn't like those low-grade losers who could only crawl around on the ground. These little wings bestowed by that great lord were the guarantee of my happy demon life!
Flying was fantastic! No walking, a great view while hunting at night, and I could scare those ignorant two-legged beasts-say, by suddenly going "pfft" over their heads.

Whether someone delivered themselves to my door tonight didn't matter. If I got lucky and found some lost old herb gatherer or a young hunter sneaking out for game, that meant an extra meal to improve my standard of living. If my luck was average, a few rabbits or... uh, some earthworms dug out of the dirt would fill my stomach just fine!
Thinking about my life now, I practically wanted to kowtow a few times to that great lord, if he would accept it.
