>>5640737In the moments where you can grab and maintain his ever-shifting attention, you harangue Set for details about the nature and weaknesses of demons.
To your surprise, the knowledge that Set provides is largely theoretical in nature and is bereft of his usual grandstanding and posturing. Reading between the lines, it’s clear that while Set has done some heinous stuff during the course of his existence, that particular line is one that he strays far away from.
it’s a lot to remember, and a few of the less important nuances fail to make an impression, but you take copious notes when possible and maintain your attention as best as possible on the key points of Set’s wild lectures.
That while stronger demons may be unique in strengths and weakness, weaker demons have generally overlapping deficiencies.
That the greatest and most powerful of the demonic host each possesses their own sigil, that can be found on their property, soldiers, and supplicants.
That demons have a murky hierarchy of nobility from the greatest and mightiest of damned generals to the weakest and most cowardly cannon fodder.
That there is a tangible difference in strength and ability between the unwillingly possessed and the beneficiaries of a Faustian bargain.
That if there was ever a unifying force that could prevent greater demons from their relentless infighting and petty squabbles, the world would be in serious trouble.
Overall, between your recent row with Delrio and Set’s tales, you’ve managed to establish a solid foundation of knowledge about demonic culture, biology, and tactics.
It also helps that Thoth is usually there to reel Set back on topic and away from one of the many strange tangents he’s liable to lapse into.
