 Khane sighed and simply listened. 'I suppose its back to being the observer again.' He thought. He was hoping someone here would be a bit more open with their information, but he needed discretion. He may have been a celestial, but that didn't mean that he wasn't given to the darker nature of hell's residents either. He was easily capable of enjoying what hell had to offer. But he also liked heaven. Being torn like that had disadvantages, the oddest one being his inability to stay in either for too long before getting restless. The only place he truly felt comfortable was his own little pocket dimension.

Under normal circumstances Kal wouldn't consider this a fair trade, but his curiorsity was getting the better of him this time around. "Hmm..."
Kal would lift his glass and take another drink, his eyes finally starting to stop hurting. "You've asked two questions to my one, but I think I'm going to make a deal with you out of my own curiosity. So why don't you follow me into the back, and we can discuss this in private."
This was not information that Kal would dare speak of with so many different set's of ears that could hear something they didn't need to. Turning around Kal would head to the door behind the bar, stoping only for a moment to take one more look at the picture on the wall. I will find you old friend.

Khane settled himself into darkness, becoming unnoticeable. It wasn't that he was invisible, it was just really hard to notice him. Most people stopped paying attention to him altogether, but only truly perceptive people would even notice something wrong. He quietly followed them, wondering what it was that Kal deemed so important that it couldn't be said openly.

"Correct. And these are Kain, Avery, and Negi.
Wyndom would reply, gesturing at each of the people as he said their name. "Correct again, Lucas sent us to recover some information. Taking us there would be most helpful, thank you."
It was certainly nice to have had a Guild Master approach them instead, and considering who it was, Wyndom would entrust him with more information then he normally would have - especially since Lucas had specifically mentioned to seek out one of them. Taking the stairs one at a time, Wyndom would choose his words carefully before speaking.
"I'm not exactly sure which part in your history we are searching for, perhaps scattered throughout it chronologically. However, we are searching for anything we can find about certain relics, specifically the Virtues.

"......."
Sliding herself away from the bar, Sara finished her drink and followed after Kal. It finally seemed that she would get some answers. Walking past the patrons of the bar, her dark aura would pass them all. Many demons could stand the heat but not so many were used to the cold. It was beginning to feel like she was regaining her energy.
Anyway.
Sara wondered how long Kal would let Khane follow after. Not that she cared if he listened in but Kal may be hesitant to speak if there was an eavesdropper.

"Virtues? Hmmm...The problem with that is that Heaven collects a lot of relics."
Walking and pondering, Grants riddled his mind for anything related to a "Virtue" or any special relic. He knew that St. Anne had a special relic hall in the palace but he was confident that he knew of every relic held within.
"Listen, I think instead of looking at history you should be looking into every documented relic holder. The list is quite large but it should narrow your search considerably. Heaven has a rather expansive history, naturally. I can bring you a list of Relic holders after I am done here. Until then I'd suggest reading through the history of Heaven's wars and other battles. Generally, our forces capture or find special relics at those times. Like the incident that happened about five years ago. Those pieces of armor and equipment that we had to quarantine because of the dark aura they had is an example of what I'm talking about."

The room behind the bar was empty except for a single scanner on the back wall. Kal would walk up to it and place his hand on it. The scanner would turn green and a keyboard would appear before him. After a moment of typing a stair case would reveal itself in the center of the floor. Kal would walk to the top of the stairs and wait.
"After you, it's set to close behind my energy signature. And any other signature aside from yours or mine will lock the bar down. Which means, that our dear little shadow won't be able to follow us without everyone in the bar knowing. So if I were you, I'd try and get information without attempting to follow us, if you do you will be treated as a spy. And you really don't want to know what Oni does to spies."
Kal was an Energy Vampire, energy signatures came through very clear to him even if they hid their body. Keeping track of people was second nature to him, so he knew they had been followed and gave proper warning. If his warning was ignored Khane would find his life in great danger. Some of the special security measures that Kal and Oni installed in the bar were quite dangerous to anyone other than Kal himself.

