2* The Bloody Nine is the reason you should never break The First Law. It IS from the other side.
3** Lending credence to that theory is the fact that the one person Bloody-Nine identifies as being on its side is Ferro; who has demonic blood herself.
4** The fact that the Tower of the Maker rejects Logen when he tries to cross the bridge, but attracts Ferro, is proof Logen doesn't actually have demon blood.

8Vitari's pet name for him is "Cas" (also a name given to one of their children), and it is kind of striking that Bayaz seems to have a particularly low opinion of King Casmir in the ''First Law'' books, referring to him as a coward. It seems plausible that Casmir/Shenkt was like the kings after him, one of Bayaz's pawns, but unlike the kings after him, was allowed to be more of an equal in power (hence the sorcerer/cannibal abilities). Eventually, Casmimir/Shenkt refused to comply with Bayaz's demands and became a DefectorFromDecadence- hence why Bayaz refers to him as a coward and chose more maleable kings in the future, like Jezal.
