You shouldn't need to stay in the upper planes, once you're a celestial, you should be good to do whatever corruption free, if not there's other ways to deal with it, IF this works
Atemos sighs. This is complicated.
Yeah, not even sure if your pact idea will work ot not, but its so you don't need to die.
Hm. Have you ever been to the Hells?
No, only upper planes & here.
We might need to pay Xorius a visit.
After. You first, okay?
Mine’s not as important… don’t worry about me.
Why on the earth do you think we're doing this in the first place?

*Pretty good. I walked my cat today.*
Atemos sits near Azazel and orders food. “Yo.”
*oooo, fun.*
"Hey, hows it going. Ya kinda just, blipped away earlier" he says.
“Sorry. Something came up.” Atemos leaned forward. “How much do you know about the Abyss?”
"Is it cause of that girl?" He asks, before shrugging, "The abyss? Well, its where most demons live or are reformed. There are layers to it, which each demon lord controls one of."
Atemos is acting weird but he always acts weird tbh.
"Symbiosis? One sentient being in another is rarely symbiosis... Why would you want to be a god?"
“So I can help Calius. We can finally be at the same power level..”
"Atemos... Power isnt something that should be sought like that... It leads to danger, and further mental harm.... Wouldnt helping Calius very possibly lead to the destruction of many of your other friends?"
“Why would Calius kill my friends? The only one he hates is Eris, and Eris can’t die.”

She nods "Hes kind. He actually helps people. Unlike them, hes no killer. And he doesnt think himself greater than others"
Soldaer smiles. "That is true of more nobles than you think, E. Szaren is not a once-in-a-lifetime example of that. You've had bad dealings with corrupt ones, but many aren't corrupt." He smiles wryly. "Including myself, E. Yes, I am a noble, and have had dealings with the corrupt ones before. Even helped dethrone a couple." He chuckles. "Soldaer Torrae, crown prince of the Twilight Elves. That is who I am, and you never even knew it."
She seems... Surprised, but is mostly keeping calm "Then... Youre being lied to by the people of your same status. I KNOW what things are like. Ive been on the streets. The parts they want ignored and glossed over. Ive lived what they lie about. Almost every noble is corrupt, murderous, and horrible"
Soldaer chuckles and shakes his head sadly. "You trust me, right E? Then let me show you. No, I'm not talking about a trip to my homeworld. I'm talking about letting you see my memories; my dealings with the other nobles."
"Remembering lies youve been told?"
"Not lies, and I won't hide any of it from you E. I know you well enough that you would find out if I hid or presented an altered memory to you."
"You wouldnt alter it... They would be lying to you within the memories"
"Don't underestimate the power of the mind, E. It is possible to alter what I show people, but I won't because I trust you, and I know you trust me, even after that rather shocking truth about myself." He chuckles and extends a hand. "What do you say, E? Will you allow me to show you the truth; that not all nobles are the horrible monsters you've believed?"
"Soldaer... I cant believe that. No matter what you show me, I cant believe lies such as that. Lies many are raised believing"
Soldaer snorts softly, then sighs, sitting back down. "Fine. Then let me tell you of the nobles of my people, at the least, of my parents, the ones who raised me to be as I am." Soldaer takes another drink before continuing. "My parents, the king and queen, have always been fair and just rulers. Yes, they acknowledge the power they wield, but never have they let it go to their heads. They walked among the common people regularly, and even know many by name, including their families. My mother is a powerful mage, and my father a fearsome warrior. They raised me to be a warrior to protect our people, but above all, to BE one of our people, and I'm not talking about being a noble. I mean to be a Twilight Elf, to be able to mingle with those who aren't noble as easily and as comfortably as those of nobility."
"And their secrets? You havent seen any of those yet?"
Soldaer looks straight into her eyes, his pale green eyes piercing. "E, there aren't any. There's no deep dark secrets, no skeletons in the closet. The biggest secret we have is that my father doesn't like meat." Soldaer laughs. "E, I'm a good judge of character, and you know that. I spent much of my life with my parents, so I had plenty of time to find those secrets. There aren't any."
