Archdemon Empress Luna

"That\'s not our friends, though. At least, not now." The Archdemon of Sloth faced the Autumn Queen with a blank expression. Queen Morgan squinted at him and pursed her lips as he continued, "He is the real enemy."
The Autumn Queen knew that an Archdemon stood in front of her instead of the old man Sloth used as a glamour.
From Queen Morgan\'s stoic and unfriendly countenance, it was apparent that she was so close to demanding Luna\'s Archdemon Familiars to show their actual appearances. But she didn\'t attempt anything of the sort.
She was cautious as she should.
In the Queen\'s shrewd gaze, Sloth and Ravin were unpredictable Archdemons who can become one way or another depending on their mood—amiable creature at the moment and then a killing machine the next.
Queen Morgan had no idea what Ravin and Sloth could do.
That was why she was meticulous whenever she engaged with them after figuring out their true identities.
Luna could almost pick up Queen Morgan\'s swirl of conflicting emotions from her guarded aura. The Autumn Queen had built tall walls around her, and Luna didn\'t mean Jora and Sylvain were standing beside her left and right.
She watched the Queen eye Sloth warily when he stated,? "There is another Archdemon who just got here in this Realm."
Luna bit her lip and swallowed hard, forcing herself into a state of composure.
Should she allow Sloth to reveal the Archdemon of Lust\'s identity to Queen Morgan?
Was this the perfect time to tell her, or would it ruin the trust their group had built with the Autumn Queen?
"Tell us now, Archdemon." Queen Morgan persisted as she looked over Sloth briefly before bringing her attention back to Luna and Apollyon. From the way the Autumn Queen quickly averted her gaze from the Archdemon, Luna assumed that she was, indeed, intimidated by his presence. He was the Archdemon who had the gall to kill her outside their Kingdom, after all. "I believe this situation will get worse when the portals between two worlds is wide open. The veil is wearing thin. Mabon Festival is looming in and the Samhain is two weeks away before the Winter Season begins." The corner of her mouth curved downward. "I just remembered what the Three Fates had told me a long time ago that I didn\'t think we would find relevant until now."
Apollyon pressed on, "What? did? the Moirai say, Queen Morgan?"
"The dead will rise, the gates of heaven will open and there will be no further separation between heaven and earth."
Luna winced when she heard another dark prophecy by the Three Fates uttered by the Autumn Queen herself.
It reinforced her belief that the apocalypse in the Material Realm was near.
Destruction was inevitable if? Queen Morgan\'s power weren\'t enough to keep these demons at bay with her substantial barriers.
Of course, she would need help from Luna\'s Archdemon Familiars.
Luna can turn them into helpful and heroic creatures who want to be of service to their Master.
It would be too easy to compel them to fight their kind and win it for the sake of peace, love, and throughout the land, living in a utopia without greed, corruption, and misery.
The Cadre and the Council were loyal to Queen Morgan and Luna, Apollyon, Princess Sapphire, and Xerxes were humble and kind enough to devote themselves to a worthy cause such as saving the Material Realm from demon domination. But would it be possible to align the Realms and to unite all different species after the apocalypse?
The Archdemon of Envy had set the Archdemon of Lust free in this world after taking over her physical vessel for an hour.
It made sense that Luxen would include other strong Archdemons to play in this Realm, especially the Ancient Ones when Lilith was in no condition to do so after Luna had contained her and buried her consciousness through her abilities in Archdemon Magic.
The world will still turn into a battleground with or without Lilith\'s cooperation.
No one can give them salvation except Archangels.
Unfortunately, Luna didn\'t know how to call upon those creatures, so more battles might be lost before the second great war could bring victory.
She hadn\'t even figured out who the leader of Luxen\'s Legion was when she couldn\'t feel the bastard and his president\'s unholy presence during her soul travel near the Fall Kingdom\'s barriers.
Not everyone can see their opponents.
Most of them were left to imagine who their adversaries were and what they were truly fighting for.
Queen Morgan\'s Cadre and the Autumn Militia were embattled warriors determined to protect their turf, and the Fall Queen already promised that she would help them find the Tree of the Four Seasons as soon as possible.
In turn, Luna and Apollyon\'s group must cooperate with the Fall Courts to victory over Luxen\'s Legion.
How will they be able to find the Tree of the Four Seasons if Luxen\'s Legion was determined to wipe the secret garden in Princess Ourania\'s map?
They must be prepared to stand their ground, and they need to think about valuable and strategic plans.
Even if it was an uphill battle and they were outnumbered by Luxen\'s legion, the Fall Courts should fight in a position of power, especially when Luna had Ravin and Sloth at her beck and call.
It was time to give these demons what they wanted—a battle between good and evil.
Luna took a ragged breath when Apollyon said out-of-the-blue, "You, wife, are not going anywhere." Her husband kept his gaze on Queen Morgan while the hand on her waist fell away. Her heartbeat raised in alarm when he added, "Stay in the Autumn Palace with Queen Morgan."
"But—"
"There are no buts." Apollyon raised a forefinger near her mouth as if to silence her and growled low,? "Don\'t fight me on this.. This isn\'t the time."
