...King Crimson Reqiuem...you are so beautiful. Truly crafted by God's own hands. None of them stood a chance...the Epitaph is perfect now. You are the true culmination of both the Arrow and even Pucci's own techniques...though that fool of a man will never amount to anything.
The Catalyst served her role now. But it is time to finish our work, Reqiuem. Trish's soul will slowly die without Her, but we still wish to end her life by our own hands. It is only right that we do the work in erasing all that was left of that time.
Mother, soon you will be no more. Finally, the Devil shall be free from Hell.
[[ OOC: EXPLINATION TIEM!
Okay, the result of Diavolo's ritual is basically a combination of existing canon techniques for powering up Stands. The first and formost is using a soul catalyst in order to achive a Requiem Stand, in which a soul is cycled back into the Stand's spiritual energy in order to forcefully evolve it. Often times this is done with the user's own soul, but Diavolo specifically needed another for the delicateness of this ritual. Trish was originally going to serve this role as well as the second part, but Hokuto offered herself in Trish's place.
The second part was using the soul-infused Arrow (this is why Hokuto died instantly, rather than bleeding to death), to stab Trish (whom miraculously lived), in order to REMOVE her Stand, Spice Girl (Enrico Pucci, in Jojo's Part 6, does this by having his Stand remove the Stand disc of a person). He then fused Spice Girl with King Crimson Reqiuem to make an even STRONGER evolotuon of the Stand.
King Crimson's time erasure and bending power tie in with Diavolo's own desire to erase evidence of his existance from the world by killing all his relatives and those who know his true name and face. This ALL goes back to his past, where Diavolo and Doppio originally split into seperate personalities in the first place.
Diavolo was born to his mother in prison, miraculously without a known conception. The priest who ended up taking Diavolo in saw this as a grave and terrible sign, and in spite of appearing as a kind and benevolent man to Diavolo, ended up burrying Diavolo's mother alive beneath the foundation of a house he and Diavolo were building together, perhaps for some sort of exorcistic purpose. After the innocent and childlike Diavolo (19 at the time) finds the body of his mother, he snaps and burns the entire building with the Priest tied up inside. This begins the massive descent into insanity that Diavolo goes through, and by some supernatural means he is able to place all of his past self before the incident into Doppio, who appears as Diavolo did at that young age (though Doppio appears about three or five years younger physically than he should).
Diavolo views life as Hell, and himself as the Devil. He is attempting to "escape" Hell and find his Eden, that being a world where he no longer has to remember the events of his youth that caused him to be this way.
MELLO MUN, you are free to deduct things like this from whatever evidence he might find available. Get creative, yo! ]]
