knowing nothing of philosophy, what if the reason demons tell you nothing of
the Other Side and nothing Useful about the Cruel Ones is because we just
don't have the language for it?
In a sort of Invisibles esque take, you could have the cells who are
orientated towards finding the words that are possible to describe the Cruel
Ones...
Which does, to use some useful terms, "some hella fucked up shit, man" to
the univese et al.
You're not supposed to be able to describe the undescribable...
