Demon Glass
The pane that looks back and invoices the sin
Demon glass is warm responsive shard-substance from Wound-sites, Wrath slag-plains, and Lust courts: contraband when raw, optical supply when useful.

One chained compendium, five kinds of condemnation
Five divisions of one chained compendium: Texts, Names, Sounds, Forms, and Lineages. Each has its own Purity quorum and seal; the faithful must obey what they may not read.

Inquisitor Breel

Jawbone Tone
One bone, two cells, and no lawful comparison

A Catalogue of Forbidden Names, Texts, and Silences
The rolling compendium of everything the Synod has declared unfit for human knowledge — books, names, songs, bloodlines, flavors of incense, and at least one species of moth.
