Garamond sat at the feet of the great bronze throne; every moment agony in the fires of the raging inferno. The pain steeled his spirit and fuelled his rage. He still had a few cards left to play on Earth. The Lilith sisters still ran amuck on the mortal plane, having escaped the great one's notice and his mortal agents still remained.

"I will return to Earth." Garamond whispered to himself. "I will have my vengeance, and I will have the head of the mortal who defied me mounted on a stick outside Hell's gates."
