The Devine Demon {Chapter 68}

“Initiate? I didn’t work my way up to wizard just be called a different form of the word apprentice.” Celeste said as she wagged a finger at Amon.

“I am sure you didn’t, now lets go I am pretty hungry and we can talk over dinner.”

“No I am serious what is my official title, and it can’t be initiate?” Celeste said as she started up the stairs following Amon.

Lilith just laughed and said “It is still better than being called demon all the time.” She said following behind Feldin, going up the stairs last.

By the time they got to the Dining hall Celeste had decided on the term ‘Faithful’ as she didn’t find it demeaning and liked the way it sounded.

“Faithful Celeste. See it just sounds right.” she said trying to get Amon to buy into it.

“I was just testing you Celeste, I spoke to Father Trendel and he has given you both the title of ‘Dawn Agent’ since you are not going to be working as Clerics normally would.”

“Dawn Agent Celeste. That's not bad either.” She said as they got into the food line.

Lilith made sure to stay to the rear of the group so as not to whip their feet out from under them. She filled up a single plate with two lamb chops and went to the same table as the others. Lilith didn’t use a chair, she just lowered herself down to the same height as Feldin. The room was only half full now as they were a bit late for dinner, “So what else did the Morninglord say?” she asked as she began cutting up her meat.

“He said that they are giving the glass jar and the description you gave me of the Warlock to a team of clerics that specialize in information gathering. They mostly just take turns Scrying, waiting for a moment where an item isn’t worn or when a spell isn’t in use. They normally get results but it takes time. He also said that it seems Orcus is on the move and gathering weapons to be used against the living. So he wants us to get you a weapon to use against the undead, its a special one too.” Amon said in between bites of his own lamb chop and green beans.

“What kind of weapon?” Lilith asked giving Amon a serious look.

“Lathander’s sword. It is still here on the mortal plane but it is lost in a dungeon. He wants you to have it since well you two are probably the only ones who can wield it.” the paladin said pointing at Lilith and Celeste.

“What is it doing in a dungeon why isn’t it in the Cathedral or in the armory?” she asked in between bites of lamb.

“Well when the gods were walking this world they needed weapons, so the greater gods like Lathander made special ones that only they could wield. That way they could never be used for the purposes of evil. So no mortal or god can touch this sword without being burned by Lathander’s light, except for you two for some reason. At least that is what Father Trendel said.” Amon explained as he gave them a knowing look.

“I got that part, but why is it in a dungeon?” Lilith asked for the second time.

“When the gods got their powers back, it was a rush not to be caught in Faerun and trapped there or locked out of their home plane if some other god got there first. In their haste some things were left behind, including Lathander’s sword, the Dawnblade. While they couldn’t touch it Cyric figured out that his rogues could use magic to move it and took the Dawnblade into a dungeon that is so dangerous that we haven’t been able to retrieve it since. We also didn’t have anyone who could wield it either so it was left in place until now.” Amon said before taking another fork full of green beans from his plate.

“I thought Cyric was imprisoned by Lathander?” Celeste asked

“Well he is now. I bet you can guess one of the reasons why.” Amon responded.

Feldin let out a hardy chuckle at that.

“So we have to go into a deadly dungeon and retrieve a divine sword so powerful that only we can touch it? When do we leave?” Lilith asked with a great deal of enthusiasm.

“Tomorrow evening. We are going to teleport to a nearby town and then it is a couple days ride to the dungeon or it may be a tomb of some kind. But Celeste is going to stay here. Father Trendel wants her to study more and has assigned a cleric to begin her formal training as a Dawn Agent.”

“Ah no fare, I want to train as an Agent too.” Lilith said in a sing song voice revealing she was not really upset as her mind was still thinking about the Dawnblade.

“You are going to do a different kind of training tomorrow. The Order has given you a stipend of 800 gold for you to pick up spell scrolls or magic items that you need for this journey. We will be escorting you tomorrow and tracking the expenses. So please plan accordingly.”

“Oh I know the best places for magic items. But you really need to go back to Blackstaff Tower. I can get us a few scrolls for cost or maybe even for free if we ask Lara, my dad makes a lot of the potions that they use.” Celeste said as she clapped her hands together in excitement.

“That sounds like a plan.” Lilith said finishing off her plate and pushing it away.

“I thought you were going on a diet.” Amon said pointing a knife at Lilith’s empty plate.

