Sorry this is so late, finals attacked and I was too busy to be creative.
Concentrate holy mana in my eyes and hands for protection, and carefully open up the Demonicon
[hidden roll is hidden] [5 (roll for protection)] [4] You open the Demonicon after preparing for any sort of unforeseen contingencies.
"So another Zealot seeks my knowledge. How ironic, when your own limited faculties fail you, you turn to a demon for information about other demons." says the book directly into your mind, the pages flip without your moving it, to a seemingly blank page where the conversation is recorded in thin black ink.
"I seek knowledge about the Demon Lord Kazzamier, book." you say and watch as your words are recorded down in front of you. The book seems to pause for a second as if thinking.
"I'll tell you what I know, mortal. Kazzamier is the lord of Entropy and Disorder. He's always had a particular loathing for your goddess Sareesa and her beloved world that she still fights to protect. He is perhaps one of the longest reigning Lord of Entropy in the Nether. He was first sighted by mortals in 675 S.A. by your reckoning. He has been summoned to your world multiple times, each time, returning to the Nether more powerful than the last. As a true demon lord, his weakness is simple, divine magic will take him down as easily as any other demon. Now begone mortal." says the book as it flips closed and floats back to the shelf you got it down from. You have a feeling even if you got it down again, the book wouldn't respond to any of your queries.
Hmm, where could she have gone? Maybe she's not even the best person to ask... I stop for a few moments to think things over, then look for a fortune teller instead. Assuming they're legitimate, a fortune teller should have experience with these kinds of things.
[4] You head out away from the temple, not wanting to try and look for the Priestess. You elect to find a mystic of some kind, and eventually you do. The mystic is a fairly young looking troll with green skin. His eyes are pure-white, and you're not entirely certain, but he appears to be blind. It would certainly seem he is half-way between this world and the spirit world.
scan over the trolls notes, if they tell me what things the books contain then look at the scrolls, be prepared for anything.
[3] You begin to look over the Troll's notes, most of them are so in-depth and relate to topics you're not really acquainted with the topics they mention. After looking them over, you realize you still aren't much more informed about how to fight demonic possession than simply how to fight demons, though you very well could have missed the topic in all the complex terminology.
Search the city to see if there is anyone who can help translate the book.
[2] You search around the city for anyone who might have knowledge of foreign languages. You discover most of the people in this town only speak either Common, Troll, or Both, depending on their back-ground and you're fairly certain they would be of no help in translating the book.
Go to the to the bookstore(s) to look for a book on translating the language.
[2] You enter the book store and ask the Troll there about any books about ancient languages. He replies "'Dose kinds of books not be havin' much use here. You probably have to puzzle through it yourself, or be gettin' specialist assistance. Sorry." He says, looking warily towards the back room.
Continue perusing the where-abouts of the temple priestess. Because who knows what their beliefs are on sex and relationships!
[4] Well, the best course of action would be finding one of the people trapped in the temple with her and seeing what they know. You go to a house nearby that you believe you saw one of the refugees from the temple go into.
[5] You knock on the door, there is no response. This is the only house you remember seeing somebody from the temple go into.

Everyone other than Frelock and Khan, might want to send me something about feats here in the near future while I'm ridiculously un-busy with updating inventories.
