" you're not one of shurima ... why are you here ? " he had a skeptical look upon his face as he eyed the smaller woman before him .
The Infernal fixed a smoldering look at the larger being, not responding for a moment. His presence was solid, powerful. Just shy of suffocating. Was he a threat? Maybe. But he didn't immediately attack at the sight of her and Akali didn't sense any malevolent intentions. Just... curiosity. For now.
"I'm here because of my previous patron, whose remains are the ashes you see around you." A hint of a smirk crossed her features. "We struck a deal, you see. I did his bidding, and he was supposed to assist me in my endeavors afterward. In the end, he failed to keep up the end of his bargain." She crossed her arms, flames dancing around her form.
"But you... You look like someone who keeps his promises. I can help you. I'll burn your enemies to cinders and incinerate the strongest empires. In return, I only ask for a small favor."
