The demons nodded in understanding. With a snap of her fingers Jess and her family vanished in a swirl of purple smoke.

They soon appeared inside of the castle as Jess sighed. "Okay, what first?" Jess asked.

"First thing is of course our ability to make deals." One of the demons said as they read from a scroll. "Yeah. The only ones who get to have fun are those hand selected by you, or those summoned by foolish humans trying to wield our power. It gets boring just lounging around here and not having our queen around." Another demon pouted.

"Fine." Jess said. "Making deals will be permitted with all demons so long as the target is either rotten to the core or just someone wanting to indulge in their gluttonous impulses."

"Is that fair to everyone?" The demon reading from the scroll asked. A few grumbled, but most nodded. "Good. Next business, tributes. Given you are hardly here my queen it seems pointless for demons to leave tribute only for it to waste away."

"True. During times I am not here, tributes are to be distributed to the higher ranking demons. Is some are still left, then they go to all others." Jess said.

"Understood my queen. Next on the list is the annual 'glutton off'." The demon said.

"A number of demons are itching to try, but we haven't had signups yet given you need to pick a date that works for you my queen." The demon said. "As well as a prize for the winner." Another demon said.

"A prize? Hmm...I don't wanna offer my position...what about a place in my inner circle?" Jess asked.

"Think that would do." A few demons said.

"Good. As for a date...we could hold it next weekend." Jess said.

"Next weekend? Should we expect your family to accompany you?" The one demon asked. "No. Why would you ask that?" Jess asked. "Because according to your schedule you were planning something called a 'mother/daughter day'."

"Ah...right. What about weekend after that?" Jess asked.

"Date with your husband, as well as the start of fasting week. Weekend after that is the start of bloating season...Think you also scheduled something with your mother and sisters."
