Asphodel slinks out of the trees holding a violin. It's made of a black wood for the most part, but has parts of pure gold on it. The Sigil of Bael is on the side. Asphodel leans against a tree and waits for Spider. There's a flash of green distortion as Spider appears, she flashes a grin at Asphodel and gestures at the violin, "Now that's a nice looking violin."

"Make yourself comfy, this'll be the longest two minutes of your life," she chuckles to herself, readying the violin under her chin.

Spider leans against the nearest tree watching Asphodel, "I'll admit that this wasn't the kinda scenario I was expecting to hear those words, but I'm looking forward to it"

"That comes after," Asphodel winks, "Ready?"

"Yep"

Asphodel takes a deep breath, and begins to play. Spider's tail starts to wag slowly as she listens, after the song finishes she winks at Asphodel and claps, "I can see why you played it so much, it's good, not a huge fan of the name though. But you killed that"

Asphodel grins and sets the violin down, "Thanks"

Spider returns the grin and pushes off the tree, taking a step towards Asphodel, "So you said Bael made that for you?"

"Yeah, I was telling him about how I played violin and he knew about the fire so he decided to make one"

"That's certainly interesting, so you're high up in Heresy hierarchy then?" Spider's tail is still wagging slowly.

"Not enough people for there to really be a hierarchy. There's maybe around 3 or 4 hundred? Counting people who aren't from Heresy that stay in the hotel"

"That's still a lot of people but I get your point," Spider chuckles, "You know how weird this is? I'm actually finding this interesting and I have no idea how to feel about that"

"Really?"

Spider shrugs, "Yeah I mean why wouldn't it be interesting? Asides from Abaddon an' all that.."

"Abaddon sucks ass. Same with Lucifer. Down there I'd be killed for saying that."

"I can't say I'm surprised, and I agree, well Lucifer I don't really have specific reason to hate them yet asides from the obvious, though Abaddon? I'd say he can go rot but I'm pretty sure he's already doing so"

"They have some extremist philosophy that our Hell was created to end Worlds, so that's what they're doing. It sucks. Only cool Princes either suck up or get killed." Asphodel thinks a moment, before shrugging and exhaling, "Except for that guy who sticks around in Limbo. Guess he kind of just. Claimed? The title of Prince? Not sure, but he's the only one who acts like one. He doesn't agree with Lucifer and Abaddon's rule and goes against their will. Limbo's the safest layer of our Hell because of him."

"Yeah but since when did 'ending worlds' including impersonating a dead ex or impaling someone or any of the other countless things he's done?" Spider sighs, shaking her head, "Trauma aside, tell me more about this limbo guy"

"He kind of just showed up one day. No one knows where he came from. Rumor has it he had some sort of agreement with Lucifer and the other Princes... he watches over both Limbo and the Lake, protecting them both. I've never met him, but he goes by The Chariot."

"Like the tarot card?" Spider tilts her head slightly.

"Uhhh maybe? I've never really been too into stuff like that"

"Yeah I wasn't either until a bunch of the group got given them," Spider chuckles, "Though when I say into it I'm more interested in why we have them, rather than tarot itself"

"Weird. Well, he also goes by the name Lucky sometimes. He has a lot of names."

"I'll bear that in mind, thank you Asphodel."
