Guess so.

Anevia was right to think she'd heard running water. There was a canal adjoining the great room where the demon conducted its rituals, and a stairwell on one side of it, and at the top of that - Kenabres.

It's - as Bella can tell from a distance - full of demons. And humans and orcs and tieflings and so on, of course, but lots of demons. 

Well, there's tons of demons up there, but hopefully we can get backup once we're up the stairs.

"The city's defenders will surely still be fighting," says Seelah, and plunges ahead. " - uh, want to point me in a direction where we'll find mortals rather than demons, or at worst a mix of both?"

Up the stairs and hang a left and it's solidly eighty percent there far as I can detect.

Off they go.

It's not only eighty percent, but rising; there's fighting and the mortals are winning it. At the center of them is a half-orc, paladin, same god as Seelah, stabbing things very viciously. She glances at them very briefly, just long enough to evaluate them as 'not more demons', and doesn't glance back until the room is all mortals no demons. 

Then -

"Gods. I thought -"

And Anevia limps across the room to fling herself into orc paladin lady's arms. "Yeah. I, uh, got a little lucky, made a couple friends.

Uh, these are - Bella, Seelah, Lann, Camellia."

Hi. Do you want this magic sword? I am not a sword person.

- half-orc paladin looks questioningly at one of the people behind her, who steps forwards to study the sword. 

        "....to the best of my ability to detect anything at all, that's just a completely normal sword," he says.

"Nah it was glowy and let Bella smite a demon with holy power or something," Anevia says, still clinging. 

Also it aggravated my mysterious and possibly cursed chest injury when it did that so I'm not sure it's good for me to hold onto it.

"I am worried it's a demonic plot of some kind," the woman says tiredly, "no offense intended. - I'm Irabeth Tirabade, commander of the Eagle Watch. Why doesn't someone wrap up the sword for now and put it in a bag and we can look at it more closely back at headquarters - we've gathered the survivors to the Defender's Heart. If you all are combat-capable, though, this is the building with the wardstone and we need to clear it out and secure it."

"I've been not completely useless sitting in the back with a longbow -" 

"You have a broken leg. Alina can take you and any civilians to the Heart."

I'm running on fumes psionics-wise but I'm - walking wounded? Not sure if you need me, you seemed to be able to find the demons on your own.

"She can tell where demons are even when they've concealed themselves from ordinary divination because she's a psion."

"That's extremely useful and much less so for this specific fight than it will be everywhere else in the city, why don't you head back to the Heart and let us know if any demons have already infiltrated it and then we can plan from there once we've retaken the garrison." Irabeth gives her wife a quick kiss on the forehead. "Onwards, crusaders. Iomedae is with us!"

"Good to know she's not secretly a demon," Anevia says fondly. 

Was that a concern on your mind? Bella asks, resuming helping Anevia walk.

Oh, I'm not worried about whether the woman I married is a demon, but whether the thing going around with her face is - yeah, it's the kind of thing you want to worry about.  The previous commander of the Eagle Watch was a cultist of Baphomet posing as a paladin, had successfully fooled nearly everyone. 

That sounds like it ought to be very hard to pull off but I will, uh, be alert to it. I'm not up on the local, uh, religions?

- huh. I mean, I figured you wouldn't know Iomedae since She's a Starstone god, but I guess I imagined the ancient gods would be the same in other worlds. I guess even if they are the same gods they probably don't have the same names. Baphomet's a demon lord most famous for irritating Asmodeus, getting eternally trapped in a maze, and then making it his divine realm and walking off to the Abyss with it?

I guess it's possible we have these under different names where I grew up but the story does not in fact sound familiar to me.

I guess the Abyss is supposed to be infinite and we mostly only know of the demon lords who bother causing trouble here. 

There's an invisible demon observing them from midair, on the left.
