Thanks. Doing my best... still working on the conclusion; Oannes' full
write up will actually be more of an aftermath.

Interesting. The way it was going in my head, by reaching out
selflessly while in Hell, Nybbas was on the path to Redemption
already. He really had no one to go Renegade from, save probably The
Game and Lucifer himself, but within the safety of his office, he was
systematically rejecting his own Word and his demonic nature at the
same time. Shutting things down and shattering his heart were the last
ties holding him in his created state. If one wants to argue he was
not yet an angel, and that an Archangel's direct efforts are necessary
for a Redemption... I suppose this is fast and loose.

Well, apart from heading up the New Crusade, yeh <wink>....

If one is going off the supposition that Nybbas is still a Demon
Prince, then likely after whatever climactic battle to push back
Saminga--and Belial--assuming he survives. If he does... I don't have
Superiors 3 to hand. Doesn't Gabriel have a Servitor Attunement called
'Storyteller,' or something, that inspires an audience by the tale
told...?
