Pyralis didn't seem upset by Ashmedai's approach. That was a good sign! She said she wasn't here to play and Ashmedai shot her an overly dramatic eye roll. "All explore and no play doesn't make the bored go away." Ashmedai gave a lopsided smile.
She said the place felt unnatural, and asked what brought Ashmedai there. Jumping onto a smooth stone surface- one that was more than likely a broken pillar of some sort- the tall brute shook out his coat. "Why, just that exact thing, dear Pyralis!" he called in a terrible mock accent. He leaned down off the ledge of his pedestal to look at her in the face, "The unnatural excites me! I love it!"
He jumped off the stone platform and looked back at the woman, "Maybe that's why I'm so fond of you," he said, tossing her a wink.

Ash wears a tourist shirt and a spiked leather harness from time to time. Sometimes together, sometimes not. Just so you know what you're getting yourself into.
