The Ultimate Guide on Heaven and Hell

"You need to fill in some blanks for me." you say to Mastema, you're sat in his office watching him flick through more files. He passes one across to you.

"This one's about the war if you really want to readup, pretty boring stuff, it's just a bit of fun we have." he says with a shrug, leaning back.

"Can you sum it up for me?"

"I could, but I don't really want to. In fact I've done enough for you Mr. Fallen Angel, I stuck my neck out for you and it's time you start repaying."

"I don't know what you want from me!" you say, exasperated.

Mastema sighs and stands up, he then begins pacing backwards and forwards behind his desk as he begins to explain to you.

"Well, we have this little soiree with Heaven once every thousand years in a little place we like to call the Abyss - that way nobody gets hurt who isn't involved." he says with a bored roll of his eyes.

You find it difficult to hide your disappointment at the fact the battle isn't actually in Heaven, but you manage to soldier on. Mastema goes into detail about past battles and how exciting they are, and how you might not have a taste for battle yet but when you leave for an eternity there's nothing as fun as putting your life on the line.

"Alright, and who's this Baal guy?" you ask inquisitively.

Mastema gives you a pointed look, "You've never heard of Baal? One of the seven princes of Hell? I don't really have time or patience to talk about things you should already know, Charlie. Really. Ask something better."

"Okay.. why do you need me?"

"Welllll.." Mastema begins, "I just so happened to die in the last millennial war and lost my entire army because of it soo.." he says, thinking of what to say next, "right now you're my entire army." he finishes with a shrug.

"Your entire army?!" you stammer out, "won't we die?"

"Maybe, maybe not." he says with another shrug.

"What happens if we do?"

"Asking the important questions! You spend a long, long, lonnnng time in a nice little place called Purgatory."

"What happens if we do go there?"

"Oh Charlie, save me some of my sanity please. Read the fucking book." Mastema says as he rubs his temples, "I just hope your secret plan works, we need you powerful."
