What beast of oppression does your section fall under and why? Sections 8.9 and 8.10 fall under the leopard. The leopard represents malice and fraud. The people from circle 8.9 are sowers of discord, malice means to be sneaky and lie about things. The sowers of discord are sneaky because they lie to people to start wars and fights between families, religion and politics. The fraudulent sinners of circle 8.10 faked their gold and tried to create false objects, that is clearly a fraudulent act, this matches the leopard directly. The leopard signifies the two sins of these circles extremely well and concisely.
