Egh . . . that’s it?

[BONUS]

In reality, these balls are a form of sacrificial ritual, where the Asuka siphon a tiny fraction from the life force of every guest to feed their unnatural health and youth for the next years to come.

The guests feel mildly exhausted after the event, but who wouldn't be after so much laughter, dancing, and feasting?

Serenia, a masterful warlock, has secretly dedicated herself to Faz'nur'thoon, the ancient winged spider-like entity the size of a city with immense power, searching for life force to sustain its eternal hunger.

Her former assassin-turned-husband Ravos was inducted into the ancient ritual centuries ago after slaying Serenia's first and last master, the only warlock ever to dare to take on the immense entity as his patron.

The Asukas have no children and don't intend to give up their standing, wealth, and immortality for centuries to come.
