The Devil's Consort

[MATURE CONTENT] They say the devil has no soul, that his heart had frozen over as soon as he was cast down from the heavens and tumbled straight into hell. They say a man like him could never love, that he is merely an empty shell devoid of romantics, driven only by the twisted nature of his games, the thrilling chill of lust, and of death. But I know differently. Some say he is beautiful- dancing through the night with a seductive sway of his body and a tender caress of his honeyed word that could make any mortal fall, others berate him as a monster. When I was younger, I never used to know what to believe. Never knew which legends told the truth, and which ones voiced a lie. Until one day, I tumbled straight into hell- straight into him. And that's when my whole world changed forever.

Give us your word

"With no respect whatsoever, isn't that exactly what you want? To take Lyla there so you can hand her over to the holy one and take her body? Why in the ten realms should be trust you of all people? You betrayed us once, who is to say you wont do it again?"

A round of nods pass through the demon lords. Of course, that is the question that has been resounding in all of our minds. Lyla is a traitor. Who is to say these words aren't the exact ones The Holy One planted in her head?

Going up there to meet with the Holy One- a creature she has already made a deal with, is not exactly a promising situation to be in considering Lyla's inherent inability to not keep to her promises. She could very easily place me in the hands of the Holy One to have my soul extracted to god knows where and take my body as a reward.

Frankly, I don't like the sound of that.
