Of course, that is we are doing Princess Bride level of planning thinking here and it’s actually Yolg. On the other hand, it would be a greater meme if your plan is to steal me away from Richard/John. It would be new and spicy. Time will tell I suppose how this mystery will turn out.)

“Can one truly blame me for being defensive when I just got out of a hole in the ground?” She shrugged as she looked to her dream horizon. “You’re not wrong. While Dante may be a fool, someone like this Demon King you spoke of would certainly notice. “ Looking back to him she spoke again. “Let’s say what you say is the truth. How do you suggest this problem be solved?” It was unclear what she thought of the whole story. For the most part she retook the reins on her composure.

"How we must proceed first, is by knowing how this cannot be solved. The death of your husband and his reincarnation are not possible when his soul was bolstered with Perdition's poison. He will return to Yolg, and never to escape." The spirit's whispery tones travel through the air bearing dark tidings. "As will directly challenging the Demon King for his soul. There is no besting the god of that realm in his own domain. No matter how many impressive powers you may contain, all are naught in a god's domain. Worse yet, if Dante fails in ripening Lincoln for the Demon King, or if Dante claims his power for himself, he will send his Champion. That is a demon you must never face. Victory against him means eternal servitude to the Demon King, and loss means your immortal soul is fed to the dark god. Even the Champion seeks eternal release from his torment, but will not show any mercy. Such is the way of the Demon King's whims."

Myriad looks upon the spirit that threatened him, a mild curiosity compared to the nervousness its posturing was meant to create. "You must undo his life without letting him die, and without being stopped by the plane's own energy. Even with your power or the Revenant if he so desired to cleanse him, as he seems mad enough, the call of Yolg would be far too formidable to simply clean. But there is a method. An artifact of immense power from an era long gone; The Wishing Machine."
