Because you need to understand what we do, and what Hell is. But come. Let us not keep Him waiting.
[ and lucifer leads them into the city, a city of deep brown and faded yellow stones and clay. there's a huge crowd of people, robed and veiled and ragged - the smell of human sweat overpowers, the heat of stagnant breath, and stench of human waste and camel dung. no one takes notice of them, though he can feel the press of people around them, feel unwashed men shoving against him, and brushing in front of him, and the sand salts the air here within the walls of the city, within these narrow streets.
people cluster in small rounded doorways, peep from windows above. soot mingles with the everlasting sand. women drawing their veils around their faces cleave to one another, pushing past. up ahead, they can hear screams and shouting. the crowd pushes around them so tightly that des can't even move further.
lucifer is right beside him, watching all calmly, no preternatural gleam now. ]
