Without a doubt, with Asmodeus launching a full-scale assault on the Seven Mounting Heavens, the ultimate war between good and evil had finally begun in earnest.
The addition of Demons, Yugoloths, and countless evil gods, along with the enormous successes achieved in the early stages of the war, was pushing this conflict to unprecedented heights.
