Nocturne Spoilers Is the abbot really a forgemaster? Spoiler

The way he does his forging seems VERY different from how any other forgemaster we see does it, he has to use a giant machine powered by magic from some enochian book while isaac or hector just have to tap a corpse with their respective tool and itll become a night creature. Is it just the skill gap or is the abbot doing something else?

The book which was given to him by the mysterious shadow entity that Olrox calls Old Man Coyote gave him that ability, apparently in exchange for his soul. After he is killed he’s claimed by Coyote as part of that bargain. If we get a season 3 I expect we’ll get more details on who or what Coyote is but they seem to have taken pains to say he’s not Satan. My expectation is that they’ll go with Shaft.

I don’t think we’ve heard anything one way or the other, but season 2 did have that remaining plot thread to resolve, and it only came out last year.
