An royal elf that I seldom see when walking the streets of Nyktome. When our gazes meet, he fills me with.. fear. Dread. I see the look in his eyes.. Does he know what I am?
A man, perhaps at one point. He always lingers in the capital as I make my rounds, he is suspicious as they come, and I find it my personal duty to keep an eye on this stranger within the kingdom of the moon- the last bastion of the sun elves.
The demon of.. Death. Why he is one of the ones who I have met in rare moments of peace. He looks upon me with such.. pity. It makes me furious. No one has the right to pity the briar king, and the conqueror of Fantasia.
No one, not even the gods.
I've only seen Mammon a handful of times.. Goetia will make me show my visions to his entire council, and Mammon is one such member of that council. He seems.. disappointed in me? Worried..? I am not certain. But I know I have never seen such.. sad eyes.
The demoness of vengeance.. hm, when Goetia is perhaps not listening as closely, I see her appear. She seems to sense a stirring hatred in my heart, but for whom? Everyone. I say.
But I needn't any help striking down those I loathe.
She's quite fiery. Literally speaking. Ehem.. she ah.. She hasn't spoken to me. Goetia says most demons will refuse to speak to me, because they fear his wrath.
But I would.. still like to at least know her. It's very lonely inside the inner realm.
Ahh.. Goetia said.. hrm. Something about the sea being unruly because of his fiercest demon, after looking to the matter, I figured that demon would be Dagon, the lord of the sea.
Bluntly put, Goetia conveniently went out of his way to keep me away from the ocean as much as humanly possible, inhumanly possible as well. Can Goetia not control his own dogs?
Goetia mentioned that if a storm ever starts while I'm at sea, to let him know right away. When I asked why, he said that he needed to put someone in their place.
I.. hmn.. I let him know I didn't think that was right.
The strange, and grotesque grand seer that Goetia dragged into our realm. They birth magic, bending dark mana to their will. Dangerous and.. very familiar. I do not act like I recall, of course. Goetia is better thinking I am a forgetful fool..
Oh.. but how could anyone forget you, Merlin?
Hm? I.. oh! Right. Mephistopheles showed himself during Goetia's party. A celebration of his.. supposed victory. Though whenever Mephistopheles draws near, Goetia pulls me closer, and he seethes with anger.
Mmm Goetia's 'prophetic child'. A boy born in the image of that damnable mage who confined me to the pitiful state the lords of hell are in now. But.. mm.. I watch, I observe. He loathes Goetia almost more than I, so I do believe. It is time, to make myself known.
I assume Mephistopheles is one of Goetia's many.. many, obedient lapdogs. But my knight tells me he is of something else entirely. The world crushing serpent he says...? The Binding mage, he says. So many unclear details. Perhaps I'll use him as a means to an end.
Lucifer is the only demon who seems interested in talking to me, despite my ability to warp the inner realm. As well ah.. Goetia refuses to let us be alone. I have no idea as to why though.. Lucifer seems so friendly to me.
When I speak of my love for humanity, Vivian, the seer and novice mage, is a shining image of why. So weak and helpless, yet.. passionate! Resilient! They stand up to their adversaries and protect their kin!..
Its what I love.. about humanity.
Ahh.. Lucifer was a demon mentioned once, Goetia seemed greatly ashamed of him. So I had my own people do research just to find he's some 'lover of man'. He is apparently a patron to Novae which is.. no surprise.
Anyone with a good head knows that the divines are far beneath them.
All humans are worthy of my love and embrace, Alaric Versailles falls to evil and debauchery because he has never known love of compassion his whole life. A prophecy child to the devil, the king of a whole kingdom by sixteen, and now he is merely a young adult, with enough bloodshed and evil karmically attributed to his soul that he would spend the rest of eternity rotting..
No one deserves to rot though, I tried to tell Goetia, that if he wants the prophecy to be true, then he must love Alaric.. but he would only grow angry at my insinuation.
Laplace seems to resent me. I understand that I cannot.. befriend everyone, but I never even spoke to him before he decided he hated me!
Eugh. The unprecedented outlier. The grand seer is- Well the ability of the grand seer is something I would die to have. Full power, the ability to know every path to a certain outcome-- but they're so! Guh. Resistant. To using their power. It's squandered. Really.
