A malakims lament

In the not quite the beginning

"In the middle ages, everyone was much happier. Well, not the humans obviously...no they died alot and got sick, but well...you know us angels and them demons, we were happier you know. At least back then you knew where you were. You found a demon and you killed it, we made saints back then, actual saints. Soldiers of light would rally to our cause, whole armies....oh those were the days."

"Its not like that now...all this subterfuge and trickery, damn it makes a malakims blood boil thinking of all the evil thats been overlooked because of the big picture...Dominics the big problem of course, his crusade never ended, if only we had someone sensible who understand what it was really like down here, like michael, but no we got stuck with that fop Laurence...well better make do with what we have i guess. Anyways back to work...this cold war crap was more entertaining when it was just the humans doing it..."

"Time moved on from open celestial warfare, the days of the crusades are long since over. Now in the 21st century angels and demons fight for souls in the urban sprawls, the workplaces and schools and even on the internet. The world has changed dramatically since the balance of power between each of the superiors was reached and with it, new alliances, new perspectives, new powers rise and old ones fight grimly to survive in a modern world. Some of the attitudes and views of the superiors that might differ from what you were taught up in Yves library or on field assignments is below, take it from me...its not all as they told you."

Superiors

In this day of age its important to consider the balance of power. After his trial, Michael has lost alot of his influence, Gods intercession might of saved him but it didn't absolve his sins nor clear his name and since then, alot of the seraphim council have refused to heed his calls. Laurence, supreme commander of the angelic host, naive, foppish but a good strategist none the less fights on with wise davids support. The ineffeble Yves resides as always in his tower, quiet and watchful. Jeans realm has intensified with the advent of computers...although noones quite sure if he's happy or annoyed that such an invention made it to the realm of mortals.

In the ranks of the demons two names are the most prominent, Kronos and Baal, master strategist and real time tactician respectively. Taking control of the armed legions of the morning star these two have cut a swathe through angelic forces time and time again proving just how dangerous demons are when united. Fortunately they still have their differences and the majority of the other princes despise this sharing of power...particularly belial who's feeling particularly used. Haaganti as always could care less and its been rumoured that the first wife of paradise has instructed her followers to avoid Baalites and kronites. Why? who knows...But one things for sure, nothing lilith does is without its price. And in the dark corners of hell lies once little vapula, weak, fragile...yet his brilliantly twisted followers have intensified their attempts in the digital age...and his machinations are many fold

Extra details

The world of celestial politics is a confusing one...even the seraphim council have their own agenda and thats not even getting into demonic policies. what is publicly known and understood is not necessarily the complete truth, as they say, plans within plans within plans.

Oh, and someone keep Litheroy away from the...actually just everything important
