Demons & Angels is considered one of the nexus stories in the Sylum Universe, outside the Main Arcs.
This story is one of the biggest and most influential turning points in the series. It sets up: new characters, relationships, and future storyline.
It’s also takes place within 12 hours, and introduces two major characters who have, and will continue, to influence Sylum.
Patrick McKenna
Ernesto Olivetti
Ernesto’s story continues in Roads Untraveled …. leading to the introduction of Andrew Kiernan and Pius XVII, further characters who have become beloved over time.
Due to the recent Sylum headcanon changes concerning Sam Winchester now being Theo … no longer Meridia … both these stories needed to be looked at. They were already on the ‘need to look at’ list considering changes in Canon from the 10th Anniversary Clan War Edition.
We were going to wait until Clan War was finished, but the latest chapter has been a pain in the ass for a while so we took a break and focused on these two.
And we all know how Ernesto gets when he wants attention!
There weren’t a lot of changes, subtle moments that enhanced an already amazing story and small threads of things to come. For those who’ve read this story more than once – see if you can find the differences.
I can’t say how much I love this story, enough.
No seriously.
It’s one of those stories you catch yourself while reading, going – what happens next? Even though you know what happens next. It’s beautifully written, the characters are engaging, and it makes you want to just curl up with a cup of tea and keep reading.
I can’t even watch the movie anymore … well I can but I stop at Fire … cause I just refuse to watch the WTF ending. Dan Brown should be shot for the ‘oh my god lets shock you with the most shocking of shocking endings cause you didn’t see that shocking conclusion’. We didn’t see it coming because it was STUPID!
Sorry – small rant there.
I thank the movie for two things: Ewan McGregor in a cassock, and introducing me to Pierefrancesco Favino.
So back to the the reason for this post.
