Beneath Reitan

Beneath Reitan is the thirty-ninth chapter of Tales of Sheol'gotha:  Shadow of the Abaddon.

Synopsis
Awakening to find people over him, Palus slowly rouses in a room and is quickly made aware of the wound to his left hand. After a brief fight with the only other demon in the room he demands to see Eimer, though they refuse the general at first. Eventually they leave, and Palus moves to follow, discovering gita outside the door which are evidently set to act as his jailors. When the demon returns without Eimer, Palus forces his way out, tackling a gita to the ground and subdueing it as he marches to the guard house.

He finds Eimer inside and demands to speak to the ambassador, and they return back to Palus' cell. He explains that Palus was not transferred to the regular prisons, but that he has made considerable enemies of the council. Eimer points out that he's aware of what Valon did, but Palus tries to convey that Valon is a much better candidate than Abaddon and pleads for the assistance and support from Eimer to help establish him. Eimer refuses and leaves Palus, suggesting they forget the conversation, and without a way out of the city as he is, Palus turns to the gods instead.
