the demon and the priest are not the same person, they just look a lot alike. there's no real age gap or power imbalance, don't worry.
no, the demon and the former priest are not the same person; the demon just looks like the former priest because michael sees him as that (michael's ideal form/type), it's mentioned in chapter 1
OHHH THAT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE
whew, thank you!
i entirely forgot the bit about his appearance being specifically what michael wants to see
yeah it's mentioned very briefly so i can see why it's easy to forget
if u dont mind age gap, scroll. but i'm concerned bc they def knew each other when they were both alive. clearly, the old man michael (which is unfortunately also my dad's name) was a child or at least really young when he met what seems to be the human version of Az. we saw younger michael (maybe he was a teen idk) giving human(?) az head, so im concerned if bro is a pedophile. lmk i'm reading too into this or if yall interpreted it differently. i dont like the power imbalance if i'm right. some ppl wont mind this but i kinda do loll
