Hoaqin is the only known person to explicitly enter a "contract" (if you wanna call it a contract) with a 'demon'. I can't recall anyone else doing so. Which does make me wonder how/where exactly "demons/devils" fit in the Tower. Guardians are the physical gods that rule over the essence of the Tower itself, so what does that make these 'demons/devils' ?

There are those that are greatly implied to have been relatively powerful even before the Zahard Empire arrived (e.g. Molic One, Grace Mirchea Luslec). From that I theorise that making contracts with the respective Guardian of a Floor might've been plausible pre-Zahard Empire, but asking for the license to travel to another Floor would've been impossible, for whatever reason. There's not much for me to base the theory on, but there it is. Then again, if these 'demons/devils' actually do enter contracts with people, then that could've been a way for people to gain power pre-Zahard Empire. However since the only example we have of a 'demon's contract' is from a Great Family descendent rather than a true Tower native, I wonder if my previous sentence could apply.
