[QUOTE="Joshua Randall, post: 9602980, member: 7737"] [B]192[/B] [[I]I will quote this section in full because of how important it is to our knowledge, or anti-knowledge, of Pazuzu.[/I]] "I have no idea what that thing was, nor how Arno managed to summon it from its statue," you tell Garn. "you're right, though, about the level of magic which would be required if it were a demon. I'm sure that neither Arno nor I have enough knowledge to control a real demon, or even to summon one from its natural plane." "Perhaps Arno didn't actually summon it, and isn't controlling it either," Dalris suggests. "What do you mean?" asks the paladin. "I mean simply that the demon -- if that's what this 'Pazuzu' is -- may have summoned himself for some reason, and may be controlling Arno rather than the opposite." Dalris's idea makes excellent sense, and you chastise yourself silently for not thinking of it first. "That's a brilliant idea," you congratulate the bard. "But it'd make Arno just the stooge of an evil entity so powerful that nothing could stop it. I need to talk to some of my father's closest friends and fellow wizards at College Arcane. They might know of a way to stop Pazuzu, whoever or whatever it is." "Then you should leave at once for Seagate Island," urges Garn. "The sooner we know how to fight this menace, the better."
