Mordant turned his head to face the dark expanse of the tunnel. He could smell the newcomers. It wasn't normal for so many portals to open and for members to be teleported without their knowing.
"Who iss it?" He called, his voice like the rustling of dry leaves. "Moore friends?"
He turned to the people in his party and tugged at his shroud anxiously.
"Thiss iss strange for me. I never meet soo many new friends."

Echo looked up and grabbed Enfer's sleeve, tugging on it. "Enfer," she whispered. "I think more people are showing up.

"Yeah, I hear them as well...how many people were sent here?" Enfer stated as his ears twitched. "One of those voices sound like Whisperer."

Echo gasped, shocked to hear the name of her other friend. "Let's go find her!" Echo yelled, trying to pull Enfer.

"Don't pull, I'm coming," Enfer said as the two of them went to go find their other friend who ended up in the tunnel as well.

Spurred by their action, Mordant took wide strides forward towards the noise as well.
This was interesting, different from the solitary life he was forced to live before. Meeting so many members in a single day was a treat. The nervousness he felt before was dispelled at the idea someone would tell him what was going on and what exactly he had to do.

" Wait you two! We still dont know whose down there!" He paced forwards toward the two up ahead and the other members following them. He looked back and signaled Aranea to follow him ad he still continued forward.

Echo kept going. "If we gather up everyone, maybe we'll find out how we got here and why." Echo thought outloud. Her bare feet bounced on the cold ground, gaining a blue tint as the temperature kept dropping, but Echo pained no mind. Even when her breath could be seen in front of her.

She felt a familiar coldness encasing her body. It was that of a cave- she could recognize the damp rock and smell of sediments anywhere. As her hearing was first to come into focus, Evelyn moved her fingers slowly, her nails digging into the dirt and mud. Slowly, her eyes fluttered open, vacant and white as ever. She was momentarily in complete darkness, but after a moment, the horn-like candles protruding from her head flickered back to life, now illuminating the immediate area around her. It was indeed a cave- but why was she here? The last thing she remembered was sitting on her bed in the upstairs floor of the bakery she worked at, reading some old book and then- now she was in this cave system? Perhaps she should be getting used to these odd occurances. Slowly staggering to her feet, Evelyn brushed the dirt off of her baggy sweater, ruffled skirt and other articles of clothing which had the filth sticking to the cloth. Of course, it left stains, but that was the least of her worries. Her newest worry was getting out of this cave. Ralphie finally came to, "Great, where are we?" The sentient eye on her stomach growled, his voice filling her head.
Evelyn simply shrugged, increasing her core temperature so the flames which lit the candles on her head would burn brighter, "I'm not sure, but you need to stay quiet until we get out of here so I can focus." She announced to him. Of course, with brighter flames, it caused her hair which happened to be made of wax to drip at a very slow pace, every once and a while, a drop of steaming goop falling from her flaxen locks. All part of being a candle demon.
Ralph grumbled before shutting his eye, effectively silencing himself beneath her sweater. Smiling, she pat her tummy a few times to show that she appreciated it. Now she could clearly think without Ralph's negativity and apathy clouding her thoughts and judgement. She swore she could hear the faint echoes of other voices coming from the tunnels behind her, or perhaps it was her imagination? Either way, she cloaked herself in shadows, the only parts of her body visible being the two bluish-green flames which now appeared like two fiery eyes floating amid the dark cave. It was time to investigate.

Aranea nodded to Dreamer and followed him to the tunnel. Taking a deep breath, she closed her eyes and focused on the scents. When her eyes reopened, her pupils were slits. "Others. At least two. One smells of sulfer, brimstone perhaps, and the other...confuses me. Prepare yourselves." She turned and spun her trap, ready to lay it down if provoked.

Astrael shivered and hugged his legs closer but this time is was from the cold temperature and not his anxieties. The voices kept getting louder so he decided to get up and streach out his wings and tail. When they were just around the corner he flew up and hid above, ready to change his form to something that would be more appealing to his new audience.

"Echo has a pretty good idea, if we manage to find others who were sent here, we could find out how we all got here and escape faster," Enfer explained.
Hey little dragon~It appears that that darling girl--Evelyn was it, is here as well. Why don't we go find her~
"You just want to bug Ralphie don't you?" Enferasked out loud, crossing his ams as he followed after to Echo, keeping a close eye on her when noticed the blue tint to the souls of her feet and the fact that he could see his breath, but the cold hardly effected him.
Oh? Now why would you think that?
Rolling his eyes, Enfer noticed the three new cult members and walked over to them and asked,"please tell me that any of you know how we got here and how to get out."

Echo looked around, the cold affecting her brain and thought process, she was even more confused. She kept turning around in a circle, trying hard to find out where she was. Tears sprung in her eyes.

Enfer stopped his conversation with Dante when he realized something was wrong with Echo. Quickly, he ran over to her putting a hand on her shoulder only to jerk it back when he felt how cold she had become. "You're freezing Echo..." the hybrid removed his cloak, draping it over the smaller one, creating a small ball of fire in the palm of his hands and holding it near her to hopefully warm her up.
