Although, with the hints of Mara/The Three being childhood friends, and Urd's parentage... maybe the Great War isnt very hot, and hasnt been for a looooong time.
Hm.
Okay, teeny little teaser time. The following is from the very last scene of the story, end of the last chapter. (Disclaimers: Of course, as the story evolves, this may change. But at the moment, this has a solid, firm position. And I should note that I've cut out some context that would be serious spoiler material.) "Heaven and Hell are less... antagonistic in this world and itsparallels than you are perhaps used to. We're not enemies at each others' throats... Well, not usually. We're more like two competing teams in a cutthroat sporting event -- each out to win over the other at all costs while the contest lasts, but outside of that contest we can be civil and even friendly with each other. In this skein of universes, Heaven and Hell share the same goal -- the ultimate perfection of the human race. We simply disagree on our methods and the definition of 'perfection'."
