The "peace talks" in Vine's opinion, were a misnomer. They were if anything "stalemate talks" as each side of Heaven and Hell quarreled over the conditions of peace accords set down to prevent violence inevitably led to renewing the old contract and being done with it. Lucifer had been heading the peace talks.
But this year he didn't want to go. Paimon, his loyal advisor, had been unable to represent him. Thus one last royal of high standing was sent to represent Hell.
Vine disliked the sterile whiteness of Heaven's decor. Even as she was teleported in, gown trailing along the floor and her many hands floating behind, she found that for all the millennia that had passed, Heaven had yet to adopt any taste.
Ah well. She was here to pluck some feathers, not to criticize the decorating.
Vine certainly got a lot of looks. Lucifer and Paimon always held a degree of decorum and restraint, but Vine sauntered boldly up the street, outpacing her guide who struggled to keep up with her long legs. And when she arrived at the Hall of Divine Intervention-
".....ho ho-" She chuckled as the room stopped to look at her. "-well don't we look surprised?"
Ah yes! She was supposed to tell them she was replacing the King in this matter. But so much more fun to come in as a surprise, no?
