Eighteen - ‘X’ Marks the Spot -

After an hour, Wren seemed to be completely through the metamorphosis that’d befallen her. There were no further outward changes that anyone could detect.

She could also shift her appearance to show or hide her horns, wings, and hooves as she chose. It would allow her to appear as an everyday Cambion whenever she wished. Or she could look the part of a Demon, straight out of a storybook that Sam didn’t want to read.

Through his insistence, she kept her horns hidden at all times.

Abrah didn’t seem to know what to make of it, though Erv and Aster were both considering Wren in a different light. Sam suspected they might have the same suspicion he did.

That perhaps Wren was descended from a particular Lord of Hell. One that had united the entirety of Hell under one banner. Only to then vanish without a word or direction thousands of years after they’d consolidated their empire.

Someone Sam refused to name aloud. Even he had no desire to invoke the possibility of attracting their attention or crossing them.

Looking frustrated, and decidedly concerned, Wren stood next to Sam in her fully Cambion appearance. Aster and Abrah were standing on the other side. All four people were watching Erv, who was on her knees between the two groups.

Right now, she was using a thin, very pointed black horn to sketch out what was supposed to be a map. To Sam, it honestly just looked like some X’s, a smattering of half-circles, W’s, S’s, a vague blob-like shape, and some lines.

“This… isn’t going to work, is it?” Erv asked, pausing in her drawing.

“It…uh…I don’t really know what it’s supposed to be,” confessed Abrah, shaking her head.

“Maybe it’ll help if we establish locations,” offered Wren. “I’m assuming the X’s are locations. What’s an X that Abrah would be most likely to know?”

“Hm? Oh! Yes!” Erv said, sounding suddenly far more excited. “Thank you, Wren.”

Adjusting herself, Erv leaned forward and indicated an X with the horn.

“Okay, this here, this is the plains of Cerberus. The X is the City of the Damned,” explained Erv and then glanced up at Abrah.

“Huh. Okay. Then, is that line the river Bane?” Abrah asked, seeming more interested now. Leaning over, she pointed a finger at the strange line that ran along next to the X.

“Yes! Exactly! Okay. Running down the Bane, we cross over to the Blight range of foothills,” continued Erv, indicating a bunch of small half-circles. “This over here is the stronghold, Annulus. This is the center of Je— Skipper’s strongholds.”

“That’s… Annulus?” Abrah asked, sounding confused and concerned now.

“Yes, why?” Erv replied, looking up at the Demon-Knight.

“There’s nothing there but a hole. A massive chasm that—well, you can’t go in there. Simply passing over it will turn you into dust. Nothing survives that chasm,” Abrah explained with a firm shake of her head.

“I can’t speak to the chasm, but… that’s where Annulus stronghold is. That was the seat of Skipper’s power. Everything she did came and went from there.
