In Defiance of Heaven

A year after the revelation that both Lucifer and Adonai had been manipulating him for centuries, Niccolo lost whatever compassion he had left. Millions of people have been sacrificed to his Black Death to create an army that would fight against God, and his friends have watched as he has spiraled out of control.

As much as they want to bring him back from the edge, it is obvious that they need Niccolo's brand of monster in order to stand a chance against Adonai. Before they can even make it to the Gates of Heaven, they must travel through Purgatory and confront gods and monsters beyond comprehension. It is doubtful they will survive the battle for humanity's existence, but it is a sacrifice they are willing to make.

After all, if they fail, there will be no tomorrow.
