This is incredible! The world building is fantastic, and you do the prompt such justice.
Lawrence really comes alive, and it's impressive how much nuance you manage to get across.
Like others, I'm jumping on the "Peter survived" bandwagon. Because while I get Lawrence's point that no one should have that kind of power, if I'd trust anyone in the White Collar verse with it, it would be Peter. And there's so much potential in the idea of Peter and Mozzie putting the world back together, each of them having lost the person they love most.
But seriously, oh Peter, his innate sense of justice, so unchanged. And Mozzie, clutching at ghosts. Even Lawrence, who doesn't need to be a hero, but also doesn't want to be seen as the bad guy.
It's a compelling situation to put Neal truly out of his depth, but it's also difficult to achieve, given Neal's intelligence, his talent for manipulation, and, above all, his adaptability. But throwing him into an alternative world run by demonology and magic, where no one's plans involve any input from him, yeah, that would do it.
once, he'd have been excited about ultimate score. These days, it just started him wondering what was about to go wrong.

Trust that feeling, Neal!
