As Rachel and her family approached the festivities, they were approached by four demons. They were led by a red skinned demon with the head of a fierce lioness and the horns and tail of a cow. Set pair of falcon wings sat folded behind her. Athatgatis blushed when she noticed that the lioness headed demon had two pairs of breasts. The next had green-scaled skin and the tail of an eel like Leviathan, but his "hair" was a mass of tentacles that flowed down to his mid back, and two tentacles hanging from his upper lip simulated a long mustache. His ears were like a lion's, and his eyes looked distinctly feline. The next had normal hair the color the the midnight sky, but his lower body took the form of ten tentacles like a squid. His mouth was filled with long, thin fangs like the mouth of an angler fish, and he had Leviathan's angler fish lure dangling from his forehead. Next to him was a female demon with a tail like a sea serpent instead of legs and the head of a wolf. Her blue-skinned body had four pairs of breasts like a wolf's.
All were nearly nude. The lioness-headed demon with cow horns wore gold pasties to cover her four nipples, a red thong, a see-through purple gauze skirt, an Egyptian-style headdress, and an equally Egyptian-looking gold necklace. The eel-tailed demon with the tentacle hair and the squid-bodied demon both wore no actual clothes (Rachel wondered where they kept their genitals) aside from a black leather vest on the eel-tailed demon. Other than that, they just wore brass arm bracelets and carried tridents. The wolf-headed demon with the sea serpent tail wore eight copper pasties over her nipples with red tassels hanging from them as well as a copper headdress with a see-through veil dangling over her lupine face.
Leviathan waved to them before turning to Rachel. "Rachel, meet my wife, my sons, and my daughter-in-law!"
Maisy hugged the lioness-headed demon with the cow horns. "It's good to see you again, Aunt Hathor."
"Likewise," Hathor smiled before turning to face Rachel. "It's a pleasure to meet you. I am Lady Sekhmet, but you needn't call me by my court name. I much prefer my old human name of Hathor. Well, it was technically Hut-Hor, but most people prefer speaking English to Egyptian."
"I know how you feel," Rachel smiled. "My name's officially Lady Tenebra, but I still like the name Rachel."
"I've been eager to meet you... especially after I heard about the conspiracy," said Hathor. "As another human-born demon, I feel like we need to support each other in the face of bigots like Beelzebub, Adrammelech, or even Belial."
"Belial's not as bad as some," remarked Lilith, "but I admit he is a bit set in his ways. I think he's warmed up to the two of us over the centuries, but freshly changed humans always need to prove themselves to him."
"That's Belial, alright," Hathor said with an eye roll. "He's always been a hot-blooded conservative with a love of weapons and a distaste for outsiders."
"Sounds like a stereotypical Texan," Rachel giggled.
"And these are Uncle Leviathan's sons Admiral Dagon and Admiral Charybdis," Maisy said, gesturing first to the eel-tailed demon and then to the squid-tailed demon, "my cousins."
"Pleased to meet you," Dagon said, slithering up to Rachel on his eel tail. "Miasma certainly knows how to pick a beautiful wife." He give Rachel a playful wink.
"Dagon's still a bachelor," Maisy groaned, annoyed with her cousin's antics. "We're hoping he'll settle down soon like Charybdis did. That girl with the wolf head and the sea serpent tail is Scylla, Charybdis's wife."
"Delighted to meet you," Scylla grinned, revealing her lupine fangs. "I'm from Earth myself, just like you, my mother-in-law, and Aunt Lilith. Me, I'm from Greece. Charybdis asked me to marry him in... 1500 BC, I think. It was a relief to be courted by someone more kind and respectful than the men of Ancient Greece! So many of my old suitors only saw me as good for housekeeping and breeding children."
"Not that Scylla hasn't given me many lovely grandchildren," Leviathan laughed. "They have five by now."
"That's because we can't keep our webbed hands off each other!" Charybdis chuckled. He then spotted Atargatis holding hands with Astaroth. "Ah, what have we here? Has Aunt Astaroth finally found herself a wife?"
"I have," said Astaroth. "This is Lady Atargatis, formerly Rebecca Church. She's actually Rachel's mother. She's an old girlfriend of mine from the Nineties, but she wasn't prepared for a lesbian marriage to a demon back then."
"She turned you down and survived?" Dagon marveled. "How did you manage that?"
"I carefully avoided asking her to marry me when I revealed myself," said Astaroth. "That's what triggers the week-long death timer, the marriage proposal. I just revealed myself and asked her if she wanted to keep the relationship going. She didn't... or, more accurately, she felt like she shouldn't want that."
"But now we're back together and engaged," Atargatis smiled, kissing Astaroth's cheek.
"And now we can join in on the festivities," Lilith grinned sinfully, glancing at the revelry.
"Let's," Lucifer nodded.
"You'll enjoy this, Rachel," Maisy said. "We know how to party down here."
"I'm looking forward to a hell of a good time!" Rachel laughed.
