"Of course, of course, I'll arrange for the prisoner's transfer at once. As for who is in command, that would be our own Vessarion. You'll meet him at the feast. Now if you will follow me. . "
Assuming there were no objections, the demon turned, and led the party out of the collection of messy-looking buildings which served as their lodgings. A few twists and turns through tents and equipment later, they came to a place where the ship was in plain view - dominating the horizon, and held up by rickety scaffolding. A few humanoid forms could be seen, working away at it.
Takis then led them through another collection of buildings and forges, down into a dell. The place was lit with bonfires, and roofed with arches of something similar to razor vine, with the occasional bone thrown in for good measure. Tied to the vine pillars are various still-living humanoid forms, some of them clearly celestial, from which demonic chefs happily carve steaks for cooking.
Around the fires are tables already laden with meat; despite the chaotic placement of the tables, there seems to be a "head table" across the dell, where a Glabrezu sits, overseeing the "festivities". The place is filled with other demons of all sorts, and Takis leads the group through the crowd to their own table, near the Glabrezu's.
//If people will be around, we can try for Saturday afternoon again here? Or will people be involved in the bank robbery?

((Sorry for the late reply was away or the weekend and couldn't post. Coming weekend will be grand though if you guys can make it? ))
Halting only to regard the impressive structure looming in the distance. Pleased to see that the work hadn't come to a complete standstill. Trailing shortly behind the demon he was attentive to spot any oddity on their way to the feast.
As they were guided to their table he poised himself so he had clear veiw of the Glabrezu. Before he seated himself he glanced to the demon wihthout staring to long dipping his head if the two made eye-contact not submissive nor domineering in manner.
The risk of being leathaly posioned impending. He looked down at the carved meat with a satisfied expression as you would expect any good guest would.
"I am going to enjoy this. Shall you join us or do duties deemand you to be elsewhere?" He asked lifting his gaze from the offered food to Takis.

"I can remain if you have more questions, or depart it if makes you more comfortable," Takis bowed his head slightly, and then retreated a short distance away if he were not questioned further.
The food was surprisingly not poisonous or unpalatable, though probably not particularly good for the mortals present.
The Glabrezu's eyes were frequently on the Doomguard party, and near the end of the feast they were beckoned over. Assuming his 'summons' was not ignored, the demon looked over the party with baleful eyes, and spoke in a surprisingly pleasant voice:
"Doomlord Ashtoret, I believe? And. . . company. . . " his gaze settled on each of the party members in turn.
"I am Vessarion, the overseer of our little project here. I hear you've come to view the construction."
//So just to give you guys an idea of what is coming, we'll pick up the story in game at the end of the feast. I'm assuming there will be the request to see the ship's interior, and that will be the first session. Hopefully we can do this tomorrow afternoon, or in the next few days, depending on responses here.

((Okay thats two hours after the bank hit starts if I calculated correctly. Should be working.))
Walking over the the demon with a confident stride as the group is beconend over.
"Indeed that is me one of the lesser Doomlords at Pentars dispotial. I trust you have been inform why we are here and our purpose? We are to oversee it and bring the construction up to speed." He gestued to the engineers. "We have an additon to implement and we are eager to begin our work. "
He didn't dispute the demons claims for now. They needed to learn more.
