Two massively armoured knights and a formally dressed erinyes could be seen entering the prison. They are shown into a seperate enclosure by a elderly officer known as Factor Murdoch.
It doesn't take very long before the greyhaired officer storms out of the room with a hasty gait and a ruddy face. His lips pressed tightly together and his hair bristeling as a angry boar. Running into and almost over a younger male recruit he speaks in a controlled yet angry tone "Get me that Tala lass on the double."
The young man speeds away instantly looking for her without questions.
A Envoy Of Baator Enters The Prison.

He'd find her on one of the prison's wings standing guard duty.
"What?"
"What?"

The young man answer with some uncertainty. Fiddeling with the pommel of his sheathed dagger as he spoke.
"Murdoch wants to see you and he ain't happy, no idea what it was about." He turns around starting to walk in the direction he came from expecting Tala to follow willingly with his back turned to her.

Walking at a normal pace he glanced over his shoulder. The human couldn't me much over eighteen years. His posture and tone suggested inexperience. "What the hells did you do? Looked like he was about to explode right in my face."
She is led through the halls and eventually she can spot the old officer Murdoch. With his hands clasped behind him he walks back and forth. As he spots the pair he walks towards them with a hurried step. Reaching them he grasps Talas upper arm rather forcefully. Speaking irefully yet stifled hushly. "What is this stunt suppose to mean? Do you comprehend how much prestige we stand to lose if this goes public?"
His face shifts colour as he speaks getting redder and redder bordering the redness of a cooked lobster. He let go of her arm and starts to make a gesture by pounding his fist into his palm repeatedly as he speaks. "Never, ever break the law. It is what seperates us from them." He ceaces with his gesturing and there is a moment of silence and he regains his composure. "The devils are back there." He jerked a thumb over his shoulder pointing towards a closed room on their left. " They seem willing to make some kind of arrangement with you and I strongly advice you listen very carefully, it is not a bargin from a favourable position."

She does not answer the nervous young man. She stands straight and clenches her jaw as she is berated. She does not protest make excuses or answer back.
"Yes sir."
She goes as directed. The weight of her rash actions coming crashing home.

As she enters the room she notice two familiar steel clad hulking figures standing at the far end. The two surviving Orthons from her previous encounter. To their side she see a Erinyes sitting in a sofa with a leg put over the other. Her black dress is fomally cut with red silk-thread embroidery at the sleaves. The devil leered at the sorceress as if she had Tala exactly where she wanted her to be. She spoke with a blend of diminutive and flawlessly polite voice. Confounding unless she was used to devils.
"Your little rampage earned the intended attention. Unfortunately you destroyed batoorian property to obtain it. I was able to salvage one but the other two are lost for a considerable time. I do believe a recompensation is within reason. We hare under no restriction or obligation to take legal actions. However we are free to so so would it serve us."
The Erinyes raised her hand and made a faint gesture wherewith small motes of lights begin to draw into her hand and soon after a dark scroll manifested from nothingness.
She continued. "It so happen that we have need of your offer in a campaign I deem suitable." Looking at the scroll with her embering eyes bustling with malice. "Interested? If so I will shed the details."

She is used to devils. She responds in Infernal.
"We both know I have little choice. Cut to the chase."

Tala haden't even finished the sentence before the devil continued switching to her native tongue.
"It is a delicate task that require tact and guile. An emissary of the deity Iyachtu Xvim was recently lost to us. I want him retrieved and brought to me at the inn."
She shifted her weight to the opposit side and crossed her legs anew in reversed position. The pair of Orthons stood as frozen statues, the mild light of the lamp at the table skittered over the pitch black surface of their rigourous armour only to die out as fast.
"I have no use for a corpse." She said hinting a warning. " But if that's all that remains of him bring it to me for affirmation of his demise. He was lost on the second layer of Gehenna Chamada in what seem to have been a Tanar'ri raid to a Xvimite outpost. I want our involvment to be concealed from the demons or any other part. Whether you choose to undertake this alone or with company of allies are entirely up to you, they will however be your responsibility. You should make your preparations for the journey and meet me at the inn when ready to depart."
