During this acts, the Angel Hadrimon was forbidden to have a relationship with his subordinate Racial, being exiled to Hell, where she created a Mercenary troop with Lesser Demons. Somewhere after this, The Charred Council is created, and they created Panoptos, the 1st Watcher and recruit the Keeper of Oblivion as their executioner.
