Crowley, the Serpent of Eden, humanity's first teacher (albeit unintentionally), feels an immediate sense of solidarity with this human.

"I suppose that depends on where you are," Crowley says. There had been places where a talking snake demon had been the epitome of evil. There had been other places where things had been quite the opposite.

"Are there any terrible side effects to what you're doing? Or is it just kind of like being a coroner where it's kind of weird and spooky but not by any stretch actually bad?"
