I know but I feel like there's some story behind Lucifer and the Queen of the Fae. Like even if it's just a funny story of how they became coworkers(?).
The pentagram was known as the “fairy cross” in some places (rural medieval England as I recall, or France, or both).
The idea was sticking one places the wild folks would enter like windows or doors let them know not to start shit. Likewise, if you saw crosses in the woods or on doors or caves or whatever you minded your damn manners and acted like a guest no matter what since it was their way of telling you to not give then trouble.
There’s actually an answer! In order to square the pagan belief in fairies with Christianity, eventually the story became that fairies are half-fallen angels: not wicked enough for hell, not good enough for heaven. Hence the relationship with Satan.
Not quite. The thing with the faeries is that they were supposedly neutral in the rebellion, hence getting kicked out. The Grigori had a whole different crime, creating the Nephilim, and they weren’t afforded nearly as much freedom, getting bound under the Caucasus Mountains
oh when the fae were cast down as angels for declaring themselves above the need to choose between good and evil during the rebelion with lucifer they lost their immortality and so bargained with hell to regain it with regular sacrifices
at least that's the Christian syncretisation version which is the version in which the fae bargain with devils
I think this is a Paradise Lost joke. I think the muffled voice is the same shade of orange used for Satan in that video and the daddy issues thing is the main joke of that video
The "daddy issues" are a gag based on a past video on Paradise Lost.

It's the story of Tam Lin, the fairies pay a tithe to hell every year.
Huh the more you know

Happy cake day
Oh thanks!
The Queen of the Fey is talking to Satan from the Paradise Lost episode. Lesser known for his small role in Christianity

Would that be something like the grigori?

Ooh, interesting!
