Artist's commentary
Cherubim et Imp 👼😈
Image Description
Minions
Familiars, once sovereign beings, fell prey to mortal meddling in the arcane, succumbing to a fate of servitude. Coveted by world figures, they exist to the bidding of their summoners. The speakers inscribe that to be earthbound, one must engage in an act of blasphemy— the ritual séance binding.
Requesting the audience of cherubim demands many an offering, including the ensemble of four heads symbolizing man, ox, eagle, and lion; apocalyptic scrolls I, II, and III; and feathers and hooves harvested from a homunculus.
Conversely, the imp demands a select few items, rare and sought after; these include a witch's trichobezoar, the polycerate horns of a jackal, and the skin of a Nephilim.
Yet, the pursuit of such occult prowess does not come without consequence. Two of the only captors ever documented in the Daemonia et Angelus chronicle were but a pontiff and a figurehead of the occult— both of whom lost their humanity in exchange for celestial dominion.
