The party devolves into a game of lies. Kavya offers to share the Core’s power, while Viperina whispers of a curse that will consume Manki. Old Scale-Eye recounts a legend: the Core isn’t a gift, but a prison for an ancient demon. As midnight nears, Manki’s true plan is revealed. The Devil’s Night Party is no mere gathering—it’s a rite.
