XLIX: Death Rising

A devil with grey skin wandered to the wide expanse of a cavern. This devil was none other than Blackteeth. He managed to sneak away when his master fell asleep. He was smart just like that. Although he disliked exploring new places because he is in fact a scaredy-cat, the three queens and his master gave him assurance of safety.

"Stupid Strygians!" Blackteeth couldn't help but giggle to himself. He was so sneaky that those plant creatures did not even noticed him reach their inner sanctum. There were so many shiny things in the inner sanctum and he could only carry a dozen.

"Speaking of which--Where is Night?" Kzel scratched his head while scanning the area for any sign of the little creature.

"I bet he ran away!" Aviree mumbled.

Kzel did not mind. He was just thankful that he did not undergone deep sleep and only ended in a nap. He was a Rzir after all, centuries of sleep is considered a nap for his kind.
