Growing support for Lucifer

"Not much except he started killing two weeks ago. Until the guardians decided to warn the people, the duke kept Nightcrawler's existence a secret" One of the adventurers said, taking occasional sips of ale.

"Of course, he kept it a secret. The duke of Pen Town has been kicking his ass since the beginning of this war. He didn't want to demoralize the soldiers further by telling them about Nightcrawler. How would you feel if you're fighting a war far away while someone might kill your family back at home?"

"I would dessert," a few of the adventurers shouted, raising their mugs together.

"Are the guardians anywhere near catching this Nightcrawler?" 

"They've been investigating" the bushy beard middle-aged man air quotes the words showing his disappointment with the guardians.

"Who knows?it might be the guardians who were doing the killing as Lucifer said"
