The woman had been interesting with her quite colorful reply and had made him smile in slight satisfaction at legitimately riling up at least one of the members of this little group. But as the man stepped forward, Dameon narrowed his eyes as he examined the man he know knew to be Lucian. He was far more intrigued by this man now that he had actually met him and learned that he was possibly immortal like himself. Dameon could also feel the power writhing inside of Lucian.

"Interesting" he muttered as he crossed his arms. "Very interesting" he said slightly louder. "You're an immortal like myself then. Or perhaps I am like you." he said with a far more calm and even tone than he had before. "I don't quite care which it is as age is meaningless to me."

"Allow me to properly introduce myself." Dameon said as he stood straight and tilted his head slightly towards Lucian. "I am Dameon Kuroshi." he finished with a small polite bow. "I would like to...apologize for the antagonistic comments earlier. You see, I find that people often show their true character when angered, if only slightly. For example, I ahve learned that Grim here is very calm and manipulative." he said as he gestured towards the death angel.

"And the charming young woman over there clearly has a temper and I wouldn't be surprised to find myself back in Purgatory before the night is over." Dameon said as he motioned towards Bella. "You however appear to be calm and collected, but there's more to it. That aside I once again, would apologize for my insults." Dameon said with a slight nod towards the group.

"Now, I original came here to personally extend my thanks to you for sending your subordinate to retrieve me which in turn sped up my healing process and allowed me to roam freely far sooner than I otherwise would have." Dameon spoke with a calm and even tone as tilted his head to Lucien before he spoke up again.

"Though now that I am here I find myself far more interested in this offer you have extended to me." Dameon said as he kept his focus on Lucian and tuning out the surrounding group.

"However. If I may, I would like to request to speak with you, privately." Dameon said as he pointed away from the group. "But if you desire for me to speak before your subordinates then I will as this is your kingdom and I will respect whatever rules or laws you lay down."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Elder One stood calmly listening to Dameon speak. He said nothing that Lucian did not already know and so Lucian disregarded most of the pleasantries. He had not yet secured his empire and power. He had not yet brought everyone within sight under his control and so time was still a rare commodity. Lucian smiled slightly when Dameon said he was interested in Lucan's offer. It was amusing because Lucian had not offer, simply and ultimatum. Live in his new world or die in his old one. Briefly Lucian turned and looked at the little girl who still seemed to be awaiting an order. Lucian recognized children to be the future of his empire, however he would not condone child soldiers. "Go to your friend Ixio and do as he tells you. That is how you can help me most."

With that said Lucian returned his attention to Dameon and took a step towards the being he had ordered be brought from purgatory. "Privacy is something this world greatly lacks. Whatever you have to say can be said among all who serve me. I will not lie to them nor will I allow them to lie to me. So speak openly."

Dameon frowned beneath his face covering and crossed his arms. "Very well then. I have a proposition for you. However before I get to that, I would like to ask you but three simple questions." He said as he held up three fingers.

"Before you answer allow me to clarify that should I not like your answers or should you refuse to answer I will simply leave and return to Purgatory where any intrusion commuted by you or your subordinates part will be seen as an act of war. However, should I agree with your answers, not only have my full support but the support of my armies as well as access to my libraries along with all of my collected resources to help your kingdom reign supreme." Dameon knew leaving wouldn't be such a simple task as he made it sound especially if Lucian was anything like himself.

"First question: Why do you seek dominion over this world? Second question: What do you plan to do once you conquer this world?" He asked as he lowered two fingers as well as his face mask revealing his frown as he asked his last question.

"Final question: Should the situation call for you to sacrifice any one of us present or to leave one of us to our...death or to kill us, will you? Or will you seek another means to achieve your goal?" Dameon lowered his remaining finger into a fist.

However as he lowered his hand he felt the surge of black magic surge through his body as it began to leak out of his body and quickly held his hands into a submissive pose to avoid any misunderstandings that he might be attacking and quickly spoke up. "Do not be alarmed! This is just side effect of my curse!"

The magic finally formed around his body before turning into a black mist that fell almost harmlessly around his feet causing the moss to blacken and die. "None of you are in danger unless you happen to have the life force of a small animal." Dameon said with a light tone as his eyes roamed to the small child and walked a few paces away from her.

