“If you truly desire the combined knowledge of the world, you must first learn to speak the world’s languages,” the demon informs you.

He places a scaly red finger against your temple and suddenly your mind erupts with newfound knowledge. You try speaking in French, Japanese, Sanskrit and Alphanumeric code and the words come to you instantly in any language you attempt.

“Amazing!” you exclaim, “My intellect shall tower over all!”

The demon shakes its head, knowingly.

“Just remember,” it says, “that pride often comes before the fall.”