"Everyone has secrets. Noble or not, theres always at least one thing we dont want anyone to ever find out. Everyone has darkness.... If someone doesnt seem like they do, theyre hiding it. Either unintentionally, or through lies and deceit."
"E... The only secret I really have kept is my identity as a noble because I don't like the attention it usually brings. My family is the same. We don't keep secrets, because such things can make people suspicious."
"Soldaer.. I understand not telling people your social class immediately. That, I can respect you for. But... Dont lie to me. We all have secrets. I have them... Every person has them. No real person is completely honest and transparent on everything."
"E, I have never lied to you about anything. I value your friendship too much to cheapen it by lying or keeping secrets from you."
*Feel free to roll insight.*
"... That doesnt mean youve said absolutely everything. Everyone has secrets. Everyone real has things only they know."
"I've told you the only secrets I really have, one, I do really like you, perhaps even love you, but I won't dare do anything to jeopardize our friendship. Two, I spilled my guts about the one other person I have ever fallen for back in Sigil. And three, I just told you my single biggest secret: my nobility."
"Soldaer... People are an iceberg. People all make mustakes and have some darkness... Youve never told me of what may be the darkest thing youve done. Your greatest mistake in life. Everyone has one.... Im not saying you should tell me, or that Id want to hear it currently, but.... Everyone has one"
Soldaer shakes his head. "E..." He starts, but pauses. "Hang on, we were talking about nobles, not me. How'd we get here? My nobility was it?" He shrugs. "No matter. My point still stands, even if you don't agree. Not all nobles are the horrible monster that Joshua was. You should at least meet them, especially considering we're trying to help Valitya, before you pass judgment, E."

Azazel is having breakfast, eating waffles and hashbrowns
Kai is constructing something at a table, humming to himself
[Open slot for now]
*Pretty good. I walked my cat today.*
Atemos sits near Azazel and orders food. “Yo.”
*oooo, fun.*
"Hey, hows it going. Ya kinda just, blipped away earlier" he says.
“Sorry. Something came up.” Atemos leaned forward. “How much do you know about the Abyss?”
"Is it cause of that girl?" He asks, before shrugging, "The abyss? Well, its where most demons live or are reformed. There are layers to it, which each demon lord controls one of."
“I can get you one of those layers, for a price. You’ll have the power to defeat your enemies and the resources to protect your friends.”
"Which layer, and who would i need to.... remove."
“Mine. I would be handing it to you.”
Azazel tilts his head slightly, "Wha? Does that mean i need to um... kill you? Or is it like a buisness transaction."
Atemos smiled. “No, you don’t need to kill me. I’d just need some information. Then I’ll hand it over. No bloodshed necessary.”

She nods "Hes kind. He actually helps people. Unlike them, hes no killer. And he doesnt think himself greater than others"
Soldaer smiles. "That is true of more nobles than you think, E. Szaren is not a once-in-a-lifetime example of that. You've had bad dealings with corrupt ones, but many aren't corrupt." He smiles wryly. "Including myself, E. Yes, I am a noble, and have had dealings with the corrupt ones before. Even helped dethrone a couple." He chuckles. "Soldaer Torrae, crown prince of the Twilight Elves. That is who I am, and you never even knew it."
She seems... Surprised, but is mostly keeping calm "Then... Youre being lied to by the people of your same status. I KNOW what things are like. Ive been on the streets. The parts they want ignored and glossed over. Ive lived what they lie about. Almost every noble is corrupt, murderous, and horrible"
Soldaer chuckles and shakes his head sadly. "You trust me, right E? Then let me show you. No, I'm not talking about a trip to my homeworld. I'm talking about letting you see my memories; my dealings with the other nobles."
"Remembering lies youve been told?"
"Not lies, and I won't hide any of it from you E. I know you well enough that you would find out if I hid or presented an altered memory to you."
