He began to back away from the hall, towards the columns lining the building. I followed after him, watching as his tall back shielded me from being seen by anyone else. I was still protected by his cloak of darkness but I believed there was a possibility of other high demons finding me hard to recognize and suspecting something really off about me so I tried to blend in, walking at a normal pace until he stopped and turned back to look at me, his cloak swirling around his body as his eyes narrowed at me.
"What the hell are you doing?"
I said nothing in reply, just watched as he stopped before me and roughly grabbed me by the arm.
"I see how much value you have for your life."