 Khane sighed in disapproval. "Well, what was I supposed to do? You practically ignored me after dismissing my question. The least you can do is point me to someone that can help. You may not find my info of use, but I'm sure someone else might." To be turned away at every corner was starting to grate on his nerves. He needed to get back in the loop, and if this bartender wouldn't help him, then he would have to find someone else. "I don't care what you think of me, but I've been around since the first wars. I know things. And whether it's you or someone else, I'm going to get what I need."

Kal would only laugh as he stood there waiting on Sara to move on down the stairs.
"You seem to misunderstand. I have no opinion of you at all. People don't interest me, often. I deal in information, and if I feel as if your information is of no use to me, then you are of no use to me. It's that simple, but if pointing you to someone else will get you out of my hair. Why don't you try Heaven, they may have looser lips than I do."
The difference between Khane and Sara was that she was offering Kal the chance to learn what can cause the fall of an angel. This wasn't the type of information that Kal could come by easily, let alone from a source that has had it happen to them. This was a once in a lifetime opportunity, and Kal was going to take full advantage of it. If everything were to go right, Kal may even be able to bolster the army's ranks slightly.

"I do love VIP access..."
Sara would slip into the shadows of the stairwell. She'd trace her hand along the side of the wall as she descended the stairs. The mention of Khane going to Heaven made her think of someone she had long moved to the back of her thoughts.

  Khane turned without a word. He opened a portal and stepped through, letting it close after him. ((took me forever to find a decent pic for that))

With Khane gone, Kal would follow down the stairs behind Sara. The floor above them closing behind him. With the entrance closed, lights would come on one after another down the stair well. Until they came to an open door, about twenty steps down. Kal would enter the room and take a seat on one of the couches within.
"To answer your second question, no Ki wasn't the only Celestial to visit Hell. He and three others came here to speak with Oni. The answer to your first question is the two realms have currently formed an alliance. More than that I can not say, at least not until you have answered my question."
Kal had already given up more than enough information on the subject and felt that it was Sara's turn to talk.

 Walking through the darkness, Khane started to calm down. The darkness was comforting, and it gave him a sense of peace and joy that nowhere else had. He came out the corridor into the streets of heaven. He looked around, trying to locate the fortress that most of heaven's leaders could be found at.

Devil-Steel With Khane gone, Kal would follow down the stairs behind Sara. The floor above them closing behind him. With the entrance closed, lights would come on one after another down the stair well. Until they came to an open door, about twenty steps down. Kal would enter the room and take a seat on one of the couches within.
"To answer your second question, no Ki wasn't the only Celestial to visit Hell. He and three others came here to speak with Oni. The answer to your first question is the two realms have currently formed an alliance. More than that I can not say, at least not until you have answered my question."
Kal had already given up more than enough information on the subject and felt that it was Sara's turn to talk.
Standing against the wall to look at Kal, Sarandiel crossed her arms and let what she had just heard sink in. Oddly though this news wasn't too shocking as she had felt something was different when she came back to Hell.
"Things do seem to be changing huh? A deal is a deal though. There are many ways for a Celestial to fall from grace. I killed one of my kind. More specifically I killed the Celestial man who loved me and then I left the daughter we had behind."
Sara looked to Kal, the dark emerald hues of hers had intently moved to the demon on the couch. Kal was a hoarder of information and Sara had plenty.
"I'll leave you with a little secret. Heaven will stop at nothing to get what they want. The Council in Heaven has their own agenda."

It took him a while to find because the city layout was different from what he remembered, but eventually he saw it. It still looked magnificent. There were more memorials than before, but he had expected that. He was only really surprised when there weren't new memorials when he came back. As he looked at the new additions, though, he noticed that none of them were less than a decade old. He wondered if things had finally calmed down more than they usually did, or something was going on. He walked towards the front gate, hoping to get an idea of who was in charge now.