"You wouldnt alter it... They would be lying to you within the memories"
"Don't underestimate the power of the mind, E. It is possible to alter what I show people, but I won't because I trust you, and I know you trust me, even after that rather shocking truth about myself." He chuckles and extends a hand. "What do you say, E? Will you allow me to show you the truth; that not all nobles are the horrible monsters you've believed?"
"Soldaer... I cant believe that. No matter what you show me, I cant believe lies such as that. Lies many are raised believing"
Soldaer snorts softly, then sighs, sitting back down. "Fine. Then let me tell you of the nobles of my people, at the least, of my parents, the ones who raised me to be as I am." Soldaer takes another drink before continuing. "My parents, the king and queen, have always been fair and just rulers. Yes, they acknowledge the power they wield, but never have they let it go to their heads. They walked among the common people regularly, and even know many by name, including their families. My mother is a powerful mage, and my father a fearsome warrior. They raised me to be a warrior to protect our people, but above all, to BE one of our people, and I'm not talking about being a noble. I mean to be a Twilight Elf, to be able to mingle with those who aren't noble as easily and as comfortably as those of nobility."
"And their secrets? You havent seen any of those yet?"
Soldaer looks straight into her eyes, his pale green eyes piercing. "E, there aren't any. There's no deep dark secrets, no skeletons in the closet. The biggest secret we have is that my father doesn't like meat." Soldaer laughs. "E, I'm a good judge of character, and you know that. I spent much of my life with my parents, so I had plenty of time to find those secrets. There aren't any."
"Everyone has secrets. Noble or not, theres always at least one thing we dont want anyone to ever find out. Everyone has darkness.... If someone doesnt seem like they do, theyre hiding it. Either unintentionally, or through lies and deceit."
"E... The only secret I really have kept is my identity as a noble because I don't like the attention it usually brings. My family is the same. We don't keep secrets, because such things can make people suspicious."
"Soldaer.. I understand not telling people your social class immediately. That, I can respect you for. But... Dont lie to me. We all have secrets. I have them... Every person has them. No real person is completely honest and transparent on everything."
"E, I have never lied to you about anything. I value your friendship too much to cheapen it by lying or keeping secrets from you."
*Feel free to roll insight.*
"... That doesnt mean youve said absolutely everything. Everyone has secrets. Everyone real has things only they know."
"I've told you the only secrets I really have, one, I do really like you, perhaps even love you, but I won't dare do anything to jeopardize our friendship. Two, I spilled my guts about the one other person I have ever fallen for back in Sigil. And three, I just told you my single biggest secret: my nobility."
"Soldaer... People are an iceberg. People all make mustakes and have some darkness... Youve never told me of what may be the darkest thing youve done. Your greatest mistake in life. Everyone has one.... Im not saying you should tell me, or that Id want to hear it currently, but.... Everyone has one"
Soldaer shakes his head. "E..." He starts, but pauses. "Hang on, we were talking about nobles, not me. How'd we get here? My nobility was it?" He shrugs. "No matter. My point still stands, even if you don't agree. Not all nobles are the horrible monster that Joshua was. You should at least meet them, especially considering we're trying to help Valitya, before you pass judgment, E."
"... I can try, but I know how theyll be.... The same horrible excuses for people that call people street rats."
"I will gladly go with you, E. You know that. You are one of my closest friends. I will be by your side no matter what."
"Thank you... Ill... Definitely get to the point of helping her back to the tavern.."
Soldaer nods, smiling slightly, with a determined gleam in his eyes. "Where do we begin?"
You shouldn't need to stay in the upper planes, once you're a celestial, you should be good to do whatever corruption free, if not there's other ways to deal with it, IF this works
Atemos sighs. This is complicated.
Yeah, not even sure if your pact idea will work ot not, but its so you don't need to die.
Hm. Have you ever been to the Hells?
No, only upper planes & here.
We might need to pay Xorius a visit.
After. You first, okay?
Mine’s not as important… don’t worry about me.
Why on the earth do you think we're doing this in the first place?
To help you?
*my god, could it post my posts please?*
No! it's only so you don't DIE just for trying to not be a demon anymore, I'm throwing away my title as an Angel once all this is done
