Namine chuckled as she crossed her arms. By that, I assume you speak of the Arch-Demon known simply as the 'Storm King', the so-called Ruler of this place," she said as Adjucator finished vanishing and Namine reached to collect its Soul. She had plans for that later. "Well, it seems we have a fight ahead of us then. Especially as I think there's one more Greater Demon between us and Storm King if memory serves me and the rumors are true."

"Dragon God, Storm King, what's next the Soul Duke?" He sighed, pulled on his work gloves, and began mixing a poison to coat his weapons. Fair play was for knights and besides near as he could tell these demons were flesh and blood like any other living thing, excluding the Tower Knight and Flame Lurker. "So what's our next friend supposed to be? A grizzly bear with bad breath?"

She chuckled. "Old Hero. A blind Demon said to rival Tower Knight in size with sword that rivals him in size," Namine replied in a serious tone. "Old Hero guards the door the Monolith shrine where Storm King dwells. We'll need to be careful killing it as it's rumored Old Hero can hear your breathing and even heartbeat."

Kale stopped mid pour. "Alexis, when I asked what kinds of heroes they worshiped earlier you might have mentioned this guy." The mixture finished he coated a few arrows and a dagger in it. Somehow he didn't think the demonsbrandt would appreciate being used for such an "underhanded" tactic. He put the heavy duty gloves back where they belonged and readied a holy arrow. Somehow poison didn't seem like it would be effective on skeletons, if they ran into more.

"its not the skeletons we should worry about, a creature known as the reaper lurks nearby, as their name implies they resemble the grim reaper, it also has a rather unique ability in the sense that it can summon lesser demons known as shadowlurker's, if you see a shadowlurker kill it and go find the reaper before it summons more to take its place" said Alexis as she led the way. "Oh and dont let the Reapers touch you unless you want to be reduced to a stain on the floor".

"So it's as dangerous as everything else around here. Great." He put a hand on the Demonsbrandt for reassurance and then an idea struck him and his shoulder slumped. "It doesn't have a body, nor blood of any sort does it? So I made that poison for no reason. Ugh. Also, Alexis, as you seem to know just about absobloodalutely everything, next time I want a full overview of what we're going to be fighting before we leave to fight it."

"Oh dont worry, its not the real grim reaper, just a physical manifestation of it, all the demons here arent real demons, just beings possessed and warped by them, they can be killed by any weapon that can kill a normal man." Replied Alexis, "on a side note the soulless however were those deemed unfit to become vessels for demons hence their "normal" appearance, they can also inhabit the bodies of the dead such as these skeletons or like chuck's body back at the tower of latria".
