<div style="text-align: center">Questor:​</div><br/>Nyx and Midnight stayed with the little angel till she grew tired herself and crawled up on to the bed with her mother and cuddled up against her. The doctor made sure she had a warm blanket to cover her. The pair of panthers then made their way to the house and they knew where Laylah would be. Nyx jumped up on the bed and and laid down beside Laylah. Midnight found Dante and laid down on the floor beside the bed. "She all tucked in with her parents?" Dante asked as he reached down and stroked Midnights head. He grunted and Dante chuckled. "I take that as a yes." It was not long before he fell asleep. His body needed the sleep to recover. The sleep in the Carriage was not the most beneficial as Laylah had said. In the morning he awoke still a bit stiff, and he knew he would not be flying for a while still.<br/><br/>Below he could smell the delicious aroma of food being cooked. It made his stomach rumble. "Well a good meal to start the day off is a good thing." he looked down at Midnight. The two went down to find the brothers placing plates on the table as a couple slaves were bringing in the food and placing it on the table. It was simple fare of bacon and eggs, fresh bread and butter, but it smelled divine. He looked at the two brothers, "I assume this is what the slaves are being fed?" Both looked at him smiling, and nodded. Yes t hey were slaves, his slaves, but that did not mean he would feed them slop as many did. They had to be strong and healthy to mine the gold. He looked after his slaves, perhaps with a materialistic motive, but also he was more humane then other Demons, something he learned from his father.<br/><br/>Up stairs Nyx rose and jumped off the bed as a couple slaves stood outside the chamber. "I tell you she has tamed the evil within him. How else could a Demon Lord be so, so, nice. I have seen how they treat slaves when I go on the transport run with some others. It is horrible. You remember how the Supervisor took pleasure in making us misserable. But him, he is so different, and she is an Angel. How else can you explain it." One of them whispered to the other.<br/><br/>"I have to agree with you on that." the other whispered back. "He put the brothers in charge and they are Angels as well. Demons hate them, yet he put them in charge over the demon guards! And now he has brought a family of them here. Others would have killed them instantly! I don't care what she has done to him, I like it." Then the man knocked on the door frame to see if Laylah was awake. Nyx stood there eyeing the pair and they did not dare to enter until Laylah was awake and bid them to enter.<br/><br/>Back in Porta, the Capital of the Demon lands, Valkar and a human spoke in private at Valkar's large home, on a hillside overlooking the city. "Is everything progressing as planned." Valkar asked the human.<br/><br/>"Yes it is. Scouts have fanned out looking for the mines and we have found,trees that are rare and their wood expensive that we can cut and sell. None will know of our operation in the contested lands till it is to late." the human told Valkar. "We will both be filthy rich and you will have the power you need to control the Council."
