At the sound of the familiar voice behind him, the demon king let out a sigh. Truthfully, though, he was actually pretty glad to see this particular individual. "I think they're desperate. They're like a group of problem children looking for attention for every little thing they do in the most unappealing way." Turning to face the green-eyed demon, he offered a slight smile, though he tried to switch back to a more serious expression considering the situation. "I can't say that I really understand them that much. Even their sacrifice staying with us below only speaks gibberish as far as I can tell. You didn't see the servant who discovered this by any chance, did you? We should make sure to get their account as well at some point..."

Left turn, straight down, not the next, but the right after that... 
"...Where is this?" 

One would think, that after months of getting stuck in the same hallway loops, that it would be easy to find the servants' quarters again from most of the main part of the castle. And yet, it never seemed to stick quite right! There was always that one door, or that window design, or that odd ornament that just happened to look just similar enough to the one in another hallway to completely confuse her. It was enough to drive any young demon crazy. "Why? I don't need this! I'm already done with this morning! I just want that break I was promised!" Clenching both fists in irritation, Amaryllis turned toward the next door she came across in the hope of finding some way out of the hall she had gotten lost in. 

Instead, what she got was handed a bunch of sheets by another servant who was apparently running late in performing some duty and some hasty instructions to get them to a certain room down the hall before they ran off. After a second of stunned silence, the girl let out an exasperated huff before turning back to the hall she had just been trying to escape. "So much for that break...Why am I suddenly doing someone else's job?" Barely paying attention to the door as she reached it, she gave a quick knock before she entered, still muttering to herself.
