Unsolved Mysteries Version II
Landing:
Jim has a habit of going all in when he explores a certain mythology and have examples of all the different types out there. there are a lot of different sources for the devil/Satan/Lucifer/the dragon/prince of darkness/father of lies/etc. it might end up that Jim plays around with us some and makes them all be true so that you have one Satan one devil one Lucifer etc.
...or he could make them all be one being who got around a lot. we will just have to wait and see.
Ms Duck:
I personally want to see Tehob.
really, really badly.
a great seven headed dragon rising from the waters like godzilla, speaking the voices of destruction with seven voices?
and Harry on the water beatle, realizeing his magic does not work over open water, and eh has his psitol and snark?
Ms Duck:
I looked it up; unless I have the wrong quote, Jim does not say Satan or Lucifer, he says the 'big d'
--- Quote ---Well. Not quite freely, but MORE freely, certainly. The Fallen bound in the coins are the freaking elite of Hell--everyone the big D didn't want trying to stab him in the back, basically. If they were suddenly freed it would do all kinds of horrible things to about a million balances of power, with repercussions that would last for centuries.
Which assumes that they /can/ be destroyed. I mean, don't think that in 2,000 years, no one has ever TRIED it. And there are still thirty of them kicking around.
Which isn't necessarily to say that it's impossible. But it sure as Hell wouldn't be easy. And given that, while in the coins, they ARE effectively frozen in carbonite without a human agent to assist them, containment certainly seems to be a prudent course.
Funny you should mention that whole notion about redeeming Lasciel . . . >

parthagenon:
Yeah, it is open to interpretation, which is why I said oblique/vague. Then again, for me at least, "big D" implies Devil, which implies Satan/Lucifer. If it had been somebody else Jim was referring to, I would expect him to use another term, like "big bad" or something. Anyway, as this is a questions thread, I'll go ahead and add "Who is in charge in Hell?" to the list.

--- Quote from: Grey Paladin on March 22, 2011, 12:32:43 AM ---I got the impression that it was more the whole mess that Harry was blaming on the PFD, but I suppose it's open to interpretation.
--- End quote ---
Harry specifically says that Lucifer intervened twice. If he was blaming the whole mess on him, I don't see why he would specify a number.
