Giroth is a study in complexity both brutally demonic but kind in his way. Giroth takes on responsibility for her to avoid starting more unrest among the human women.

But Cora is no docile slave she rails against her capture and needles the demon guards with insults. Giroth claims her himself to transport to Glamoleth. Cora leads him on a merry chase, impressing him with her quick wits. The capture of Cora isn’t as straightforward as Giroth first anticipated. As with the other races on Protheka, the demons suffer from a very low population of demon females and a severely low birth rate. Crushing the dark elves is not their main purpose, the demons seek human women. This chaotic energy renders the demons immune to the dark magic of the elves. The dark elves stand no chance against the “chaotic energy” of the demons. But now their king Asmodeus has sent a group of Demons, led by Giroth, to the Dark Elf’s human encampment. Demons have kept to themselves on their floating island. The demon monster race is relatively new to the “ground dwelling” races of Dark Elves, Orcs, Naga, and humans. This book is set in Protheka, but it centers on the Demon’s floating island of Glamoleth. The world building that Celeste King does is amazing.
