Markiel was the one to tend to Jaklo. He took the hunter from Mithias, quickly laid him down on a medical cot in his office, then began a series of procedures. While he wasn't a healer the company had a rather extensive first aid kit. First and foremost Markiel did his best physically resetting Jaklo's lowest rib. It had been cracked and moved by the icicle spear, but at least it had kept close to its connection.

The hunter growled and roared as the warlock worked. While pain killers were an option even magic ones would be barely effective considering the damage. At the very least it could help feed back into Jaklo's rage reinforcing the magic letting him function. It was clear by now he was functioning not off of his body systems but by burning mana.

With everything back in place Markiel retrieved three things, a green jewel, a bottle of red liquid, and a normal first aid kit. He poured the liquid directly into the wound making Jaklo roar even louder. It boiled on contact with the air cleansing the wound and sending Jaklo's natural ability to heal into overdrive. The cells were growing at beyond cancerous rates, but all were doing so correctly. A large amount of the damage was undone. Instead of a gaping wound it was around the size of a quarter. Markiel patched up the wound with the first aid and put the gem in a Jaklo's pocket.

The hunters breathing was shallow, but steady.

“I hope I'm not the only one who doesn't want to do this again.” Markiel huffed, “You know to keep the gem on you to keep your immunity up.”

“Sure thing doc.” jaklo coughed still lying there.
@fdeviant I'll be honest I was half expecting Cass to give the pit a shot of the brandy.
@Polyphemus i was thinking maybe penguin or riddler. Big bad, but not center stage compared to the true villain. Also i call redhood then.
@Polyphemus He very likely will be. Maybe not a major character I already have a primary antagonistic force to be dealt with, but I could see him worming his way into more trouble.
@Polyphemus TBH the original plan didn't involve a demon at all so I had to wing that as we went. Im glad it did though I even named the Shade, so who knows I might use him again later.

Karmveci (K-arm vee see)
@Witch Catno you get grape juice and crackers. The adults are talking now go play with your demon cat. TBH I feel like Jaklo is gonna use that line far too often with coal. he thinks one short walkabout makes him older thane verybody.
@Witch Cat Stop lying you are a cat. You just walk over the keyboard and get very lucky.
The man’s eyes dilated as though he had just seen something shocking. He gasped and his eyes glazed over. The golem disintegrated entirely now and all the snowing ceased. There was a shrill caw as Kelvin landed near the combat team. Markiel’s familiar raised its wings and a portal opened before it. Instead of the warlock, Seph arrived through it moments later. He took in the area and moved silently to the dead mage.

“Markiel sent Kelvin as soon as he got word. Seems even then it’s too late. The investigations team has a name. I’ll handle things here. You should all get inside or you’ll get frostbite. Kelvin go rendezvous with the investigations team I’ll get home the old fashion way.” Seph didn’t seem to waver in emotion not proud of the victory or depressed by the death he’d seen far too much to be swayed by so little.

=======================================================

After about twenty minutes Kelvin arrived at the investigations team. The hellbeak had to awkwardly shuffle along inside to reach the group in the basement. He scowled unamused at the circumstances when he reached them. Here he was a terrifying demon raptor reduced to waddling because the staircase was too narrow.

Once again he raised his wings to allow a portal to be opened. This time Markiel was the one to travel through.

“Alright we’ve gotten the all clear from the combat team. I’ve already put the kettle on so let’s get back you deserve a break and a hot drink. Just need to pick up what's left around here.” The warlock said before going over to the workbench and collecting some tomes and mystical materials, “We can save the debriefing for after everyone has taken a breath.”
"That went about as I expected," Max muttered to himself. Truth be told, he felt a little shaky. He never got used to dealing with shades, and even that brief encounter had drained him somewhat.


That just feels so right to me. With the whole character you set of being the demonologist who doesn't use demons shades (from my description) are literally his worse nightmare a human soul so corrupted with demonic energy that they are a demon now.
“Oh you pitiable mortals. Not even the demon that dragged me here could trick me. Immortality has its costs but eternal knowledge is priceless. That child on the other hand… well you needn’t worry about him any longer.” The shade had a rasping manic laugh echoing behind his voice even though he spoke clearly.

The shade mocked taking a deep breath.

“Oh yes, yet more tinder for hell’s fire. His soul is likely in the depths of tartarus by now. A shame he had such potential and was so eager to learn. If only he asked better questions. He didn’t even let me get to golem seals.” The shade feigned sympathy and sorrow, but it was clear he was delighted by the events, “Did you think a child could design such things? All of you mourn while I reap. Such simple minds can never stay ahead of a demon, much less my own.”

The demonic entity laughed and cackled before vanishing into the pits of hell once again.

===========================================

Jaklo muttered something along the lines of "gottem' coach" in response to the general reactions around him.
