Story[]
Normal[]
The discovery of a crystal borne from the far reaches of the aetherial sea and the desperate plea contained within lead you once more to Elpis, where your trajectory quite literally collides with that of a young man named Themis. Like you, he is here for answers, seeking the source of an aetheric disturbance culminating in loss of contact with the gaol housing the ancients' most dangerous creations. It is this place─this Pandæmonium─into which you now descend...
Description
Savage[]
Nemjiji sequesters you in Aporia for what she insists will be a simple session of dictation, but what the glint in her eye promises will be so much more. Whether or not her written account of your triumph over Erichthonios at the Gates of Pandæmonium will be strictly veracious...well, a little creativity never hurt anyone, right?

Etymology[]
Erichthonios's boss title in Japanese is (獄卒, Gokusotsu?). The term refers to a low-ranking prison guard, in reference to Erichthonios's position within Pandæmonium as a warder. It also refers to the tormenting devils in Naraka, the Buddhist equivalent to hell.
