Beneath Adorare’s flowering tree, Kael holds the five newborn divine presences while Svetlana and General Raye remain nearby. Golden blossoms drift around their solemn circle.
A flare of black-red fire blooms high above the distant gates of Bliss. Beyond their radiant threshold, a young adult fallen angel descends, pale-faced beneath dark curling hair, her broad white wings marked by Hell’s shadow.
Kael Umal
What do you want?
Jay
I am Jay, an envoy from Malrec, an evil god beyond your gates. My master offers me as the ultimate tribute to your power.
No evil creatures are allowed in Bliss. Kael holds his ground while the Erinyes approaches him slowly. Seductively. Raye’s hand settles near her sword, but Svetlana keeps her attention on the infants.
Kael Umal
At what price? There's always a price when dealing with devils and those from the lower planes.
Jay
The price is an alliance. If conflict breaks out, he will aid you and you will aid him. Simple. I am here to seal the deal.

Accept or reject Malrec and the Erinyes' offer
“Kael laughs and tells Jay to go away, but Jay informs Kael that Malrec threatened her life and told her that if she and Kael didn't have intimate relations, he (Malrec) would destroy her.”
SUCCESS (Legendary Willpower, rolled -1)
Kael laughs softly.
Kael Umal
Go away, Jay. I reject Malrec’s offer, and I will not bargain with threats against you.
Jay
“He threatened my life, my lord. He said that if you and I did not become intimate, he would destroy me.”
Kael and the others ponder her situation for a moment and Kael, in his infinite benevolence, suggests that the fallen angel be given sanctuary in Bliss. However, his very own laws and nature will not allow evil creatures into the divine realm.
It is suggested that the Erinyes be cleansed of her wickedness if possible. Perhaps a powerful spell or ritual.
General Raye
There is a way I heard spoken of by the priestesses in Bliss. A cleansing ceremony.
Jay
If this is possible...I would worship you forever. I will be your shadow for eternity, my Lord.
Kael begins talks with his top priestesses, the blonde priestess, Ellen and the red haired priestess, Alyson. They inform him that the ceremony is not only possible, but has been performed before.
