"My master, Lord of the Styx, Charon, has always held the Lord of Death and the Raven Queen in the highest esteem," the Ferryman Demon replied respectfully. Lancelot could detect a hint of fear in the creature's voice. "Our kin has served as envoys for the Lord of Death since ancient times... It is a great honor."
"Since ancient times?" Lancelot asked curiously, "Which Lord of the Dead are you referring to?"
"He refers to Yago, the Master of the End of All Things, the first Lord of the Dead." At some point, little Isha had emerged from Lancelot's hair again. "However, during Milko's time, this collaboration ceased for certain reasons and was never restored..."
"Are you... a favored one of the Lord of the Dead?" Vexus seemed startled and took a step back, accidentally dropping his hood to reveal his smooth head. "Wait a moment, you also seem to be... a favored one of the Raven Queen?"
