"Yes," he replied fervently. "Magic is my life's work."

"Everything I know. But I am not the most accomplished demon in the realm. I would not have been nearly killed by the demon king if I was."
"Do not underestimate yourself, Zarath. Most who go up against the demon king do not live to tell the tale. I would say that makes you fairly accomplished. You not only survived but managed to win the favor of the ruling fairies and come back to free us from a life of depravation."
