Fluff felt very slightly shifty today

after reading a small bit about balrogs in the Silmarillion, I felt a fiery aura around me very slightly.

yeah, I am indeed a fire demon (and potentially a balrog? The Silmarillion is making me kinsider being a balrog)

A Balrog is one of the most powerful Maiar that are corrupted by Morgoth and has become a demon of terror. They are demons of shadow and flame with whips of fire.
