Questions for Jim 2012 style 2

KevinSig:
Was there a price for Hellfire?  Soulfire uses Harry's own soul as tinder.  You've said that Hellfire is sort of an opposite side of the coin.  So, did Hellfire also burn up Harry's soul?

On a guess, Soulfire trends towards bad bits & Hellfire targets the good bits of a soul?

I'm guessing Lasciel was footing the bill for Hellfire usage for Harry since he never experienced the Soulfire slump when using Hellfire.

Eh, I don't really see Lashiel's Shadow, just giving Harry something for nothing.  Plus, if it had the same price tag, it might explain some things. 

Lashiel's Shadow, was able to get Harry to develop anger issues.  Yes, this was explained by the fact that she had been talking to his inner self, but a comprimised soul, could have added leverage to the change.

Even if the cost was only to Lashiel's shadow, if Harry was able to attain Hellfire in the scene in Changes, it does bring up the question of its potential cost.

She would give him things for free with the only cost being growing dependent on her, that's part of why she was so damn tempting, she didn't have any cost to use other than growing dependent on her and her potentially being able to use that to one day make you take up a coin.

Hellfire twisted harry like bad magic. That's why he started getting rage problems when he was using it. At least, that's what I've always assumed the side effect was
