There's a strong element of the fantastical in this part that's quite enjoyable, particularly in the sudden appearance and eerily whimsical speech patterns of Lilly and Analise. The old man in his wide brimmed hat makes for a fun dichotomy, too. His appearance speaks to that of an old inquisitor or preacher readying for an exorcism, which then adds a sense of surprise when we see him use magics and reference knowledge firmly rooted in nature lore. It's a small but clever way to play with expectations, adding just that little bit of extra flavor to this world.