“I cast pact magic today and that is just one plate.” Lilith complained.

“With two pork chops that you made disappear.” Feldin added.

“My biology might be different from the Noodle’s anyways we don’t know for sure. So I will just eat in moderation. One plate per meal.”

“If you say so but if you don’t fit into the teleportation portal tomorrow don’t blame me.” Brother Amon warned

Lilith made a long drawn out huff as she crossed her arms and watched the others finish their meals. What did they expect, she couldn’t just sit at a table with delicious smelling people and food without drooling or licking someone. Lilith then had to make a point to swallow some of her saliva as her mouth and stomach seemed to have been expecting a second plate. With the smells making her feel hungry again she decided to leave the table early a bit frustrated and went back down to her room by herself wanting to get away from the smells and the smug paladins with their normal bodies and their normal appetites.

Once she was in the common area she sat on a love seat that was against the wall, stacking her coils in a way that kept her in place. Lilith thought back to what Celeste has said about getting some scrolls from Lara but what she really needed was to be taught how to enchant items. Not wasting any time Lilith thought of Vicemage Lara Harsard and cast Sending. “Hello Lara I would like to learn how to enchant magic items tomorrow. Can you arrange it?”

Lilith loved this spell as the person on each end knew exactly who they were speaking to if they had met previously. Only ten seconds later the reply came back. “We keep several enchanters on staff I will ensure that one is at your disposal. Can we meet in the morning?”

“Yes and I have some funds to help. I would like to enchant a weapon and perhaps some armor I hope you have the materials.”

“The funds will not be needed. Yes we have materials you can practice with. The cost is to help Wendel with his task. Meet in tower 8 AM.”

Satisfied with the conversation Lilith felt herself relax in the sofa a little more. Finally away from the smell of food and people she lifted an arm to let Noodle one coil up next to her as they had become curious as to what she was doing. Lilith pet him on his large, smooth scaled head as she thought about Wendel and his task. He was searching for someone on behalf of the tower and he either needed help finding them or help bringing them to heel, she surmised.

Celeste then came down the stairs without the paladins, “Oh don’t you guys look comfortable.” Celeste said looking at the Noodles resting on the love seat along with Lilith.

Lilith just smiled as she was still thinking about Wendel and what he might be caught up in.

Celeste sat down in one of the leather chairs after she turned it around to face towards her demon shaped friend. “What was bothering you? Amon was a bit worried, but I told them to get out of their armor and get some rest. You aren’t some baby that needs to be coddled.”

“They are a bit stifling, but I know they mean well its just…..”

“It was the smell again wasn’t it.”

“Its not just the smells is the effect being hungry has on me. If I don’t eat I don’t’ feel right. You know, I start drooling, or thinking about biting people.”

“Ok, but you wouldn’t bite anyone and no one cares if you drool.” her friend said with a serious look on her face as she shook her head at the notion.

“Its still uncomfortable having those thoughts. I still remember when I bit your arm, and all the blood and even in the memory the blood tasted so good and I hate myself for that.” Lilith said as she placed both hands on the sides of her head messing up her red hair. She then shook it out and pushed it behind her shoulders and gave Celeste a pitiful look and a long sigh.

Celeste bent down and picked up Lilith’s tail and pulled it into her lap laying it over the arms of the comfy leather chair. She then began to stroke her tail like she was petting a dog or a cat. “Its ok that's not you. That's just the nature of your body, you aren’t a monster.” She offered with a kind look and a smile.

This was a new sensation for Lilith she had never had anyone pet her before, much less pet the sensitive part of her tail. She doubted that Celeste really knew what she was doing as she had just grabbed the part of Lilith that was within reach. ‘She could have sat next to me? Or was she being considerate knowing how I was struggling with the scent of humans and food?’ Lilith wondered as she shot a smile back at Celeste. Feeling a bit better Lilith changed the subject, “I spoke to Lara just now about visiting the tower tomorrow.”

“Oh what did she say?” Celeste asked as she continued to pet her friend's tail even as it twitched and moved slightly.

Lilith was feeling very calm now and she practically melted into the love seat. What she was feeling wasn’t sexual pleasure but more of a secure and comforted feeling as her friend held part of her in her lap. “She wants to meet but she also wants me to help out Wendel with something. Did you know he was still in town?”

“No I didn’t but I remember they were supposed to have dinner last night.” she admitted.

