Shuistliel
Something about the demon was familar -- plus it nudged the axe toward him -- and a quick count of the Vislae in his group led Shuistliel to say, "Thank you, Ms. Ainsworth. I assume you were trying to rouse me, and that's very much appreciated; I think it was trying to kill me, or at least my mind, and while I got myself out of the dream, your efforts were undoubtedly helpful." Standing now, with the axe in one hand and his cobra-topped cane in the other, he looked at the creature that tried to -- what? absorb him? he wasn't sure -- harm him, anyway.
Addressing it now, he says, "As my friend says, you really need to talk to us and explain what you know. You're not only in danger from us, but the multitude outside who would love to peck you to death and devour what's left. If you're helpful and useful, we might agree to escort you out so you can get away.
"But since you just tried to eat me," the Vancian continued, "you're going to have to be really helpful." He produces the mask the others saw earlier. "This little trinket will whisper in my ear if you lie, so truthful is your very highest priority if you want to survive." The group knows that this is not what Liel described the mask as doing, at least directly.

Description
Shuistliel is a very handsome man with long silver hair and green eyes the color of fine emeralds. He is dressed as he usually is, in a nice suit, jacket, and pants, and he has his usual snake-headed cane along. He moves quite agilely, like a dancer, perhaps. What's unusual this morning is the black survival combat axe carried in one hand while the cane is tucked under an arm.
