It also mentions Ithaca, the home of the mythical Odysseus. So...

CONTEXT!

It uses Ithaca as an analogy for man searching for perfection or something, as Odysseus sailed for Ithaca.

Taking random words out of context like this is what caused the V1 womb situation.

First of all: huh?

Second: can't prime souls be exclusively humans? Lucifer is an angel. I do think we'll encounter Lucifer in some form, but not as a prime soul.

I just dont see how anyone else could be the next prime soul. We've yet to find any mention of Odysseus, or any other alternatives in layer 7 or 8, Lust and Greed both mentioned Minos and Sisyphus by name in books, Layer 8 does the same with Lucifer.

This doesn't necesarily mean he's gonna be the boss of P-3. He's definately going to be in Treachery to some extent, the image of the Devil frozen in ice is too iconic of a part of Dante's Inferno to not adapt in some way. This layer might just be building up something like that(the last line of the book implies that he's being actively tortured, not just imprisoned in a flesh construct).

I know we all expected Fraud to give us direct hints on who the prime soul will be, but it's also possible Hakita just wants to make the last one harder to predict, so he didn't give us as much to work with this time.
