Ref for Almonde when she drops the mother facade

Notes:

• Devils are ranked by the church going from Lesser to Dire to Elder in ascending order of strength. Almonde, or Baphomet according to their bestiary, stands among the Elder Devil class near its pinnacle at the moment.

• She's technically weaker than she should be due to the damage to her core, a manifestation of a devil's lifeforce that hangs like a halo above their heads. Even the slightest chip should mean instant death for any devil but for Almonde it's more akin operating with a constant fever (hence why her core temperature is fairly warm 24/7).

• Familiar sword is familiar for those who know. It only activates for her (as its maker) and Mikhail (or anyone with his core). The sword has no name and cannot kill a human being so Almonde only brings it out when facing specific devils of similar or higher strength.
