GrimGrimoire/WMG: Difference between revisions

Line 3:

You see, the Lillet we know is VERY different from who she used to be....thousands of years ago last week.

The answer is such; she knew that the Philosopher's Stone was there, and intentionally bound herself to it. This would give her infinite access to the Silver Tower's magic research, and any grimoire she wanted via a [[Deal ~~With~~ the Devil]]. The time reset would automatically reset any Demonic Contract as well, but the magic and knowledge would remain in her soul. (Which she could sell ''again'' the next reset. Hundreds of Faustian bargains weaseled out of and ''Hell doesn't even know.'')

All that remained is her ''mental'' well-being. That much time would make most people go insane; so she split her personality and shunted off parts that started to decay into the void surrounding the Philosopher's Stone; as well as [[Memory Gambit|rewriting her own memory and personality.]] Eventually she acquired enough power ''and'' the ideal personality that she wanted to both defeat the Archmage/Demon combo and have a happy, comfortable life after. And she's not even aware of most of what she had to do for it.

== Advocat gets far more mage souls by ''not asking for them'' then any other devil does trying. ==

Clearly one of the rules of conduct in his bet with Gammel is to not initiate any [[Deal ~~With~~ the Devil]] contract for souls with the students at the Silver Tower. However, the fine print is that it's fine if said student initiates the deal; as seen in his dealings with Bartido and Lillet. Ironically this method works ''better'' than scheming; as that would scare people off. Just the [[Forbidden Fruit]] knowledge that he can give them anything they want is enough for some students to meet with him in secret; and he's "bound by Devil/Client Confidentiality" not to reveal if anyone has. Likewise, he has to forestall any [[This Is Your Brain On Evil]] sideeffects or else Gammel would find out...and this ''also'' means it's far more likely for people to make deals with him. No bad publicity.

== Advocat still had the contract regarding Lillet's soul ==