“Well apparently he is searching for someone and either he needs help finding them or they need my help to take them down or capture them.” Lilith explained

“So are you going to help him?” Celeste asked as she leaned forward and stopped petting Lilith

“Of course, but I may have to ditch my escort to do so.” Lilith said with a smile that only Celeste could recognize.

“Oh no what are you going to do to the poor Paladins?”

“Nothing I hope. I mean I am going to have to ditch them somehow the question is just where and when. So I am thinking that Lara probably has a plan already so I will just talk to her and follow her lead.” Lilith said speaking directly into Celeste’s mind

“Or you could just tell Amon and see his response first?” Celeste said as she tilted her head back and forth for emphasis.

Lilith let out a nervous chuckle and then said, “Oh I forgot that was even an option. Sure I will try that.”

Celeste eventually put down Lilith’s tail and went to pick up the book of harmony before returning to her seat. She was about half way through the book now and seemed to be getting a lot out of it.

Lilith hadn’t considered asking Amon directly as she had believed it was better to ask for forgiveness than not be permission. But she figured Amon would probably hear her out or come up with some type of compromise. Lilith thumped her tail on the floor missing the sensation of being petted. Wanting the same type of comfort again she decided to call Kevin and see how he was doing. “Kevin, I might be heading out on a mission soon to get a magical sword. I will visit you when I get back.”

She then waited her tail ticking into the air and dropping with a thump. Celeste looked at her side eyed annoyed at the distraction.

Then she heard Kevin’s reply “I thought you already had a magical sword? Bindi is studying with the Dawnbringer tonight so I am in the temple with her.”

Lilith wanted to talk to Kevin some more but she was running low on spell energy and this was making her feel tired earlier than she expected. ‘I will have to make some sending stones for Kevin and for Celeste as well, maybe Bindi too’ she thought as her head leaned back against the wall.

“Hey don’t fall asleep there, you will get a stiff neck just go lie down if you are tired.” Celeste said as Lilith was about to slide off the love seat.

“Oh ya I should do that” she said with a yawn before she snaked her way to her room bumping into a table as she went.

Lilith took off her dress and bra and went to sleep wearing just her skirt as she wrapped a blanket around herself. The Noodles slept on her bed as well since they were too big to fit on a pillow any more. Lilith thought about turning out the candles but remembered that this room didn’t have any. It just had glowing crystals on the walls and she had never turned them on. Instead all the light was coming from under the door, the room partially illuminated from that direction. She turned her head away from the door and coiled herself so that she could hold onto the end of her tail. She began to pet it and the sensation quickly put her to sleep.

Celeste fixed the furniture that her friend had accidentally moved around, then went back to her book. She was now three quarters through it and was beginning to understand the concepts and morals that were involved in a self governed society. The concept of your rights stopping where someone else’s rights began was a good dividing line between personal desires and your neighbor's right to be their own person. So even if you want to sing loudly in the confines of your apartment, when your voice intrudes into your neighbor's home your right to sing has reached its limit. The examples in the book were easy to follow and she found herself moving from chapter to chapter with ease.

Eventually she grew tired too and went to her bed about an hour and a half later. It would be her first night sleeping in this basement. She had dreaded the thought but found that having her friend so close by made her feel better. She soon fell asleep thinking of what she had learned that day and the joys of flying so fast.

Lilith dreamed of Kevin petting her tail as they sat on top of the walls of Cromm’s Hold watching the sun set over the swamp. In the distance they could see the orange reflection of the ocean like a shimmering strip of gold on the horizon. Then they saw a green Ogre crawl up the cliff’s edge and towards the wall yelling ‘get out of my swamp’ in a strange Scottish accent. She then cast disintegrate turning both him and his donkey to ash. Kevin laughed and Lilith pretended to blow smoke from her finger as if it was a pistol. They continued to sit there together looking at the view as she enjoyed being petted by someone for only the second tme.

Lilith then heard Kevin speak to her from her right but instead of it being his voice it was Lathander’s. His voice was kind and warm and seemed to have a rich sound as if it had spoken throughout the ages. She turned to him and saw the Morninglord with his hand on her tail “Don’t worry about the food it makes no difference.” He said with a smile.

Lilith suddenly became aware she was in a dream and spoke to him “Thanks for telling me. I really do love my food.” she said with a nod.

“I know.” He said as he pat Lilith on the tail.

She then looked out over the swamp and saw that the sun was now rising instead of setting in the West. ‘It is a dream I suppose anything is possible’ Lilith thought.

