I made a lot of money off a medium today.

Why are you correcting me? What do you keep saying, “on Medium”?

Did you hear me? Are you deaf? I said “OFF A MEDIUM” not “ON MEDIUM”!

Your puny human eyes and ears must be deceiving you, like always.

Let’s try again.

I made a lot of money off a medium today. His name was Todd.

See? You understand me.

My name is Fluus Esh Sharr and I was summoned by a medium named Todd who wanted me to make his client rich. The client was a writer. Wanted to make money from writing on the Internet.

Good luck with that.

I heard him calling me, with that stupid voice of his, all the way in my office in the coldest circle of Inferno.

Yes, it is cold down there, not hot, you silly human.

So I flew up many levels to the surface of this place you call Earth.

Then I went up many levels again, to the top of a fancy office where that Todd the Medium worked his magic.
