"She isn't alone this time. I don't know the lengths, but one of them is a formidable Paladin <sneers>. Another is a Minotaur. I didn't get a good look at their magic user, but they have one, and one of them is an abomination of the same race as Lady Glimmer. They're not to be underestimated."
"Is that how you lost your arm then, oh most Low?" chuckles can be heard in the background.
"This is no laughing matter. If our designs are to come to fruition, a collaborative effort WILL be necessary."
"How shameful, a Balor asking for assistence. This favor will cost you DEARLY," speaks a shrill voice.
"It will cost YOU dearly to NOT act. Who here can claim a limb of MINE!"
And with that, the congregation falls silent.

Also meanwhile:
"Hey Lenos, any chance you could lower the tower a bit? I know the current elevation is useful against intruders, but we seem to be in a good spot with Port Barry, and their defenses more than compensate for any disadvantage of lowering the building," Thez says brightly.
"Wut now?" he sighs, and lights another cigarette. "I suppose, but don't start thinking I'm just going to go along with your schemes. You still owe me that fly," he says with a wink.
"Oh, you're right now that I think about it," she says, a little dejected. She reaches into her hair and pulls out the ebony fly and holds it out to him, her palm open.
"A deal is a deal," she says with an almost imperceptible twitch of her eye.
He jumps up from his chair, "A pleasure doing business with you," he says, grasping the fly.
As he does so, she clamps her hand around his.
"It would be a shame if there were any,... inconsistencies in our agreement. You understand of course," she says, growing slowly, eerily closer.
"Don't get-"
"I mean if I were to be operating outside of our agreement, you would have grounds to take offense and seek satisfaction."
She says, clamping down on his forearm with the hand that just had the fly.

Lenos' eyes narrow and he lowers his posture for leverage.
"I think you're overstepping your bounds here twat, and I'll thank you to let go of my arm," he says through gritted teeth.
"Oh am I? Overstepping my bounds am I?"
He lifts his other arm in defense as she launches a punch into his wee sternum.

Thez' punch launches him from the dais back toward where the hallway of rooms is. He bounces a couple times before rolling to his feet.
"That's gonna cost you," he begins.
"Cost. Funny you mention that," she slowly walks down from the dais. "Surely you know what comes of breaking a bargain with a devil?" she says, her eyes gleaming.
"Breaking? I don't know what you're-"
"Oh certainly not. One of such exceeding scruples as yourself would never stoop to rigging a challenge," she says, ever so slowly walking his way.
"Oh. Well. I won't speak to whatever you're talking about, not knowing of course, but I think you've come far enough."
Surprisingly, she stops.
"Tell me, what DID you offer?"
To this he thinks for a moment, quickly realizing she's talking about Infernius, the 'riding' bet, and the fact that she apparently knows about it.
He raises his hands in a shrug. "If I did know about what you mean, I'm sure it would be between that person and the other person in the situation.
"DON'T LIE TO ME!" she yells, both teleporting next to him and attempting an axe kick.

Nope, but you're fine. If a player is not pressed for time, they can take skill checks without a die roll, to allow for careful consideration and progress (there are exceptions, but for the most part).

Thez's kick lands, stunning him momentarily
"Surely you know what comes to those who violate an agreement with a devil," she taunts, her tail caressing him almost like a cat's.
"You must know, I'm entitled to a pound of flesh," she begins, savoring the moment.
He regains coordination and stands upright. Since his cigarette was lost, he lights a new one.
"Come get some you twisted she-bitch. You don't know what you're in for," he says, pulling the metal cylinder from his belt.

What is about to ensue is a fight that has been on hold for a very long time, through multiple resets. GM advises players to maintain a safe distance. I'll be narrating this fight as though each player were independent of the GM, so that players can see illustrated the potential precision that can be applied to fights.

L> cast Dimensional Lock
"Whoops, where are you going to turn now?"
T> cast Protection from Energy - Fire

Lenos's cylinder erupts with red energy (you've seen nu Star Wars yeh? It looks like that.) as Thez darts toward him.
In a shower of sparks and energy (Thez and Lenos have several fields operating permanently, in addition to those just cast), they begin to fight. Several blows are extended (from T) while Lenos blocks and evades, showing a curious dexterity (another SW reference, think Yoda v Palpatine).
Thez strikes at him repeatedly, but most of her attacks are glancing, ineffective, or outright miss. Only a few make contact.

Several invisible/imperceivable fields about Thez pop, or wink out of existence. As this happens, she pulls a weird sceptre-lookin thing from her pouch and snaps it open into the most ridiculously opulescent Kama (mini scythe) that's ever been seen (gold blade). She launches it at him, with such speed and spin that it looks in flight like a frisbee.

Lenos ducks the frisbee (barely) and enacts a binding spell. At the same time, several Thez' emerge from the 'one' and proceed toward Lenos from multiple angles.

Lenos' spell succeeds (to my surprise) and Thez is now held in a gray-ish cube of energy. Pounding can be heard from within.
"Well that was easier than I expected," he says taking another drag.

Lenos taps at the cube. "You alright in there? You need some water?" he goads.

Neither have I, desu, or at least not entirely (I just know it has something to do with Nicholas Cage as a ghost with a Flaming skull for a head, riding a motercycle and using a flaming chain whip). I just want to be able to become on fire and use a flaming whip,
like the Balor does.

By "The movie" I immediately assumed MLP. I am open to correction.

The percussion on the cube around Thez doubles in intensity, and cracks of light start to appear.

The bombardment on the cube increases. From 1.5 strikes/ second, to 2.8 strikes/second, until its up to 5.1 strikes/second. As the bombardment increases, more and more cracks appear on the surface of the cube.

Oh, he's archetypally LE, and I'm disappointed that I didn't realize it sooner. Not only is it Nic Cage but its a consequential, "reap what you sow" type character. Oh it fits, and it fits NICE.
