Demons
"Demons?" Jake and Will stammered in unison.
"Demons, fiends, devils, call them by any name you like." Cekt spouted imperturbably. "You wouldn't know the difference between the three anyway."
Jake was dying to retort that he had memorized the entire Oraclean dictionary, but hardly tempted by a sterile debate he wisely held his tongue while smacking his lips. Will, alas, dove headlong into the honey trap.
"Devils are generally above demons and fiends are... monsters?"
An expression of pure gloating suddenly distorted the little alien's face, as if he was already savoring what was to come.
