added infon on Archangel Michael, Dual Wielding and the potential Sequel Hook
Added DiffLines:
** A line from the prayer the Gargoyle Queen recites while the cathedral is under siege is from the prayer to St. Michael the Archangel, composed by Pope Leo XIII.
Added DiffLines:
* DualWielding: Killing demons for over two centuries makes Adam an expert in Doble Baston Eskrima. Other characters, like Gideon, do this too though, but with bladed weapons instead of sticks (at least when they're not attached to his axe). [[spoiler:Adam eventually uses Gideon's blades in the final battle.]]
Added DiffLines:
* SequelHook: [[spoiler:One of the demons working on the reanimation project successfully flees with a USB stick and all the research they did, meaning they can potentially recreate the process in any of the secret bases mentioned by Niberius]]

* GoodIsNotNice: The gargoyles are initially friendly to Adam with the exception of Gideon, but he doesn't care much for them. Later on, after several of them are killed because of him, they're much less nice, and even attack him at times.
