Not sure how a boy saying "daddy" is creepy as opposed to a girl, but go ahead. Maybe we'll learn a gender, maybe those things are genderless to begin with, no telling as of right now. I'm sure we all default to something, no big deal.

In the meantime, need to think up a head-canon voice.

Sounds right then, The Nothingness was all about forgeting and if Breel is lost and hard to find it could be like a personal hell for our own Milton. Clever connection if we're right.

Hehehe, First, We are introduced to a huge demon -The Forgotten, aka. Makuta Teridax Jr.- and now, we meet an unused spectre from the game "Heart of Darkness". Brilliant!

On that note, Heart of Darkness is a game I playe a while ago where a kid's dog gets kidnapped by a flying demon/spectre, so He literally goes to... ahem, the "Kingdom of Darkness" (aka. Hell) to rescue Him, only to be chased around by a bunch of spectre class demons of "all kinds". I was so inspired by the game's depiction of hell that I plan to make a spectre demon class for my Bionicle fanfic as well. Maybe even make them an enemy in a doom style game. Who would've thought that I'm going to see a similar concept used in Housepets? While yes, the "spectre dino" here is labelled "demon", it is SOOOOO similar -albeat in a dino way- to Heart of Darkness' spectres -except those in the game possess green eyes and mouths, and are more gooey, probably- that I just couldn't help but notice. Sorry for the rambling, guys, I just gave my two-cents on that spectre-dino-demon-kid-thing.

Maybe not-Breel is an imp, a lesser demon or the equivalent of a lost soul. Unlike the Heaven-dwellers, the little critter can't get to the terrestrial world without an "escort".

Oh my gosh, what if Breel has forgotten Keene?

Pro tip: don't go swimming in the river Lethe.

Or...if you do...write down where to find you car keys!

Personally I think it looks more like a Heartless from Kingdom Hearts. A strange solid mass of darkness that looks and sounds like they're made of some kind of fiber. Often having jagged or swirly patterns, particularly for their mouths. The spectres from Heart of Darkness are also a really good pick though

KOBOLD!

yes.. I registered just to say that....

What the heck ~ It's too early to say, but let's say that demon ends up really being a character we already know... what if it's Maxwell? =P

Maxwell? Well, considering the time Dialation, with weeks in Hell taking minutes outside, it might be possible for some of the party to try and get in... But this only adds to the question if that is the case:

What happened, to require Team Sandwich/Paperbag, or individual members to follow Keene into Hell? And why a Kobold? Did Maxwell change classes, or is that a representation of him, showing what he is under his need to be a "Bad Boy" of a person, wanting affection, or maybe having daddy issues? Hek, maybe this could actually be other members of the party, like Lester, Tarot or maybe even Mungo!

And before you have a go, please read this, I am just following what you "Jokingly" Theorized, And going over the possibilities.

The truth is, we really don't know what the scroll Maxwell used was - Keene said it summoned him(Keene), but i noticed a neat little detail: Tarot didn't know what the scroll did either. You would assume she would have more knowledge beforehand than Keene what it did, but it's safe to say he had the time and money to figure it out. But the real question is: How? How did he find that out? Karishad? And since we know a recently seen gag is that Maxwell can't speak spanish perfectly, it's possible he messed up when he read the translation. What are the consequences of messing up that scroll? Or was there a price to pay for summong Keene that Keene didn't know about? Maybe Maxwell traded places with him =P

I just assumed it switched them as an anti-telefrag safeguard. Which would put him in the mansion.

That being one other question - would Maxwell be seen as a burglar or as a guest?

What if it's somebody's mom ???