“Now I must give you these words for they will be your shield. ‘Do not get lost to the moment. Instead remember who you are and what you are to do’.” Lathander said with a serious look on his face as he held up a single finger.

‘Is he telling me to focus on one thing?’ Lilith asked herself. She gave him a confused look that only seemed to make him smile. His face then flared bright, obscuring it for a moment and then he was Kevin once more. He resumed petting Lilith’s tail and the sun began to set again. She felt comfortable, at peace and she drifted off, back into a restful slumber.

Lilith awoke slowly hearing the soft breathing of the two snakes next to her. Then she heard here own breathing sounding like that of a large animal like a horse or a cow, her long drawn out breath taking 5 seconds to go in and 5 seconds to go out. The odd cadence woke her fully and she looked around the dim room in a panic not knowing what time it was. She rushed out her door to look at the clock in the common area, not wanting to be late for her appointment with Lara. There she saw that it was 7:20 in the morning and she had enough time to prepare properly. Her panic now over she heard a cough from one of the leather chairs. Lilith turned abruptly her breasts swinging and moving for a good time after she had turned. She was topless and her still sleepy eyes struggled to focus but eventually found the source of the sound. There she saw Amon with his fist over his mouth. Lilith just turned away from him and went back to her room, pausing at her door and saying back over her shoulder, “I need a clock in my room it seems. One with an alarm function.”

She did not wait for a reply she just slid back into her room as she was only wearing a skirt, she put on her bra, arming jacket and armor. She then put her jewelry back on and picked up her satchel which had some gold and her checkbook. Lastly she put on her adamantine sword and headed back out to see the paladin.

“That's more like it.” he said as the 35’ long demon slid into the room for the second time that day. This time fully clothed. Lilith humored him and motioned with her hands showing off her armored skirt and chest armor.

“Ya I have an appointment with Lara at 8 o’clock.”

“I think we can get you each a clock for your rooms but what did you mean by an alarm function?”

“It is like those clocks that chime every hour, but it chimes only on one hour of the day and you can change what hour that is.” Lilith explained as she looked over the lists she had made yesterday

“Oh, we just drink a glass of water before we go to bed.” Amon said calmly.

“I don’t think that would work for me.” Lilith said motioning at the size of the black river of scales laid out behind her.

“So do you have time for breakfast?” he asked.

“Only if we hurry.” Lilith said as she followed Amon up to the dining hall on the first floor. The curved stairs still gave her problems but she was getting used to it. Now in the dining hall she saw a line of about 20 clergy of various types ahead of her. Amon was already asking them if they could make way for Lilith.

She let out a sigh lamenting that a proud paladin was reduced to asking if a demon could cut in line like something she saw bullies doing in elementary school. But he was asking not demanding. A few priests stepped out but it seemed like the paladins had a schedule to keep.

That was enough for Lilith to move forward and grab a tray and she thanked each of them as she passed. It was then that she noticed Amon was not getting in line so she put a second plate on her tray and began filling it for him. Each of the plates now had a pancake, scrambled eggs and a few sausage links. Lilith carried it to a table and lowered herself to a sitting height. She then passed the plate to the empty seat across from her.

Seeing this Amon came over and sat down. Flashing Lilith a smile in the process. “Thanks” he said as he began to attack his breakfast with the same ferocity as the demon across from him. The two of them were getting a few odd looks but Lilith didn’t care, she was just glad that she didn’t have to start her busy day on an empty stomach.

Finishing quickly they left their plates behind and Lilith called out “Come on lets go.” loud enough for the rest of the room to hear and explain their haste.

She went out the entrance and turned left heading under the skyway to the back fence which did not have an opening. Brother Amon called out to her “Lils there is no exit there” but then he remembered her antics the previous day. Lilith had gone right through the fence and he began to jog to catch up to her knowing what she intended.

Lilith got to the fence first and waited for Brother Amon. She then took his hand and jumped to the other side putting them on Calamastyr Lane. Lilith then looked south and saw the tower. She moved towards it pushing forward 15’ at a time as Brother Amon walked briskly by her side. They stuck to the outside portions of the roads that had the pedestrians. Most of the people they passed stopped and stared for a second before resuming their progress. Now they were on Swords Street and the tower was looming larger in the sky. It was only five stories tall from the outside but it stood out compared to the two story buildings around it. The front gate was open and they slid in and up to the portal at the entrance. Lilith then gave a nervous look at the paladin as if to ask ‘how do you want to do this?’.