⌊Grim moved away from the others and floated next to Lucian to hear the conversation between the to ancient beings. He listens intently to Dameon's questions and laughed. How absurd. Do you believe this is a negotiation? Its an ultimatum. Join us and live in a new age of peace or die with this relic of an age and be logged in pages of history. But it isnt my place to decide such things. Grim leans back as to hear Lucian's response to the questions.⌉

Ixio watches as Lucian tells penny to stay with him. Come on Penny. Let them have some privacy. He turns to Bella and smiles. I like the feeling you give off. You look as if you could do some real damage Ms. Demon Weapon. The Name is Ixio, Lightning Demon Emperor of the Realm of Thunder. He turns to watch Lucian, Grim, and Dameon converse. Master Lucian is even more amazing in person, dont you think? My ambition is to be head of his bodyguard force, not that he needs it of course, but it would give me purpose. Plus he's guaranteed Penny's safety so I'll gladly do whatever he ask of me in return. He turns to Bella with a big grin. This empire he plans to create will be unstoppable dont you think?

Lucian smiled slightly at Dameon's statement and questions. He looked over at Grim with a slight nod. The Angel of Death was not wrong, it was more of an ultimatum than offer, however Lucian would play along with Dameon's little inquisition. Having made his choice Lucian motioned for Grim to be silent before speaking.

"Grim is not entirely correct nor is he entirely wrong but I will answer your questions because I have little to hide from any who serve my will. I do not seek dominion over just this world, I seek dominion over them all, all realms all worlds so that they can be united under one man's rule. No more wars, no more murder. I seek to create a world where no one needs to fear they will be killed crossing the street. " Lucian paused, his reason for wanting this was simple but he would not tell Dameon yet. The man had not earned that. "As for your second question, once I have control of all the land I seek, I will do what kings do, I will rule. Judging the guilty and ensuring justice is served to those who betray their king." Lucian paused again and looked up towards the top of the mountain where he would begin his kingdom. The third question was simple to him.

"Sacrifice implies you have the choice to live or die. Should someone choose to sacrifice themselves so that my empire may continue, they will be honored, but if I am given the chance to prevent it, they will not have to make that choice. Should one of you commit some crime against me you will be treated as the rest, imprisoned, tried, and if found guilty, executed." Lucian turned and looked at Dameon again. Lucian would allow the man to leave if that was all he wished to do. But he would only let it happen once.

"Now you must listen to me. I will allow you to leave this one time if you disagree with me, but eventually I will come after Purgatory and when I do, you will not be able to stop me. No one in your army, nor yourself will be able to keep me from taking over." It was then that the black magic began seeping from Dameon and Lucian's hand turned to a fist. Was this man seriously dumb enough to strike at Lucian? Evidently not. As the man claimed it was a side effect of his curse Lucian reinstalled his calm posture. "The ball is in your court as they say. Make your choice. "

Bella had expected the small nugget, now the Pennuget as she called her, to be somewhat precious, if not disgustingly so, but she hadn't expected her to be so adorable in the process. She kept a straight face as the girl hugged her. She froze for a moment, quite surprised at such a display of affection. But at the same time, she wasn't unwilling to deny the gesture. She was glad that the little girl peeled herself off before Lady Nightshade had to do that for her. Her aether had not gone unnoticed, but Bella Donna wasn't exactly sure if it was that, or perhaps something akin to her own powers.

Bella Donna stood up, looking at Lucien who was conversing with the others. She guessed that he would handle the issues, and really, that's all she cared about. It made her life easier. She then looked to Ixio, golden eyes regarding his features. "Why thanks honeybuns!" she purred softly as she pulled back her deep purple hair behind her, showing more of her face markings, and the shadowy markings on her arms. "Bella Donna Nocturne, Lady Nightshade. And this is your Pennuget?" she asked him, looking back down at Penny. "She's... cute." She wasn't sure how to word it, not that she was lying. Penny was adorable. She was just too adorable, and perhaps stood a greater threat to Bella Donna than other people in the room. Alright... maybe if I think of her like a lil' gremlin, I can handle it. she thought.

