Our foe is Karrien, Lord of War -- who slew the sons of the Morningstar! Who killed a million demon boys! Who stamped them down like they were toys. Who -- let's face it -- sure is tough! I can't pretend it won't get rough! But he's like anyone alive... He can bleed. And he can die!

Synopsis for "Longest Day part 1"

Karrien Excalibris, Archangel of War, has had enough of Hell. Ever since Lucifer abandoned is post, chaos has ruled, spilling over into the other realms. He rallies Heaven's forces, determined to storm the Inferno and restore order to the universe. With no leadership in the Pit, the Lords of Hell beseech a disconsolate and apathetic Etrigan to lead the pitiful armies of Hell. Fortunately, beating some sense into the Prince of Hell kindles his irascible nature, not only rousing his own fervour, but inspiring the Hellions to take up arms and fight for freedom. To war!
