The Proxy War Between Heaven and Hell | Trench Crusade Lore

https://www.patreon.com/AdeptusRidiculoushttps://www.adeptusridiculous.com/https://twitter.com/AdRidiculoushttps://shop.orchideight.com/collections/adeptus-ridiculousIn the endless war of Trench Crusade, humanity suffers and dies while the forces of Heaven and Hell loom. But why don't powerful angels and true demons take to the field themselves? This episode explores the nature of the conflict as a divine proxy war, with humanity trapped in the middle.​We dive into the "Covenant of Hell," an ancient pact that prevents full-blooded demons from walking the earth, and the terrifying, reality-shattering reasons why Heaven can't just send in its angelic legions. Learn how Hell wages war indirectly with half-demon abominations and twisted constructs, and how humanity has been forced to create its own holy warriors—from cloned messiahs to giant Paladins—in a desperate attempt to survive. Join us as we discuss humanity's tragic role as the frontline soldiers in a cosmic cold war fought between two superpowers who refuse to get their own hands dirty.
