What about the werewolves in the story? Is the story about the age-old rivalry between vampires and werewolves, it's been played off a lot but i'd love to see your take on it :)
Ok first of I have to tell you - thank you so much for asking me about LST I’m always very excited to talk about it :D and it actually helps me connect things in my story! So THANK YOU
I don’t think I have it as the age-old rivalry it’s more something that developed over time. Lucifer’s Saint Trinity is a trinity of generals appointed by yours truly Lucifer :D one of them is the original vampire (Failon), one of them the original werewolf (Samael - I made Lucifer and Samael separate entities because it made more sense for the backstory :D but I am aware that in some canons Samael is just another name of Lucifer) and the third one is a powerful demon (Asam).
also they are all really old by the start of LST just saying the lore goes back thousands of years for some of them haha
And in the beginning, they were all working together - not trying to usurp the world or heaven but just to balance things out. To make sure that heaven won’t try to take control etc. Because the main conflict is between heaven and hell, the earth is just the battleground for that conflict.
Their main purpose was to maintain that balance, but of course, they are the generals of hell so they also terrorize humans and make deals and make life hard for a lot of people :D but not so much as to wipe everyone else of the face of earth :D
So the rivalry between vampires and werewolves is a more recent thing relatively. There were always some fights between them but most of the time they stayed out of each other’s way or tried to work together. So LST starts somewhere at the end of the 18th century and the beginning of the 19th century and the rivalry between werewolves and vampires is already there. So I guess? It just has a different backstory and the two factions don’t start off as enemies but develop into that. So it’s kinda different but kinda still similar :D
The story is kind of about the conflict? It’s definitely in the background, but the main story that Failon and Akin play a role in, is not really about like a war of werewolves and vampires but more about taking out the main corrupted part of the werewolf faction that started this conflict.
There is more to the backstory but I don’t wanna give out any spoilers haha :D
