Aurelia's been quite invested in enabling Lucian to prance around doggy style, hasn't she? While Lucian himself is getting dangerously close to catching Belcourt's eye for real.

Oh it's long past that point. After that little debacle at the monastery Lucian is firmly on his radar.

What if Lucian's already possessed?

What do you mean? Like Lucas possessing original Lucian? I don’t see any demon possession seeing he can get blessings

It would be great if Lucian had a trick that would work against the golemancer, but there hasn't been much set up in this direction, and Lucian doesn't have much on hand. The only method of containing demonic energy in a usable form that we know of is the inquisitor's mark. Demons seem to mostly be made up of that energy. There are a few possibilities. Lucian might be able to use his Formless Essence to mimick the energy or function of the mark, grab the golemancer during the possession, and stick the guy in the mark. Or, if the mark can't contain the golemancer, maybe Lucian could create some other kind of binding that works in the same way as the mark, and trap the golemancer with that. That method would need regular maintenance, though, because Formless Essence isn't permanent. But Lucian hasn't prepared for any of this at all, and unless he gets lucky, he's more likely to fail. Not to mention how powerful the golemancer is, and his knowledge of how the mark works. Also, I imagine the golemancer would use his eyes to check Lucian for any tricks. Or maybe he'll just be overconfident. Maybe soothsayer blessing could help clutch this somehow?

So… so far we have Lucian getting a redemtion arc, Brutus getting a quick one after attacking Lucian, Lydia doesn’t count because it was a fake one that was really for self benefit and involved lies, and depending on your view, Cyrus either is redeeming himself for all the poor demons he killed instead of trying to be diplomatic with, or he will betray the demons later on for a redemption arc. Anyone I missed?
