Cerebus
Cerebus; Red Sophia (first story appearance); Feras; Henrot
Cerebus is hired by the wizard Henrot to torture and kill Feras, who besmirched the honor of his stunning (but insufferable) daughter, Red Sophia. Henrot insists that Sophia must accompany Cerebus to witness the punishment, which ends up making a long voyage even longer in Cerebus' opinion. Along the way, Cerebus earns Sophia's everlasting devotion. The problem is, he can't stand her. A solution presents itself when they finally catch up to Feras: Cerebus insists that Feras and Sophia get married. After all, what could be a worse punishment for the poor guy?
