Testing the Daemon
From 'Introductions'.
Everyone makes it through the barrier (some only just but just will do) and as you gather together once more the lumen next to you begins to buzz.
The buzzing rises faster and faster until it is distorted but recognizable Gothic. "zzzz we have here? Frezzh meat. With the zztench of the Corpse-God no lezzz! You think you can claim my prizzezz do you? Well, we zzhhall zzee. My prizezz are not for the weak. Straight ahead, ignore the failurezz on the right and there is the firzzt tezzt zzzz"
The lumen stops buzzing, settling down to its normal steady glow. Pearl's face contorts. Emperors" frozen buttocks! Did a demon just stop by to invite us round for tea!"
