Say your goodbyes.

In the cavern's grand chamber, the air is now entirely different. It was terrifying at first, but now the high succubus herself treats you kindly (mostly). She stands before your party like a queen, but it's you she bows to. She offers you a polite curtsy, and a wide smile.

"This will not be the last time we meet," she says. "But for now, I would like to offer you one final parting gift. May I see your sword?"

You have no reason not to trust her. Well, if she did want to kill me, she wouldn't need the sword to do it.

After handing over the sword, she looks it over curiously. She then brings it near Snow as the metal starts to glow. When she moves it away, the glow begins to fade. A devious smile stretches across her face as she looks back to you.

"So that's what it does..." she says quietly.

Eva looks around confused. "It detects cats?"

"Who are you calling a cat?" the assassin Snow replies.

"You!" Eva barks back.

Much to your surprise, Mistress Dajy then brings the sword up in the air, and slices straight through one of her horns. It clatters to the ground at your feet. Everybody, especially her own allies, look absolutely shocked. She then hands the sword back to you and gestures to the gift she's laid before you.

"Tell them you've successfully slain the great high succubus Mistress Dajy. I'm sure you'll receive a standing ovation," she explains. "It's a small price to pay for my freedom."

You pick the horn up and look it over. "Wow. Thank you. But where will you go?"

"Oh how sweet of you to care, but I assure you that I'll have little trouble finding a place to live. Take care now, and be careful. He is still out there."

"Wait. Can you tell me more about this demon king?"

"Ah of course. You might be disappointed to know that I've been merely working for him, not living with him, though I do know a bit about the man. He's charismatic and manipulative, even without magic. His name is Sa'dis, and he's true to his title. Unlike many of the demon kings, he is actually a demon, just like me. A powerful one at that. I heard that his father was a demon king as well, a long time ago. That's about all I know."

"If you bring that horn to the queen in the capital, she's sure to reward you greatly," Rabbit's Foot says.

You think about the situation for a moment before responding. "True, but we shouldn't make it too public. It might just piss off this Sa'dis guy. I'd rather not have people after me immediately again."