“I will go in and make sure the area is clear give me 30 seconds as usual.” he said in a calm voice as he tried to slow his breathing from the rather brisk walk. Lilith nodded and he went through.

Lilith waited a good twenty seconds before she backed up and thrust herself into the portal. She slid to a stop on the other side about 25’ past the portal. There she saw Amon off to the side next to one of the two guards.

“See.” he said to the guard as he motioned a hand at Lilith.

She then approached the same guard and said. “Lilith of Devine here to see Vicemage Lara Harsard.”

He simply nodded and pointed to his compatriot at the other side who stepped out and began to lead the two of them to the portal at the far end of the passage. “She is waiting for you in the grand hall.” He said as they were halfway across the entryway. He then motioned at the portal indicating that they were free to proceed without escort.

Lilith waited for Brother Amon and they did just like before. He went through first and she waited. Again she went through with some speed and slid to a stop as a group of students was being held up by Brother Amon preventing them from getting close to the portal. They inhaled a breath as a group and each said something different as they saw Lilith emerge from the shimmering gateway.

“Thanks Brother.” Lilith said to alert him to her arrival. She then heard a loud clacking noise that reverberated throughout the grand hall. It was steady and persistent growing louder as it approached. It was Lara and it was the sound of the ornate black staff she walked with sounding out on every second step she took.

“Greetings Lilith I am glad you came.” She said with a smile as her right hand motioned for the student to continue on their way into the exit portal. Lilith moved forward and gave her a gentle handshake remembering all the stories about wizards dying to incidental damage. Instead she was surprised when she shook her hand vigorously and with some force. “This way if you please. Wendel is waiting for us in my office.” she beckoned as she turned to head towards a set of portals that were elevated up on a platform that was guarded by a single wizard. Her long black hair swinging from side to side as she walked faster, now carrying her staff aloft rather than walking it.

The grand hall was still impressive, the cathedral itself could fit inside of it. Sunlight came in through many windows made of stained glass, the colors averaging out to white. But the design was a mixture of flowing shapes and lines reminding Lilith of spells being cast and flung at each other. There were many wizards inside the tower and just as many apprentices. The students ranged in age from 12 to 18 and all seemed to have the same black robes with white cuffs. The wizards however were dressed in many different colored robes and outfits.

As they walked Lilith spoke to Amon, “Brother they want me to assist Wendel with something today. I don’t know what yet, but can I count on you to help me with this?” Lilith asked as she slid beside him.

The paladin gave her a nod and said “I am here to help you not be your babysitter as Celeste reminded me yesterday. I can’t promise to help Wendel but I will certainly help you where I can.”

Lilith nodded her head in acknowledgment and then looked up at the platform in front of them.

Lara went up first the guard giving them no mind letting each of them pass without challenge. She then waited for Lilith and Brother Amon to stand behind her and she pointed at the top of the portal where Lilith saw the number 33 embedded into the border of the glowing window of energy. She would have never noticed it if the Vicemage hadn’t pointed it out. “I am on the thirty third floor.” She said before she went through followed shortly by Brother Amon. Lilith then went through about 15 seconds later feeling confident that the way would be clear.

Sure enough it was and the other end had a much brighter decor. The room was well lit, had white carpet and white walls, while black marble columns lined each corner of the room. The columns combined together into arches as if they were holding the ceiling up. The furniture looked brand new. It all had sharp lines and polished wood surfaces that looked like mirrors. Behind the first desk was a woman in a white and black commoners dress the colors and the blocking matching the Vicemage’s robes but indicated she was not a wizard. She approached and whispered something into Lara’s ear and then went back to her desk.

Lara then excused herself, heading to her office sending Wendel out to greet Lilith. “Lilith, I am glad you came please excuse Lara she has to call someone. We are tracking a devil that is loose in the city and she has several wizards tracking him.” Wendel said as she gave Lilith a hug and shook Amon’s hand.

“What kind of devil?” Lilith asked after he had finished greeting them.

“Its a Rakshasa, we think. It keeps changing identities and even charmed some of the guards that were trying to capture him along with a group of paladins of Helm.” Wendel said before he heard a door open behind him.

