Raguel approached the guard outside Eden's cell. "Evening Brutus." Brutus stared blankly at him. Raguel cleared his throat, "I've come on Abraxas's orders. The Champion needs nourishment in order to proceed with training."

Brutus stared for a moment longer then pulled the key dangling from his neck…

Eden sat up when her cell door creaked open and in popped Remiel carrying a picnic basket. "Oh good you're awake." Raguel said as he left the cell door open slightly. 

"I brought you something to eat and drink." Raguel sat down and pushed the basket forward as Eden scooted forward. 

"I'm afraid it's nothing spectacular. A couple of loaves of moldy bread and some wine. Food is nonexistent here unless it's from the Lust Ring. Same thing with wine…."

"It's okay." Eden replied. "I'm so hungry I'll eat anything at this point." Eden already had a hand in the basket and before Raguel knew it,  Eden was eating ravenously.
