"But WHY does she want them to head into the Labyrinthian?! Why can she just not come out here instead?!"

"I have no idea, Klaki. I do not know nor will I ever know what goes on inside of Lilith's head, and I most certainly will never understand why she does things the way she does them instead of the way we do them. She is simply ancient and eccentric, a combination we are both familiar with."
Vapor rolled out of the Duchess' mouth as she let out a huff, though she finally closed her eyes and relented as she fell back into her seat and allowed the room to return to its normal temperature, though I was more than happy to let it be.
"Still not happy with it... nothing is ever simple with that Demoness. Nothing."
