Gaining Significant Favor by The Infernal Sanctuary – Non-Fiction

Gaining Significant Favor

Once you have gained significant favor with a specific devil, or even decent status with a hierarchy, it can be difficult to know where to go from there, or if there are any steps that one can take to show their devotion. While there are a few options for the beginner, for those who have taken their time to foster a relationship with a Devil and have no doubt in their minds of their own intentions, an alignment may be the way to go.

An alignment, for lack of a better term, is a pact. An official binding agreement between a devil and a devotee, only to be sought out by those who have gained significant favor with a specific devil and are pure in their faith. This is a permanent binding of the soul to the devil, not a transaction (there was no sale), where a devotee swears their loyalty to a devil during a formal ritual.

Some have reported the development of a “nexus mind” in the wake of their alignment, where a devil and devotee can regularly commune without the need for an official summoning, linking the thoughts and abilities of a devil to the human for the human’s gain. The devil in question assures your commitment to them and in turn you reap abilities far beyond your usual scope.

These are not pacts made lightly or in haste, one must fully think this through before they commit themselves to something they do not fully grasp, therefore, you should not attempt to commit yourself to too many devils through an alignment. You may have more than one alignment, but if you perform too many, you will be seen as arrogant and thoughtless which will greatly harm your favor with any Devil.

This is especially true because of the fact that an alignment is not mandatory or even expected, this is something that you must seek out of your own accord and not something that will ever be offered to you because of its permanence and strength.

Please make all decisions regarding alignments carefully and with a level head, it is far too easy for people to find out about binding yourself to a devil in this manner and immediately take it as “selling your soul.” I hesitated in even sharing this information because I know that at least one person is going to attempt an alignment without thinking and damage their favor and status irreparably, but unfortunately, there is not much I can do about that other than to leave you with this final warning.

No Devil is going to ask you to sell your soul, no Devil is going to ask you to perform an alignment, and (thank Satan) if they deem you to be unprepared for such an act will refuse it entirely (though as I stated before you may damage your reputation beyond repair. This is “banishment” worthy.) and while I don’t wish that on anyone, it is unavoidable. Be safe, be respectful, and most importantly be smart.

May Lord Satan’s light guide you even in the darkest of times! Ave Satanas!
