The hot, hellish winds blew over the Tower of Hell as the Head Warden sat in his exclusive study hall.
The room was adorned with shelves upon shelves of ancient scrolls and books, some dating back centuries. The walls were decorated with a few paintings depicting the battles and accomplishments of legendary demons, a vivid embodiment of the rich history of the Demon Kingdom.
At the center of the study stood a massive wooden desk, its dark and polished surface a map of the tower carved with painstaking detail.
The air was thick with the scent of aged parchment and the faint aroma of rare plants. A large, ornate window behind the desk overlooked the vast expanse of the kingdom, providing a breathtaking view of the lands below.
Duncan Doru, a focused and imposing figure, sat in his high-backed leather chair, his fingers steepled as he awaited the arrival of Rebecca and Asher.
