THE ADVENTURE OF MEPHISTOPHELES
The symbol is an eye with three triangles above it and a big tear. The meaning of this symbol is rather confusing, although it can be interpreted that the eye is a symbol of truth.The three triangles may symbolize the mystery, companionship and fearless nature
On the other hand Mephistopheles is one of 7 demon of Medieval Demonology! It is said that, Mr.
Faust, the protagonist of a classic German legend, based on the historical Johann Georg Faust (c. 1480–1540), is bored and depressed with his life as a scholar. After an attempt to take his own life, he calls on the Devil for further knowledge and magic powers with which to indulge all the pleasure and knowledge of the world. In response, the Devil's representative, Mephistopheles, appears. He makes a bargain with Faust: Mephistopheles will serve Faust with his magic powers for a set number of years, but at the end of the term, the Devil will claim Faust's soul, and Faust will be eternally enslaved. So Our symbol of truth cries, but the door of mystery and power opens once again..
