t's very, very cold. It's cold enough that you'll see your breath fog in the air before you, that goosebumps appear on your arms and legs and a chill goes up your spine. You're inside, in a huge palace with sweeping arches and rooms, but it's no real shelter from the cold -- it's just as cold inside as out.
There's a throne room, a kitchen, various rooms and even a dungeon to be explored -- and outside, a frigid, frozen garden, a lake that's naturally frozen over, and miles, and miles of snow as far as the eye can see.
But be careful while you explore. The snowflake soldiers are naturally dangerous, but even more dangerous than that...there's that creeping sensation of numbness going up your arm, a pang through your chest, and the slow, slow freezing from the inside out.
Try not to leave any of your friends behind, okay? Even if they might look a bit too uncannily like some of the statues hanging around for decoration when they're frozen over.

Thanks. Cool sword! That said, what the hell did you just call me?
[ what's a "lass" ]
no subject
I called you "lass". You're a young girl, aren't you?
[She sounds like one.]
no subject
[ curious, she gets all up in his face a little bit. ]
You don't sound older than me. Or look it! What's your deal?
no subject
[It's just a fact that demons age incredibly slowly.]
no subject
Hey, me too! I mean, not that exact age, it wasn't possible for me to keep track. But I know aaaall about looking young but existing for an incredibly long time. Sometimes the humans around here are weird about it.
no subject
Oh? What are you?
I don't usually have this much contact with humans. The ones here are much easier to deal with than the ones at home. I can proudly call them my comrades.
no subject
Anyway, same! I mean, I only ever knew like four humans total before I got here. Sometimes it feels a little weird that so much of the population of Chroma is human. But for whatever it's worth, I like the people here, too.
no subject
Do you know a boy in sunglasses? We spoke about trolls an aliens a bit.
The majority of humans isn't too strange. They usually populate Earth, and this doesn't seem to be the Netherworld.
no subject
[ a beat. ] That ... cannot be the name of your planet. Are you actually from some kind of underworld? Not that I don't believe it, that's just ....
[ .... decisively: ] Surprisingly kickass.
no subject
It's simply called the Netherworld. I instruct dead sinful human souls on how to best earn their way to their reincarnation. You could call it a kind of underworld, if you'd like.
no subject
Whoa. Like some kind of lord of the underworld? Or Netherworld. Whatever.

I have this weird feeling like if I keep asking you questions we'll be here for an hour discussing your backstory. Man, it's weird to have this whole "you're obviously not human so let me ask eighty pointless questions about you" thing turned back on me!
So forget that! Instead, why don't you tell me your name and we can go fight things?

My name is Valvatorez. Did you see another one of those knights somewhere?

Big on justice, huh?
no subject
I'm big on rules. There should be something in place.
