…Of course, I was not volunteering to deal with Zehhurozzm either. His magic is far beyond mine. He would rip me to spatial threads in an instant. Not only does he have his innate warping magic, but he’s also acquired quite a magical arsenal over his endless life. I doubt even Seth Warren could— Ah, that’s an idea, no? We could see about getting Seth’s help. You knew him before he was a demon, right, Twain? Of course, there’s the logistical problem of getting an Amaymonian demon out of the Necropolis… but he is the Black Queen Cole’s right-hand man—er, demon, yes? She could turn him into a sort of boogieman.
Perhaps easier said than done, of course. And I don’t quite know how receptive the Black Queen Cole would be to such an offer. I never knew her personally in life, and I’ve only briefly seen her in his passing at the Gates of Hell. She seems… affable… enough. Though, I have heard stories that would say otherwise. Though we wouldn’t even necessarily need her seal of approval. There are other ways to summon demons, of course. Though typically, those methods have been refined for specific High Demons, I’m sure we could work something out to conjure the demon Warren to our aid.
Warren or not, we’ll need some sort of plan if we intend to visit the Great Ape’s lair. We could attempt a trade, though information never comes cheap from Zeh. And the worst case, one or more of the Sebitti are already in his collection. In that case, we’re better off letting Fenrir attack Zeh directly. I’m not sure if Fenrir could actually overpower Zeh or not… though I do suppose he’s becoming known as quite the Elder killer, no?
