"This is how it must be, and SHOULD be, God said. And there will be no war with Lucifer, because he has already woven the strands of his own destruction. Woven them so tightly and so well that Heaven need do naught but watch."
Paradiso 1/3: Lucifer has broken the gate to the void into a million gates, and people and beings who are not happy with the status quo are moving to his realm of creation. In the meantime his adversaries are also working against him, putting one of his friends in danger.
