Pike POV

I opened my eyes and find myself in that same empty void from before, but something felt off about this place now.

Pike: Everlight? Everlight, it-it's me. Pike!

I looked around before I saw a glimpse of my amulet crack which made me wince and close my eyes.

Pike: If I've ever needed you, it's now.

Everlight: Pike trickfoot.

I turned around as the void instantly brightened up to reveal the Everlight, the goddess I remain faithful to.

Pike: I felt weak the moment we entered the hells, I need to know you're still-

Everlight: Child, Redemption does not exist in the realm of the damned. The hells of Despath are forbidden.

Pike: But why? If we find Zerxus, we'll-we'll get the vestige we need.

Everlight: Your soul is precious. There are those in hell who would use it for wicked aims. Ignore my words and you will find yourself alone.

She slowly began to fade away as I began to run after her and reaching out to her.

Pike: What does that mean? Everlight? Wait! Please! 

She fully disappeared, leaving me alone in the void but I looked down to notice a hooded figure standing there, watching me as I received a rush of visions flowing through my mind, making me gasp in shock before I felt a hand on my shoulder.

Grog: Pike, I was calling your name.

Pike: Oh, uh. I was just making sure we're being looked out for.

Grog: Ohhh, your goddess got our backs?

Pike: Yeah, sure does.

I looked forward, frowning to myself completely unsure of whether the Everlight was still on our side or not.

Grog: Good, cause to pull this off, we're gonna need all kinds of miracles.

3rd POV

Yamikumo, Vax and Keyleth flew down while Pike and Scanlan were carried by Grog down to the ground, The group immediately took cover and watched as the demons fed on the souls of the damned in the outskirts of the city.

Vax: There it is. the City of Dis. 

Keyleth: Okay, how we gonna do this? Everyone down there is either a demon or is getting eaten by one.

Vax: We certainly don't look like we belong in hell. 

Yamikumo: That's it! Scanlan, you thinking what I'm thinking.

Scanlan immediately smiled and pulled out his lute before he casts his spell.

Scanlan: 🎶 Let's get in costumes, Let's get in make up, Let's get scary as hell! 🎶

He sang as purple mist began to surround everyone, turning them all into demons as they looked at themselves, admiring their disguises and how life like they were.

Pike: Whoa.

Vax: Fuck yes.

Keyleth: Bigger antlers!
