Arrival Of the Cup Bearers
She thought to ask further questions, especially since Lilith seemed to be in a chatty mood, which was something that she had not managed to pull out of with virgil since she met him.
However, they had arrived.
The massive doors of the blood castle creaked open with a sound that resonated like a deep, guttural growl from the bowels of the earth.
These doors were alive, pulsating with the essence of the crimson liquid that formed them, and as they parted, a river of dark power seemed to flow into the throne room.
The very air trembled under the weight of the presence that approached. If Athena had been alone in this place. the aura alone would have killed her, but with Lilith, it was different.
In this grand hall of blood stepped the Host of Hell.
This was a fearsome assembly of beings that defied all earthly understanding. They were extreme opposites to their white winged counter parts.
