Added notes on demons and the Abyss

| Sep 5, 2017 at 16:43 | comment | added | Doval | @KorvinStarmast I'll attempt to address demons later today, though the essence of my answer (eating larvae and drinking from the Styx) addresses both equally. The rest is just informed world-building. I can add some notes about how demons are unlikely to have stable societies and how Manes starving is probably of no concern to them, but I don't think the lack of demon-specific info detracts from the answer too much. | |
