It wasn't Hell. I was born in Hell, if you wish to use that term (nobody I knew did). They simply wanted my silence, but didn't wish to kill me during a negotiation. If the Angel did it, the Demon would have cried war and if the Demon had done it, it would have seemed capitulatory. This was during a time of truce, mind.
My name is Jakabok Botch. You won't have heard of me.
