Most of TMAGP fandom: oh this is so fun, I wonder when does Georgie show up, is it Web-Coded? Sam/Celia or Celia/Alice, maybe Alice/Sam/Celia polycule??
Me, having too much coffee and unsupervised access to alchemy books: The agents of fear in this universe are trying to bring forth "the age of Antichrist", a concept spoken of in 14th century Franciscan Spirituals writing that urged alchemy to develop in an attempt to stop it, and they want to do that by blending all the fears together in a "perfect ratio" using the pieces of entities that got transported here from previous universe, thus bringing back the Primal Fear all The Entities came from in TMA universe. They want to access Freddie since he's based on medieval Islamic alchemical textbook called "The Book of Balances" by Jābir ibn Ḥayyān that cross references different metals in attempt to find the ratio for gold, this is also related to what Magnus Institute in this universe was doing, either looking for literal Antichrist child, possible alchemists to develop the field or looking for Messiah who was also mentioned in alchemical writings as an allegory for a Philosopher's Stone, also Alice/Sam/Celia polycule??
