Alptraum returns to the dark hall of Lord Baneweed in the guise of a reaper demon (the Barsunala spirit). While there, he plays up being evil, selfish, and hedonistic … all perfect demon virtues. After a bit of arranging and performing a few services, he is able to get a little advice on how to see through illusions. His trip is cut short, though, when some of the dark elves start eying Alptraum as a potential 'pet'.
