(in case anyone cares)

In my translation of the incantation, it should have been abominate (vocative), not abominatus (nominative). Also, I missed a word: the original said "fair canon", but I forgot to translate "fair": pulcher would be appropriate.

Have you even seen what it does to Spanish? The grammar is suddenly dropped out of a trapdoor, and it just gets... weird after that.

I'm with the other guys- don't use Google Translate!

This is really late now, because I thought I posted this several days ago.

That Latin translation is something that I think Kelok would actually use. He is good with languages and it's appropriate to canon. All the well educated people spoke Latin in Sherlock Holmes' time. I bet I could even find a fic that throws in a few Latin terms to make it extra appropriate.

None of my agents have ever used a whisk, but they do normally draw the circle, and often light the candles depending on time and strength of their foe. They usually have some sort of large bell or other source of noise, and canon source materials that they whack the affected canons about the head with while shouting various imprecations. Then they fairly frequently lob the canon source material through the wraith (phantom) to dissipate it. Of course, tying up the canons before setting this ritual up is always a good idea, too.

I did remember a whisk used in exorcism missions, so I asked the Wiki and it says: Flip Finley’s “Weapon of choice is a three-foot whisk (it is believed that she started the trend of using whisks as exorcism tools).”

The whisk was actually only used in two missions many years ago, and nobody ever followed this trend.

Intentionally ruin the canon source in an exorcism? I’ve never seen this.

Now I should really go to work on my introductory post.

I was not paying that much attention to details other than the usual "The power of [creator] compels you" invocation; thanks for reminding me that there is more to the formal exorcism than that.
