Amayon Rejects Carl's Claim
Amayon denies owing Carl for freeing and fueling him, declares their accounts even because Ysalte died, and drops Carl and Samantha toward Sheol fire.
Story so far
Carl argues that he provided both Amayon's new strength and the world of souls required for passage. He asks the prince to order the surrounding demons away from his trapped friends in return for delivering Emberus's message.
Amayon says Carl also helped kill Ysalte, mother of his child, making them even. The divine message has already reached Emberus, so Carl has no remaining service to trade.
The prince predicts that the entire world will soon be scoured, calls Carl a likely martyr who served his god well, and tips his hand so Carl and Samantha fall toward the fire below.
Appearance
A giant demon turning his open hand sideways over an infernal blaze while two tiny figures begin to fall.
Role