Like any other demon under Goetia's thumb, I know little. Laplace is some sort of genius? Goetia presented to me his constructs.. nothing more than mere toys to hold my interest, he spoke that this demon can create more, that what I was given was.. merely a gift. Hmph. Then I would like to see it.
While most.. begrudgingly avoid disturbing the briar king out of a fear of displeasing our master, and otherwise cannot stand him. I find myself on the briar king's side. Why, he's cunning and sharp, elusive to Goetia's snares. Yet there's something inside him, not human, not anymore. It's curious, and I'd like to study it.
Mm.. Goetia's.. dreamwalker..? He said that Iblis has the power to spin and weave dreams.. for good, or for evil.. and unfortunately, I believe Goetia generally uses this power for nefarious reasons.
I believe he is the reason why I can be pulled to sleep so suddenly, and thrust into horrid nightmares.
Goetia's lapdog, literally speaking. Master seems to think humans are some sort of fancy toy, so he takes great interest in them, in this one in particular.
Perhaps I am a touch jealous.
The boy to fulfill the prophecy, and to allow us to breech to the surface, claiming that which should have always been ours. Goetia never spoke fondly of the boy, enraged by his arrogance and defiance. If Alaric were not so precious to my dear master's plans, I would have snuffed the boy out.
Goetia offhandedly mentioned Iblis a few times, stating such things as, the demon of ink and miasma can make your rule unquestionable. I assume he controls the minds of the weak masses, which are quickly thinning thanks to the plague.
Beelzebub is Goetia's only true comfort, within the inner realm.. Goetia doesn't even seem to notice how much he leans into the chain clad demon.. But I do.
Beelzebub is likely one of only a few demons to be redeemed from this horrid prophecy Goetia seeks to fulfill..
Mmh.. The human Goetia saved.. from Alaric? Why did he spite that which he pines.. mm.. A grand seer, and perhaps an unforeseen opportunity, they present Goetia the ability to see into any future.
He's quite.. protective of their soul. Worried of it falling into the wrong hands.
How much the thorned lily broke my master's heart. How his stubbornness and defiance reminded him of the radiant light which he once sought.. He severed the tie between himself and the devil, and Goetia has fallen into utter despair.
Goetia only ever gave me a passing glance at his legion. Beelzebub is the one I personally know the most about. He is the demon of.. hm. Well, he's Goetia's personal guard.. his.. Knight. If you will.
Only ever seen in the corners of my eyes.. and when I took a nondisclosed trip through the inner realm, I wandered into his domain.
A realm filled with strong roots and teal leaves, he called it the heart of Yggdrasil, the heart of the world.. But he seemed so terrified of me, he only ran as I approached him.. I didn't get to say a word before Goetia arrived and took me back to his castle of slate.
The second child of prophecy.. not foretold- their heart shines with such love.. such adoration.. They wander around the inner realm.. They wander to the roots of Yggdrasil.. Sweet child, you are not to be here..
I am a rotten creature, and I.. will surely tear your life from your body.. Please, stay away..
Goetia only briefly told me of his powerful legion of arch demons... Trying to win me over in one way or another perhaps. Satan is the one who he only barely whispered the name of. How frightening a demon, might he be then?
The first child of prophecy.. Golden hair spun like silk.. and cruel twisted eyes. When his presence was first made known, Goetia sighed in such joy as he spoke of him... But so quickly, did the roses fall from his vision..
Alaric.. I have never met him. All I hear are whispers of anguish and sorrow.. but he is a visage of the same being I am... If Goetia successfully courts him, perhaps I will be freed..
A patient.. I had heard reports of a wounded, Snow White harpy at the boarder of Cretuvōs.. only to come and find a gryphon.
Ghost was exceptionally difficult to treat at first, believing I had intention to hurt him, I have no idea if he still believes that to be my intention.
Li is.. he fits his role much better than Raine. But he’s a touch.. creepy? He’s very fixated on the occult, and some find it rather endearing.
Li and I get along about as well as two..- like siblings. I annoy him, he groans, and I keep annoying him, because it’s funny to me.
Li is the more likely one to actually succeed in Shadouin, he's mysterious.. charming.. I simply wish he was.. more attentive to instruction.
