The Devil will not tolerate any opposition from his employees.

Really, he has a lot in common with the corporate executives of our time.

There was once a princess in Goslar who was so beautiful that her own father lusted after her and sought to marry her!

It took the combined efforts of the Virgin Mary and the Devil to get her out of this mess.

As any #CallOfCthulhu veteran knows, old books you've inherited bring nothing but trouble.
You should keep them under lock and key - or perhaps even burn them, just to be safe.
