@InterdimensionalSideEye this alone would be worth the trip to Stockholm
@robingoodfellow I actually agree.
@Marielaveau oooh the ars goetia.…isn’t that the one with the 75 demon names?
@InterdimensionalSideEye its a grimore on how to conjure the 72 demons King Solomon sealed away. I never read it myself but i use to have a friend that read and used the book. I flipped through her book, she acted like she didn't want me to touch it. I thought about getting the book for myself a few years ago since im already aware of some of the demons in it. But never did.

@JimboSaturn Totally. The monk was to be walled in and to avoid this he promised to write a book of the history of the world in a night. So at midnight, he realised he couldn’t do it and made a deal with the devil, who of course helped him. That’s the myth. The experts say that the entire book would have taken about 20 years to illustrate and pen. It was. also written by the same person. It’s the biggest book of its kind. I loved the illustrations in it also.

@InterdimensionalSideEye Interesting I didn't know any of this either.
@JimboSaturn I’m a fountain of knowledge😂
