"Oh yes! He adores Henry. Why, when I first introduced them to each other, he wept openly without shame, as he always wanted a feline companion to call his and was touched deeply by Henry's tolerant nature. Since Henry is clever and adapted to magical sorts, and raised in Hell, he is not repulsed by Micolash's otherworldly aura. I dare say it was one of my best decisions thus far! He is a friend and teacher to dear Micolash's troubled spirit." Abysa leads Adia out back into the maze-like halls of the 'dungeon', floating along at a walking pace as he speaks. While still seeming a little nervous, with the way he will pick at the hems of his sleeves, the demon's mood has improved considerably.
This walk is not as long as the one from the portaling room to the kitchen, though they do make a couple of turns through the halls that make gauging their location in comparison to each other difficult. As they continue, the overall feel of the place seems to grow warmer and more lived-in. There are long rugs stretching down the floor, sometimes a faded painting or two is encountered on the walls, and the doors all appear to be in better shape too. Even the air feels decidedly less cold and uninviting!
The hall of their destination is the nicest of all, all of the decor is new, from colourful rugs to hanging pictures of varying landscapes, some resembling earth's scenery, some more fantastic in nature. The sconces glow with a warmer light as they activate from Abysa's proximity. And finally, they arrive at a particular door. Unlike the others, the door appears to be made of metal, with a variety of locks on the outside (none are locked at the moment), and well-sealed. It's a bit of a comical sight in comparison to the little cat-door that is directly next to it. One with a flap and everything.
"I hope you do not mind... I did want him to watch over dear Micolash, and so we will be in his room. I did make sure it was spacious, and his bed is curtained."
