"I wish Lilith were here, as strange as that sounds. She might have some idea," Sabrina says, small and wistful. "You can banish a demon, but I'm not sure what it would take to banish the devil himself. I used to think it was possible, but..."

She gives a miserable little shrug.

"There are little things that I used when I was resisting his summons back in Greendale, but he just upped the ante until I was ready to listen. My aunts and Ambrose and I, we tried an ambush and to just kill him but..."

Sabrina trails off again, more distant, trying to recall what had been one of the worst moments of her life. "We didn't have the-- the lance of something."

There are a number of holy relics Marcus can think of, although he can't imagine any of them would be easily accessible, even if they weren't stuck in this strange pocket dimension. He has his own weapons, his Bible, Mother Bernadette's crucifix, bottles of holy water, but Sabrina is right. Marcus doesn't know if he can banish the devil.

But then, he's never been one to back down from a challenge before.

"Does he react to holy symbolism?" he asks, knowing their worlds are different. "If I doused him with holy water, would he react?" He needs as much information as possible. They all do.

"If it were strong enough, maybe. The-- this lance, I'm pretty sure it's a holy relic of some kind. I would feel more confident if I understood more about what I am," she says, carefully, as if she expects to cut herself on her words at any moment. "A witch cannot go onto hallowed ground, but is that because they're contracted to him? Lilith was a witch before she met him, and magic can exist without his influence."

She rubs her hands nervously. "I was able to enter the church and fight the angels because I was half-mortal and baptized. But I'm not half-witch, I'm half... whatever he really is."

Sabrina lets out a slow breath, fighting to keep her feelings in check, and mostly succeeding. "I can touch a cross, but I don't know about things like holy water."

"In no world would God think you're evil, duck," he says softly, reaching out to touch Sabrina's arm. "You have to remember, whatever else he does, whatever choices he makes, Lucifer is an angel. What makes him evil are the ways in which he decides to behave. How he treats people. Those aren't the choices you're making and I suspect... well, learning about yourself is all well and good and I would encourage it, but I don't believe it will relate directly to him."

They're not their parents, after all. Neither of them are.

"I'll bring what I can to this fight," he promises. "Everything I can. We'll figure it out, you and me and Sam. Kat, too, you know she'll help any way she can." She's become something of an expert after all this time, he knows.
