http://www.pantheon.org/articles/h/holler.html
In Norse myth, Holler is the god of death and destruction and the one who brings diseases and disasters. He drags people to his dungeon where he tortures them to death.

So if Hel is allied with Holler and turning the unaffiliated guy gives Holler a vote then technically...

That's IF he is in OOTS's Northern Pantheon.

I figured that was her plan.
Now, what's about to transpire should be badass.

So that's what the prophecy was about, I'm willing to bet that Belkar comes back right when Durkula is about to win and save Roy's ass, cause Belkar is technically a bodyguard.

Durkula's a high-level vampire cleric with loads of spells, presumably prepared for combat. No way Roy can take him on his own. Belkar is basically useless because of vampire damage reduction. If the other priests decide to help Roy out, he's got a chance, but realistically we need another high-level spellcaster who isn't bound by the rules of the godsmoot to intervene.

Unless Rich has something else planned and I'm talking out of my arse, which is also a possibility.

Well, the other clerics / bodyguards could still technically attack Durkula... they would just be put to death.

And the Vampire + his fresh thralls may not be the only problem... as there also may end up a mage on his side.

Oh snap!

Maybe belkar could bring in the calvary or something here? He got tossed out the window, it's certainly possible that someone on our hovering airship could have seen that and then gone to grab him.

Well, Roy also has that sword augmented with starstone or whatever it's name is, which sometimes glows, dealing extra damage to undead and he might have that spell-interrupting attack that he got from his dad in heaven.

Where's Vaarsuvius in all of this, again? I can't remember.

Just thinking if he might decide to go help Roy with stabbings and slicings.
I'm fairly confident that V WILL show up and try to help... only to get hijacked to hell as part of the deal.

I thought they'd already gone and done that? Or are they able to do it whenever?

Each of the three fiends (NEro, CEdrik, and LEe) provided a soul for the soul splice, and has the right to claim V's soul for the amount of time that soul was spliced to V - two for 25 minutes and thirty seconds, one for 3 minutes and six seconds. One of the former has cashed in the claim, but there is still one long and one short stay in Hell for V, assuming V is not eaten by the Snarl.

But they're interested in the continued existence of the world, no?

We don't actually know what they want yet.  All we know is that the only time they cashed in thus far, it was to prevent Vaarsuvius from warning Roy to leave the Gate intact.  They wanted at least Girard's Gate destroyed, though it's not clear whether that was because of Xykon's imminent arrival (as Sabine and the Linear Guild had already departed, and their ability to handle an epic-level lich and high-level cleric would have been questionable) or, as I think more likely, because part of their ambitions are predicated on the destruction of all of the gates. 

EDIT:
Huh.  I just glanced back at that arc for a bit.  Haley might have accidentally had the right idea.
