Raziel then shrugs and says; "Better then forget it and HOPE they do not conquer Sigil in near future. They do not stop their conquest, demons could have swayed from their course whit new temptation but when devisl want something, they single mindedly go after it and conquest they get what all devils want; Power, territory and wealth. But if conquest would be useless and undesirable, then they would stop.<br/><br/>But the Nine have taked accounts of losses of millions devils and new conquered worlds produce even now new devils or devilish beings and devil's servants add more file and pile soldiers. So chopping snake from tail point only makes it angrier, so you either chop the head in one swift strike or leave the snake alone or it bites fast back. I would think if all Nine were normal devils, and according some world's mythologies, some gods had been mortals once. So way defeat a god you must firstly become one I quess.<br/><br/>But the Nine have defeated already gods and also drained their powers, so they may be more powerfull each time when god dies and they take their divine essence. So how they do that I wonder?"
