Setting Yog aside, Merida had many more things to worry about now besides her. Those wizards and druids she talked about would try something at her ceremony, and it would be enough to cause Arad to wipe an entire nation. It had to be bad.
So? How does she stop them, or rather, how does she convince Arad not to burn an entire nation? The answer to that was both simple and complicated, beautiful and harrowing.
What she has at her disposal are fungus, rot, and decay. What she controls are demons, hordes of them, and far more than what mortals could comprehend. People always think of demon lords as mere bruits and violent, barbaric monsters that come from the abyss, but that couldn't be further from the truth.
Demons were just as capable of tricking, deceiving, and forcing people to follow their will. Albeit their methods might be a bit rougher than what a devil would use. Devils always use the sweet traps, while demons carry the whip.
