Up beyond the so-called realm of the Gods was the Kingdom of the Angels. The Angels lived in a realm that in a sense that was similar to Mt. Olympus in Greek mythology was beautiful, and the angels were of many different forms; some looked like human beings but others appeared as large wheels covered in eyes and angel wings much like in the Bible. The situation in the Kingdom of Heaven was strange, God had apparently been there so long ago that there were only legends or here-say off his existence. Some of the angels that you have probably heard of from the Bible such as the Archangel Michael and the angel Gabriel were insistent that God was in fact real and the lord of the universe. Michael was one of God's champions and a saint in the Catholic Church and Gabriel was an angel that was prominent in both the Israelite and Christian Bible and also said to have visited the Virgin Mary when she gave birth to Jesus Christ in Israel and Gabriel was also said to have revealed the Quran to the Prophet Muhammad in Arabia. Of course the ruler of the Angels who had been the supreme authority for the last 600,000 years named Belthasar was all and all an Atheist and disbelieved in God for in his lifetime God had never shown himself and his authority in the heavenly realm. The Angels' job largely revolved around them bringing in demons to be exterminated and keeping tabs on the world directly below them in a manner of speaking. The demons were terrible beasts, the pawns of the fallen angel Lucifer. These were terrible disgusting beasts who had no semblance of beauty. Giant snakes with faces for eyes, and terrifying beasts with mouths all over their bodies and disgusting appendages. Truly the rot of creation. In the hall of power sat Belthasar who 600,000 years ago seized rule over Heaven in a bloodless coup. He sat on his throne and was speaking to one of his angel comrades. "Lord Belthasar, critical news from the world below. One of the demons has become an apostate. His name is Talus and is quite powerful, he is capable of evil blowing up star systems with ease. He has joined a group of beings who are being aided by the powerful wizard Ungar, a descendant of the star people so it may be prudent to correspond with their tribe. The Demons are out to kill Talus. Should we aid him in any way?" After a short pause Belthasar said; "Of course, we will send one of our Percius to defend him and his new allies. By the way, I have heard that we have captured Mammon. Is this true?' said Belthasar. The other demon bowed his head, this is true he said and he began to relay how Mammon unlike many other demons was not terrifying looking at all, looking like much like an angel but less like a mortal than others appear with a strange appearence almost appearing like a gargoyle but far from being anything remotely grotesque.
He asked Belthasar if St. Michael, Gabriel, Metatron or another should be alerted so they could tell their father God about the developments where as Belthasar could only laugh. "Do you think if our father the lord God truly exists that he is not aware of the situation, if he indeed lives and he indeed is all-seeing and all-knowing even within just the bounds of this world than it is mere folly to ask if he should be alerted as he would already know. Let alone the dealings of those who follow the self-proclaimed god of demons, Lucifer..., still... bring Mammon to me I have some questions I would like to ask him," said Belthasar. "Yes, my lord," said the angel. The angel left the room and after what feel like only several minutes appeared with two other angels holding chains and the gargoyle like creature bound up by the shackles and chains they held. "So it is the great demon king Belthasar, one of the lords of pride, tell me what is the extant of your fear towards this demon apostate, Talus?" said the Archangel Belthasar. Mammon stood there silently for some time before he responded, Mammon began to say; "I will tell you all I know about Talus because anything you can do to him won't be enough. He is a shape-shifter he can change his form to mimmic any individual or thing he has seen before and as he can read minds this expands his ability further for he can transform into things others have seen but they have not told him of. This is one way he extracts fear from his opponents by transforming into something they secretly fear or someone they hate.
He can also clone himself into as many 720,000 separate forms of different beings, the same different being, or just his being. Its notable that each copy contains his power so he does not weaken when he splits apart. He also has the ability to regenerate any part of his body immediately and therefore it is extremely hard to hurt him as it takes virtually no energy to recreate missing parts of his body. He was created from nothing. There was a blackness in the ether of space, dark energy began to simply gather around itself and then he appeared in his current form that was 5,000 years ago and he will live to be 10,000 years old, he therefore has no parents or father. He has no genitals and is neither male, female or anything else and cannot be overtaken at all by the temptation of lust as he is completely asexual. But he can be tempted into battle which is his only weakness, as he loves to fight and the thrill of battle.
He has been known as the 'god of nihilism,' as he believes nothing in this world matters but simple fleeting pleasure and as the only thing that matters to him is battle he simply constantly seeks stronger and stronger opponents and purposely puts his own life at risk as he does not fear his own death at all, and he fears losing nothing for that matter, which makes him extremely difficult to beat as there is nothing to hold against him. He has no desire for world conquest or to spread good or evil, he is empty and therefore extremely hard to control. That is why I always knew this day would come. He only served the demon clan because he used it to find strong opponents which is why killing weak mortals was something he almost always avoided not out of compassion but because it was too easy. He is a demon by birth and he knows full-well he is a demon but he could care less. He was only using us to find stronger opponents to battle, as soon as he no longer needed us he forever discarded the demon clan,' said Mammon. Belthasar couldn't help but laugh; 'Boy how offended you are that this creature had no loyalty to you, when you betrayed the angels long ago.
Hundreds of billions of years ago or some time ago you betrayed your fellow angels and I get quite a chuckle from your lament over this demon apostate,' said Belthasar. Mammon began to laugh at first only a little but the laughing got louder and louder. 'What's so funny?' said Belthasar. 'There is a reason I told you the whole truth about Talus, it's because you will not be with the living much longer,' said Mammon. 'What was that?!' said Belthasar. After he uttered those words there was a loud crash and an angel came running into the throne-room. "Lord Belthasar, the Demons and the Legions of Hell are attacking our realm. They have broken into the city and the angels are currently being slaughtered, what should we do my lord?!' said the angel. Belthasar looked out on the balcony and saw terrifying hideous creatures slaughtered by the angels he knew something needed to be done and quickly. The angels were doing well to halt the demons but the fact that the demons were even able to get as far as they did was simply astonishing. The demons were being pushed back and they were routed but they had gotten further than any other time the Demons had invaded heaven.