"I'm here because I want to be, I like trouble. And I'm bored." she noted. "Also because, logic told me that I'd rather go along with this than have to face stoic zombie man over there." referring to Lucien. In actuality, with Bella being Haitian, to see that Lucien died and came back was something of a great reverence. Similar to Bella in what had happened to her. However, she strutted forward and took a better look at Ixio now. A sultry smirk crossed her features as she felt for any darkness in the man, not that she would need it. Lucien had plenty of it, as did Grim. "You and the others sound a bit confident about this, dontch ya think?" she asked him as she crossed her arms. "And security force huh? I guess that would make you my superior, because that whole weapon nonsense." she told him.

Dameon kept his mind blank and his emotions hidden as he listened to Lucian's answers. When he was sure the man was done speaking he turned his back to the man as he walked to the ledge of the platform and look out at the vast wildlife that lay below. He let himself smirk and chuckled lightly with a sigh. "You and I. How frighteningly similar we are in our goals yet so different in our ethics and practice." he spoke evenly and quietly but loud enough to be heard. He couldn't help the countless memories of his many times of conquering this world only to be forced to leave because of his curse rendering all his efforts pointless in the long run.

He glanced over his shoulder, "You need not conquer Purgatory for it is under my command and I under yours. Your will shall be carried out as my own and you will have one of the mightiest army know to exist in all the realms, dwarfed only by the armies of Heaven and Hell." Dameon turned to face the ancient man before continuing to speak. "My kingdom is your kingdom. Tomes of lost magics and troves of endless and forgotten knowledge that I have amassed are now yours. My resources are now yours to use. Be it the rare metals found only in Purgatory or the rare stone that can absorbs magic. All of it is yours to use as you see fit."

Dameon came to stand before Lucian with his slight smirk still present. "I normally wouldn't put myself below anyone's command. But you. You and I are more alike than you may think and for that I will follow you." Dameon said as he gave a slight nod to Lucian and held out his hand to shake. "Though you no doubt have a task you will want me to perform. Be it to test my skills or loyalty or most likely both. So, how may I be of service."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Lucian listened carefully as Dameon spoke. He was picking apart each and every word looking for a loophole that Dameon may have slid into the pledge of loyalty. Every word no matter how it was spoken had some meaning that everyone missed. Lucian made sure not to miss the hidden meanings. Lucian smiled when Dameon offered his army with boasts about the size. If only the man knew what Lucian had planned. An army of beasts and men was great but they could be killed. Lucian would use an army of darkness. Beings that multiplied when they were struck down. He had read about them in the Doma and he had the power to summon the army. According to the reading the order who could fight this army of darkness had faded from the realms. With them gone, no one would stop his rise.

Lucian reached out and shook Dameon's hand. "In good time all men will be tested and rewarded for their service. When I have an assignment for you, you will know." With that said Lucian released Dameon's hand and turned back to the entrance to the cave and all of the people gathered around him. He would have to give a speech wouldn't he? Lucian disliked speeches. Far too much wordplay and political motives in a speech. Actions spoke louder than words. So Lucian would make it very short. He walked to the entrance of the mountain and turned to face all before him.

"This is our home now. This mountain from which we will rule and bring balance back to the world. Inside you will find a city of stone all for you and any who bend knee to me. Past the city outside the mountain barracks will be built to house those most loyal. Beyond the dark forest I will build a city for everyone who wishes to live beyond the stones. Look at this mountain and see your future, it is yours, it is mine and from it we will rain fire upon our enemies. But first I must remove those who threaten my rule. Ellie of the Doma, and Loki of the Zaibatsu. Dameon and Grim, return to my son in Stone's Peak and capture him. Lock him away in the dungeons within in the mountain. Ensure he lives. I want him to watch this world he loves as it is stripped away and brought under my control. Bella, go to the Zaibatsu bring back all who would serve under me. Ixio, take the child into the mountain and find her a home. When I return I will have another task for you." With the orders given Lucian took one step backwards into the darkness of the entrance and he vanished from sight.