Lara then stepped out and motioned for everyone to come in. Lilith went in last and could only manage about a third of her length as the rest of her stayed out in the hall. Her office was large by normal standards and had a shelf behind her desk with several sending stones and magical items at the ready. There was also a wooden box that seemed out of place as it was roughly made unlike the magical items siting next to it. “Sorry about that I had to organize a meet up between another relief group to keep following the devil.” She said as she sat down in her chair behind a desk made from pure black wood polished to a mirror finish.

“That's ok, I can’t imagine how difficult it must be to track. I take it that is what you want help with? You want me to kill this devil?.” Lilith asked with a smile but also with a very calm voice.

“Yes we had a terrible attack the day before you arrived. A group of paladins and guards tried to apprehend a devil that they sensed inside a shop near the River Gate. It looked human but when they went to put manacles on him he overpowered the guards and charmed one of the paladins making him attack several of his compatriots. He then killed a guard by biting his neck and then flew away in the confustion.” Lara said as she slapped the desk in a bit of frustration.

“That's terrible. No wonder those guards were so jumpy yesterday.” Lilith said now giving Lara her full attention.

“That is why I was so happy to hear from Wendel it was like divine providence that he arrived here just when we needed a Master Conjurer to help track down such a fiend.” Lara said as she gestured towards Wendel with one hand.

“I thought you said he flew away? Why did he come back?” Brother Amon asked.

“Devils usually have a plan or an objective. They wouldn’t come to a place like Waterdeep if they didn’t have a reason, so we figured he would show up again. So I enlisted the help of Wendel and he made remarkable progress yesterday.” she said with a smile and a gesture at Wendel that told him it was his turn to speak.

“Well I contacted the guards and they had a piece of ripped clothing that tore off during the struggle with this devil. I also took statements from both the guards and the paladins and then consulted a few books here in the tower and now we are pretty sure it is a Rakshasa. Based on the spells it used the fact that it bit a man to death in one bite and that if flew away it all seems to fit. I was prepared to help them take down this fiend when you called yesterday and Lara made that deal with you while I was sitting in her office. Can you imagine my shock. I should have asked you myself but I think my pride got in the way.” Wendel said as he looked over at Lilith with an apologetic look.

“So Wendel how do you think we should take down this Rakshasa?” Lilith asked as she put a hand on her hip.

“Well first do you have an enchanted sword with you?” The Vicemage asked pointing at the sword on Lilith's back.

“No this one isn’t magical at all it is just really sharp. I brought it so I could learn how to enchant on it or on my ring or my armor.” Lilith said as she made a slight grimace not sure if she had done the right thing or not.

“I figured you might have brought a blank sword since you discussed enchanting lessons. Luckily I have the materials here and you can watch me enchant your blade. I will show you step by step.” Lara then got up and pulled a set of spare robes out of a small closet built into the side of her office and laid them across her desk. She then asked Lilith to place her sword over the robes. While Lilith did that she retrieved the wooden box from the back of the room and set it on her desk at the hilt of the sword.

Lara then opened the box and pulled out several spell scrolls and handed one to Lilith. “Wendel told me that you could memorize new spells rather quickly I have four scrolls for you to memorize if you don’t already know them.” The Vicemage said as she moved the other three scrolls to the far side of the desk closest to her demonic student.

Lilith then looked at each scrolls in shock. There was as a scroll for [Earthbind] [Remove Curse] [Bigby’s Hand] [Power Word Stun] “It seems I need all of these. They must have taken you hours to make.” Lilith said as she began memorizing the spell Earthbind which was a spell that stopped creatures from flying.

“Vara helped make two of those herself actually.” the Vicemage said as Lilith began memorizing the rune words for Remove Curse.

After she finished she looked up and asked, “Who is Vara?” But she soon saw the odd look on Lara’s face and followed up with, “I am not from around here you see, I don’t know many people.”

Her expression softened and she drew in a breath to speak. “Vara is the Archmage of this tower her office is on the 35th floor, the pinnacle of this tower.” Lara explained.

Lilith then began to memorize Bigby’s Hand, which was a multi-purpose spell that could attack, grapple or defend. Once done Lilith said “Then please thank her for me these are very advanced spells.”

“She may want to see you and thank you personally if you rid us of this fiend today.” she said as she watched Lilith read off the last spell scroll for Power Word Stun.

Lilith rubbed her glowing eyes with her hands as the last two spells seemed to take a fair bit of concentration to memorize. “Ok, I can see the spells in my codex now. Whats next?”
