Approaching the foreboding entrance of the arena, the group was abruptly halted by the presence of a diminutive red devil standing guard. Its eyes gleamed with a malevolent hunger as it demanded souls as the entrance fee, a toll to be paid in the currency of the infernal realm.
Ren and the others exchanged glances, contemplating their options in the face of this unexpected demand.
"You have souls?" Elena asked.
Ren and Evie shook their heads in response.
Lorelai frowned, and growled, "Why don't I get your soul and offer it as payment, huh?!"
Desira rolled her eyes and said, "Stop that. Do you solve everything with force?"
Lorelai nodded confidently. "Yes. It solves most of the problems quickly."
