Dantalion of the Goetia: Taste the Obsession of a Demon

"What are thee conjuring? I beg ye tell me!" Andromalius prodded.

"When thou art settled into our rightful chambers safe within the Realm of Goetia, thy will tell thee," Belial flashed an evil glare. "We should catch up to our legions."

The others far ahead, Belial and Andromalius found their armies waiting for them in the forest. Rowan, now governing Dantalion's thirty six legions, was unsettled being the leader of such a magnitude of demons. King Vine, Count Druitte, Prince Sitri and Count Halphas knew the way to the Realm of Goetia well, and accompanied Rowan and the armies, daylight disappearing into the night sky.

"What the hell am I supposed to do with seventy one demons of the Goetia?" Rowan asked Count Druitte and the others.

"Rowan, we know your allegiance was for the girl," Count Halphas told him. "By the way, I hear from my brother thee hath escaped the fires of the first heaven. Did you bring back the girl?"

"Dantalion sacrificed his life for her. She has been restored…at...the…Courtyard. She is still at the Courtyard!" Rowan howled.

"I did not see the girl anywhere in the Courtyard, my brother," Count Druitte told him.

"What about you, Prince Sitri, did you see her?"

"Nay, I saw only demons."

"Dantalion has ascended to the third heaven, but he must be watching over her as guardian. Wasn't that his sole purpose, to save the girl?" Rowan asked his armies.

"I believe the four of us can call upon Lord Dantalion for protection as we are now mortal," King Vine added.

"Laurel knows that she can do the same. She couldn't live a day without him in her normal life," Rowan added sarcastically, trying to block everything out. "Let's move."

Darkness approached as the armies came to the North gate of the Realm of Goetia, the moon settling above the trees.

"So how do we get past this huge stone wall? Rowan looked perplexed.

"I once held the power to discover things hidden. There, upon the stone…the master sigil," King Vine pointed to the intricately marked seal on the gate. "I believe Lord Dantalion used his fire powers to align with it."

As they were plotting entry into the Realm, Belial approached.

"Tell us why we are led by this half-demon?" Belial scowled.

"Because I'm the only one who knows the way here!" Rowan barked.
