Devil's Tail
The story begins with a prayer. And it ends with a prayer. The first one is a prayer to God. The second - to the Devil.

In order to win her love back, Pavel is ready to do anything - even pray to the Devil. When one prays to God, one relies on His mercy. When one prays to the Devil, this is a deal. You can ask for whatever you want and you have to offer something in exchange. And there is only one pawn in the Devil's game...
