Draiss smiled blandly. "Are you sure? Heard from them recently? Besides, if they are somehow still alive to complain, just point out I am bigger than they are, and ask how the rebuilding of their fortress is going."<br/><br/>He hadn't dealt with them, yet, but it would be fairly simple, as long as she went in the direction he mentioned. Nothing more powerful than a lesser demon lord, and he could get a handful of death squads to deal with the troublesome lord in a short while. Just because he could be nice down here didn't mean it would go unpunished, so he had to work an evil action into it somehow. As soon as she agreed to the direction he suggested, he had two small task forces assaulting the two fortresses that might object, allowing her to assimilate the survivors.
