And then he sat. And all was right with Inferno!

Up above, things weren’t going so well. The endless celebrations,

dancing, marauding, and parades had created quite a mess. Who

knew that by banishing the Overlord the gods might actually

have to come up with their own rules? But, as gods do, they

discovered a way to outsource the work.

The gods decreed that the Underlord would serve a purpose

trapped in Inferno. He became a collector of unwanted and

forgotten rubbish from above. Lost souls, buried treasure, even

single socks became his domain. But, a loophole in the gods’

rules (such amateurs!) allowed the Underlord to perpetuate evil

and mischief, these things also being unwanted.

In time, when parents told their children to be good, they

would threaten “The Underlord will get you if you don’t do as

you’re told!”. Hearing these threats echo down from above gave

the Underlord a hearty chuckle. From his throne, he was still

enforcing rules, and quashing fun.

And all was right with the world! … or well, delightfully evil.

At least, until Lord Fang seized Arcadia.

Suddenly, all the Underlord heard from above was ‘Lord Fang

will get you if you don’t eat your broccoli!’ and ‘Lord Fang will

get you if you stay up past bedtime!’ (Which might actually

be true, Lord Fang being a vampire and all). On Halloween,

sales of vampire costumes completely outstripped demon cos-

tumes. Soon, no one worried about demons. They feared only

Minotaurs and Orcs and Vampires.

And the Underlord couldn’t leave his throne to end these she-

nanigans. If he stood up, someone else could sit down and take

over. That was the rule.

He needn’t have worried. It took some time, but with Lord

Fang’s defeat, Inferno celebrated. Finally, the Underlord would

once again make children go to bed and eat their veggies!

But it didn’t go as expected.

The vampire’s siege remained fresh in everyone’s minds. No one

was paying attention to demons. Sales plummeted, stock prices

crashed, and rules violations began to rise.

So, the Underlord hired an image consultant and some mar-

keting types. Well, he actually kidnapped them and threatened

them with eternal damnation, but the results were the same.

They told him to shift the paradigm, leverage the synergy, and

disrupt the evil-doing industry at a fundamental level. This non-

sense bafed the Underlord as few things do, so they broke it

down for him: “Face-time.” If he personally visited the surface

and riled things up, he’d get all the press he needed.

The Underlord admitted he’d like to stand. It had been 6,666

years since he’d been banished, and his legs were starting to

cramp. Also, he’d heard whispers that the demons had a new

nickname for him (Rock Bottom), and he was determined to

stamp that out once and for all (and one can only really stamp

if one is standing).

And yet, the rules were inviolate. If he stood, the longest run-

ning game of musical chairs in the universe would come to an

end. Any demon lurking nearby would seize the opportunity to

sit and make some rules of their own.

He pondered and thought and pondered some more, until a

malicious grin spread over his face. Arcadia’s Cycle of Day and

Night had created endless trouble, but if that Cycle existed in

Inferno, demons could nally have a bedtime! And if the de-

mons were all asleep, he could, even if just for a moment, get

up from the throne.

The Underlord smiled at the irony. Arcadia had caused his fall,

but now, it could allow him to rise.

And all was right with—oh, who are we kidding? All was indis-

putably evil!

Now, the deeds are done. The ritual has been cast. The Angels

who secretly guarded Arcadia have been captured, and the city

dragged down into Inferno. Bedtime fast approaches for all the

demons and Arcadians, as soon as the Angels have been turned

by the ever so tempting powers of Damnation!

The rules shall triumph!

Fun shall perish!

And may Heaven help us all, for the Underlord shall reign

supreme!
