Basically, this mystical...magical seal on hell has pulled us all here to fight this worlds apocalypse. Which yeah, a little insulting, some of us already fought in wars, but as it is we're here, trapped and can't get home unless it lets us out. Which it does, it seems to pick and mix whatever it thinks it needs, I don't know how it works.
But you make do I guess, You at least have family here. That's more than most of us get. Do you know about the complex?
