"That's not very nice of you HILDA."
"Listen up Seham, you can barely hold your own against your neighbours as it is. And those are not even particularly strong ones. The people that bassociate with Will and Nuriel are incredibly dangerous. Even if by some miracle you can defeat them, it will cost you many of your servants and resources - you will be almost bleed dry. No matter what kinda tactical genius you hope to become, you will notice that all strategy books tell you something important regarding war and being outnumbered. And the problem is, there are some people in Wills group I really like."
Lucifer takes out a picture of Meme, Lunette, and all the other children in that group.
"You see, Wills girlfriend is the big sister of this really cute one right here. His girlfriend will not stop fighting you until either you are she is dead. If she dies, cute Meme here will cry. If you make her cry, I will show you just how I, of all people, have not only risen to the ruler of hell, but also *stayed* ruler of hell since then. Now ask yourself, can you really wage war against the forces of IRIS AND against the forces of hell? Heck, these guys have so many friends and connections all around the worlds, the forces of other planets and even heaven might send us some support. I know, you feel frustrated over the decades and centuries that you have slowly lost more and more territory, but I am serious. Trust me here. This is a path you can not take and live to see the end of it. You know it to be true. Now stop this nonsense, come back up, we'll finish our tea, and find a solution together."
