A Gift Horse

"Ah well sure I can tell you what you want to know," she says and then with a conspiratorial wink, "like that there is indeed an identification spell that can tell you things about enemies... It didn't always exist though... A certain mage added it to the tower's repertoire after seeing how much demand there was for one... Though it's not a support spell, it's a utility spell," she explains, "Oh also it apparently wasn't made clear, but the demonic dress is a cursed item. Putting it on will make it impossible to take back off unless somehow it's destroyed and trying to cut it off with weapons won't cut it," she adds.

"As for the rest of the questions... The gauntlets are called The Gloves of Harvest. They are technically weapons and armor and can be wielded with another weapon while still getting their effect. That effect being automatically applying life drain to your attacks. Pretty useful. The demon horn hairband looks super cute and also provides immunity from cold and empowers ice magic. It can't be worn with the halo though," she explains.

"As for the Harvester... She would have **** you, she's a succubus. A specifically powerful one, but otherwise just a Succubus. She would have attempted to as her name suggests harvest your soul... through your vagina. Also don't fall for the whole 'let's play' act. She's not a child, she's a sadistic homicidal monster who likes to act coy while describing the horrible things she intends to do. While you probably could have come to an arrangement with her, and she likely wouldn't have actually sucked the entirety of your soul out of you it would be very one sided and you would not have come out of it well. Killing her was the best option. A fact that is true of all the floor monsters," Alide says and there's an edge to her voice. Clearly there's something of note between her and the floor monsters, but it doesn't seem likely she'll be forthcoming with that information.

"I don't think we need any healing and it seems like the plan is to ignore Levateinn for now and explore the Demon of Gifts' portion of the floor for now, so I guess goodbye for now Alide, see you next floor," Yulia says and Alide nods.

"Indeed. Bye Yulia, see you next floor oh and say hi to Dahlia for me. As I imagine you can expect, she's here on this floor as well," Alide says and it almost seems like a warning, before Yulia and the group exit the room and Alide is undoubtedly gone. They are back in the meeting room and with a quick glance towards the door leading back towards Levateinn, they head through the other door.

Through this door they find a chamber. Inside there are a number of imps like Li, though they don't seem as powerful, lesser imps perhaps. They seem to be working on an assembly line of sorts. Strange organic conveyor belts carry objects through the room which the imps perform different functions on, either mechanical functions such as repairs or modifications, or magical functions such as enchantments. A closer look at the objects reveals they seem to be weapons, armor, sex toys and various other equipment and consumable items, it seems this is the source of many if not all of the demonic items in the tower. A quick count finds there are about 12 imps total and it seems likely they would not respond well to any attempt to steal the items, but it would probably be possible if Yulia believed she and her party could defeat the twelve imps in the room. Past this strange factory floor of a chamber there's a large ornate door with a symbol of a blacksmith's hammer emblazoned on it.

A few of the imps are glancing at the group in between their work, but they don't seem hostile, just curious and of course aroused by the view of the four women. Many of their glances being lecherous leers instead.
