"Now some of you might want to know whether demons still exist in the Elysium world in some way or form, I鈥檓 going to leave it hanging)." (x) okay well what is this then
Joyce Messier - "*A Deuill*," she pronounces: "*Who being of great Charme and Guille, sneaketh into the homes of the Godlie*."
Conceptualization - That dialect is Ubi Sunt?. You recognize the quote from somewhere. A play, written way back in the Franconigerian century...
Electrochemistry - Beneath her waterproof raincoat and silk shirt is a body imbibed in Numb 12 perfume. You are suddenly and intimately aware of it.
You - "*And perswades them to addict themselues to his seruice...*"
Joyce Messier - "Ah, you know more than you let on..." She gives you a coy little smile. "Philosopher-Detective of Precinct 41."
You - (Nod.) "Devil Woman."
Harry is quoting from Daemonologie by King James VI (x)
Daemonologie [..]was first published in 1597[1] by King James VI of Scotland (later also James I of England) as a philosophical dissertation on contemporary necromancy and the historical relationships between the various methods of divination used from ancient black magic. [..]
Daemonologie included a study of demonology and the methods demons used to bother troubled men. The book endorses the practice of witch hunting.
This book is believed to be one of the main sources used by William Shakespeare in the production of Macbeth. (x)
the funniest thing is that I couldn't find Joyce's quote in Daemonologie. The sentence before Harry's quote is this:
Their mindes being prepared before hand, as I haue alreadie spoken, they easelie agreed vnto that demande of his: And syne settes an other tryist, where they may meete againe. At which time, before he proceede any further with them, he first perswades them to addict themselues to his seruice:
The only place I found that exact quote, was an article about Tony Blair, (published in 2014) (x), where he is described as some ancient evil demon. (it's pretty funny)
I think it's interesting how "Devil Woman" is mostly mentioned when there is something that reminds Harry of his ex
Joyce's perfume, which is "Sweet like the scent of chewing gum on some letter, long ago..."
Klaasje (blond young woman in disco era clothes, has birthmarks on her face - Dora had freckles)
Man from Hjelmdall and the Devil Woman book
another smell that is related to Dora is cinnamon
Apricot Chewing Gum Wrapper - There it is again -- the scent of apricots, with a touch of cinnamon. Smells like the end of some distant summer. The surface of another planet, or some ancient temple.
From Sacred and Terrible Air:
(..)was whispered into Fakkengaff鈥檚 ear by the very soul of debauchery. She had the white wings of an angel, but the breath against the disc jockey鈥檚 ear had been hot with passion, smelling of cinnamon and primal evil.
^ again with the evil thing (and aren't demons fallen angels?)
Daemonologie was written to endorse witch hunting and through the game there are times where Harry can say some pretty sexist stuff about women (calling them whores and devil women) so it's fitting
so. don't know where I'm going with this but pretty interesting stuff
