No, I don't. Besides, why would a Servant need such things?

Of course, this is strictly my own, personal interpretation. Other Servants may feel entirely differently.

It could be that Father fellow, The Old Man in the Corner, The Thinking Machine, or a certain orangutan-nabbing detective that predates even Holmes.

And outside the realm of fiction, one need look no further than France's Eugène-François Vidocq, or the U.S.'s Allan Pinkerton.

There is more to Holmes than being a great detective. In this case, he has one other hugely important aspect:

2024-11-22 04:05:42 +00:00

He's also a witness.

As one of the Foreign God's Disciples, he, of course, must have had some degree of involvement with her.
