The third main character in Unto Dust: A Mindfire Prequel is a woman named Angela. She's also the supervillain Malevolence. A tricky character to write, it also made this song an interesting challenge for the same reason. Angela developed extremely strong telepathic powers that initially traumatized her enough for her to disassociate and form a new personality to control the powers.


That personality called herself Malevolence and this song is from her perspective not long after she came to be. The tie-in to the story is that she is Steve Hamilton(Crusader)'s ex-girlfriend. And she becomes Leia Hamilton's biological mother. This song is Malevolence's favorite music style: 90s goth rock. I wrote the lyrics and made the music/vocals using Suno A.I.

One of the most profound scenes in Allen Steadham's Mindfire (A Christian fiction superhero thriller novel) is between the main character Leia's estranged parents. Her father was the superhero Crusader and her biological mother is the supervillain Malevolence (who hasn't been in their lives for 20 years). At one point, the two of them meet and are able to have a heartfelt talk. It's not romantic, just reminiscing without all the bitterness. They start to make real progress but then something gets in the way. Steadham wrote the lyrics to this song based on what happened in the book. He made the music and voices with Suno A.I.