Dameon entered through the portal to see the trio still there lounging around and signaled for his men to pass through. Within moments hundreds of beings of various races and origins through out time. "Set up a base camp there and place all supplies in the cave mouth!" Dameon barked as he pointed to the empty abyss that was the entrance to Lucian's kingdom.

"Also set up individual living tents for 6. I want two of them to be fit for a king!" Dameon continued to oversee each of the activities until each of the tents had been set up. He had been relieved that only a few hours had passed in this realm.

He turned to the others, "Pick a tent. The large one next to the cave mouth is Lucian's. Also if you know whats good for you you won't enter that portal." Dameon said as he waved his men off to continue their work and made for the second largest tent and went to relax for a short bit to read his book. He had left the portal to purgatory open to continue the flow of supplies.

Seeing that alot was being done Ixio decided to follow order and find the girl a home. Putting her on his shoulders he set off towards one of the tents.I'll make sure to find a safe place for you my lil princess. When the city is finally built we can go house hunting.

"You know, thank you Lucien, for giving me the most vague instructions. Ever. I'll try and make sure to color inside the lines while I'm at it." At this point in the game, Bella Donna was tired, cranky, and needed sex. The triple threat for Lady Nightshade herself. If something wasn't done soon, she'd have to grab some poor sap off the streets and suck out the life force from him in the most...pleasurable way possible.

Her gaze turned back towards the Penugget now before ripping her eyes away from the precious creature and looked towards the others. First, she would look at Ixio and... he left, with the nugget. Cute. Not even an answer. At least she hoped to be chatting a bit more. Unlike some people, he seemed disturbingly pleasant. And for now, she would have been pleased with that. But then she had to be disappointed, as per usual, when he left. No matter, he was nice enough, so perhaps she could learn more from this Ixio.

Bella sighed in exasperation as she looked at Dameon. Oh how she would have LOVED to rip off that little scarfy bandana off his face. And besides, the style's three seasons much too late. And by three seasons, Bella actually meant since the 1800s Spaghetti Western Era. But, who was she to judge? She shrugged and strutted past Dameon. "I'd prefer to share with the big boss hon. But if that's not the case, I'd say put me in a bedroll with a partner. I'd like the company! Preferably not from some smart talking s**t who leaves a portal open while acting all cool. But well, desperate times call for desperate measures." she snarked as she began to float upwards.

The amethyst skinned vixen was left with no choice. With no potential partner to bed, Lucien constantly avoiding her like the plague apparently and the others leaving on her, she would need to leave and pull off her orders. It was a bit offensive, something she wouldn't have let any man get away with without her sucking out their life force of course. It wasn't like she was diseased! Though after being dead for awhile, Bella now thought if he even could enjoy the more... sinful virtues.

And besides, now that she thought about it, who was she even supposed to bring with her back here? What did she need to do? There were so many options of solving one simple question, but at the same time, with the Zaibatsu, she would have a bit of a hard time manipulating them. So many questions that had no answer, and Bella hated that. She was always thinking five steps ahead, and to be this uninformed was a literal recipe for disaster. That was, unless she used her darkness. Well, I guess I could stay with the insufferable twatwaffle that is the mysterious bandana man. She looked back, fixing deep golden eyes onto the figure, sensing the darkness.

NAH. ******** this, I'm out. No, she wasn't that desperate. At least, not yet of course.

With that she opened a portal and floated right though it, the darkness seeping out for a bit. For a moment, the inky blackness stayed put, before finally, it disappeared from sight.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Lucian reappeared moments after Bella vanished. Poor timing on his part. In one hand he had a rag and in the other a sword splashed with blood. He looked around to see who had returned and who had staid behind. Lucian himself had looked in the dungeon for a moment so brief that no one would have seen or heard him. He had a degree of faith in his soldiers, but they had not been with him long enough for trust. Lucian sat down on a boulder near the mouth of the mountain and he began cleaning off the blade with the rag. He took a quick glance at the tents that Dameon had his men setting up.
"Why are there two fit for a king?" Lucian asked as he returned his focus to cleaning his sword. He was acting as if nothing had really happened of note. As if they had not taken his son prisoner and killed the only one who had a claim to the Doma's throne in a matter of hours. Given a year, they would do so much more.
