Qixia gave Mulciber a smile and a nod, "Of course!"
If it had felt bad from the outside, it was far worse on the inside. That everything still appeared to be fresh presented a very dark and morbid aura to the room. The qilin did not recoil nor make to flee, but she did keep herself well away from the walls, floor, and ceiling.
"I do not know these sigils." Which went to say that they came from some culture she did not know or was so old that they may be lost to time. Or were secret. Records might hold their meaning and use, but Qixia had never seen such things. She couldn't even read. For all she had seen and observed over the past couple of hundred years she lived, her eyes had not seen these. Not anywhere. She peered at her companions and asked, "Mulciber, you have not seen these before? Nor any of the souls within?"
No, she didn't expect that ordinary cleansing methods would meet the task. Qixia even began to wonder if these sigils were still performing some manner of task, albeit it may be waning over time. What craft could concoct a spell that would last for eternity? Her instincts did say that only fire could cleanse this place. A fire so hot and holy that it may even singe her own hairs. Her fire had never met such a task before.
"I can do it." She said, a small warble in her voice as if there was some uncertainty as to the effectiveness. "It would have to be the greatest fire I have ever employed." She turned in place. "The whole room needs to be purged and even then there may be a shadow that remains. These sigils are older than I..." Qixia turned to Mulciber, "You should go outside to be safe. I'll not want you to come to any harm. You are good and my fire would be warm and pleasant, but if any soul within contained malcontent it may not be unscathed. I do not know what that may do to you."
