A sacrifice?

I unsheathed my sword. 

I was weirdly excited to know demons were just as terrible as I remembered. 

"You want to play, halfling?" The demon general growled and so did his gator. 

The soldiers though, just stayed at a distance. 

"Play? Oh, no, no. That would be far too cruel for you. I'm just simply going to kill you and then destroy this army."

At this point even I wasn't sure if I was just bluffing or if I could actually pull it off. 

I probably could. 

"Are you seriously still going on about that!" Neira almost screamed as she whispered. 

She was freaking out. 

"Well, they'd go destroy your city anyway." And if left unchecked this whole army was headed off to war. 

"Huh, what do you mean?" Neria grabbed my robe and visibly paled. 

Wait, did she seriously not figure it out yet?
