A rip appears in the abyss, and Eclipse steps through. After a quick glance back through the rip he's made, Eclipse slices at it, sealing it. Stretching his wings, Eclipse pushes himself off the ground with one powerful flap, and flies towards his mother's home, desiring to speak with her.

As Eclipse flies towards the home of Demetria and Bael, he can notice a lot of activity from the demons below and a considerable number of other demons flying back and forth from different locations in the Abyss.
Upon reaching his mother's home he finds Bael there, bellowing orders at a group of demons. "And tell Bolwrath to get off his fat ass and get ready to move!"

Eclipse frowns. There's little love between himself and Bael, and he'd rather avoid his mother's favorite toy, but there's no helping it. "Bael!" Eclipse calls, "I wish to speak with my mother, is she here?"

Bael turns his attention to Eclipse in a little surpise, wondering what brought Eclipse back. "No, your mother is at the gateway speaking with that Shima. What brings you here now?"

"None of your business," mumbles Eclipse as he draws his sword and cuts a passage to where his mother is currently, passes though, and seals it behind him in one swift motion.

Soon enough, another rip appears in the hall, and Eclipse steps through, pulling his mother along with him, and then he seals the rip with another slice. Sheathing his sword, he speaks to his mother, "Looks like you had already lost control on the situation back there. You can try again later, when there's no other distractions."

"You didn't help!" Demetria shrieked, claws flexing with rage. She'd never strike Eclipse, though; he was her favorite offspring. She settled for just making threatening motions and postures until she could sink her claws into something else. Maybe Bael.
"And don't ever grab me like that again!" she hissed. "Now what in the nine hells and all of the Abyss is so important?"

"Omnium approached me recently, and gave me an offer. It seems Odin, some god from another pantheon, is arranging a fighting tournament with three fighters from each pantheon, and Omnium offered a seat to me, but," Eclipse takes a breath, "I have to know if you intend to use this event for some other purpose before I accept the offer, or even debate accepting it at all."

Demetria's temper simmers down at that. Well, well, well...
She paces, thinking, tail twitching. "Bael and I are on the eve of launching our attack on Shangri-la. We've gotten promised help from outside the pantheon; we stand a good chance of winning this... Especially if Omnium is out of the picture. And if you turn him down, he'll have to take someone else out of the equation.." She smirked a little. "Your strength is needed here, striking our enemies down."

Eclipse nodded. "I thought you'd be interested. I'll make up some excuse later, but there's another thing I wish to speak to you about. I found a... rather interesting mortal."

"Oh?" Demetria looked mildly interested at this. She knew mortals could sometimes be very alluring and exotic. She'd bedded more than a few, both living and spiritual. "If you wish to have her as a pet, I don't mind."

"I doubt she'd be willing to be a mere 'pet', and I'm not sure I want her to be, either."

Demetria frowned, irritation quickly cropping up again. "Well what do you want, blast it?"

"I don't know yet," admits Eclipse, "I just thought I'd give you the warning."

"I don't care what you do with her," Demetria grumbled. "Love her, abuse her, use her, or convert her, it's up to you." She gave an irritated little tail twist. "BAEL! How are the preparations with the other demons coming along? The endeavor with Shima failed," she growled.
