Together they stand as the 4-count

*continued narration*
Formed from their connections with the criminal underworld, our fathers Erebus I and Omen I got the bright idea to use them in live combat exercises as a way for us to gain experience.

Pops broke it down further in one of his notes wayyyy back when they were just about done building the two castle... *ahem*
"Some Demons are killers, some mess around, and The 4-Count are a mix of both. Either way, it would the Castle Guard get ready for the real deal."

Nemo: The rules go somethin' like this-- The 4-Count fight in a rotation, during which one of them will issue us a unique challenge. If we don't like said challenge for whatever reason, they have to come up with something else. In the event that we don't accept the challenge, Diest Castle has its power reduced significantly until we do. Winning will restore the castle, but the opposite means the castle will stay that way until we win a challenge. That's not accounting for us all dying, of course.

Billie: Hey, wait! I've run into Rosebed before! She leads the Joyriderz Gang! They're just a bunch o' psychi-- well-- Joyriders, dammit! They don't USUALLY fight people. Why are THEY in on this?
Erebus: Do it.
Nemo: Why I'm GLAD you asked, Billie! If The 4-Count wins a challenge, then they get...

P7
Nemo: A 10-DAY VACATION ACROSS ALL OF TIME AND SPACE (wherever that is...) (or when...)
(the words "Rosebed was here" is right next to the giant text that says all of this in front of a massive starscape)
Billie: Well that's certainly an incentive.
Do you always have to do that?
Nemo and Erebus: Yes
Billie: Can I join in next time?
Nemo and Erebus: Yes
Billie: Nice


GOOD NIGHT, OUTLAWS
