Michael & Devin: ⚖️ Christian Symbolism
'The Archangel Michael Overthrowing Lucifer' - Francesco Maffei (d. 1656)
Because I love me some Biblical references, here is my favourite one. FTO!Michael and Devin who symbolise Archangels, Michael and Lucifer. ⚔️

"When even the one closest to you fails you— the only place you have to turn now is The Garden. Find yourself in the true place of God's [Tranquility]" - Devin/Eden's book: 'Tranquility'

Michael is the Archangel Michael, the Warrior of God and Leader of God's armies. 🛡
Devin is Lucifer, the Fallen Angel, who famously fought Michael and God's army and lost. 🪞
Lucifer's Pride (the first sin) caused him to rebel against God, he desired to become God himself, to take the Throne of Heaven. Eden, who is Devin's ego and pride, believed he should've become Grimshade's Guild Leader...
Eden/Devin fight Michael and lose...

The Garden of Genesis is a clear reference to the Garden of Eden from the Genesis. 🍎
Genesis means Beginning of Something hence why Eden's Office looks like Grimshade's office. Grimshade is where it all began after all...

"I guess it's kind of ironic, isn't it Eden... Devin. That you believe yourself to be a God, and I'm a God Slayer. I guess that's how it's meant to be." - Michael in S4, GRIMSHADE SECRETS!!
I know this was probably really obvious. 😅
