That lady up in the sky? She apparently usurped Satan. Under the circumstances, I'd like to revise my position on the whole "Satan not existing" angle. And now she rules everything with an iron fist. Almost everyone in town is part of her gang, though judging by gramps here it's more of a Stockholm Syndrome than anything.

...No one is left who can remember how it happened. How the world fell under darkness. At least no one who would do anything. No one who would oppose the demons. No one who would challenge their power... Or so Soraya Montenegro believes.
...You see, the great demon you all saw in the sky, Soraya Montenegro... she used to be a regular human being, before her ascension to the Throne of Hell. She was a Mexican woman, born into a wealthy family, but a great jealousy and hatred filled her heart and twisted her actions. She strove to hurt everyone around her to get what she wanted in life, be it love, material possessions, respect... Eventually, her own contempt for her fellow man would lead to her demise, as she burnt herself alive trying to kill a pure, loving woman who only wished to help her, and the man she loved... But that was far from the end of it...

...I'm not sure if you gentlemen realize this, but you are in a buffet, in what is colloquially known as a "podunk town". I could get you each a beer. Will this suffice?

AND LET ME GUESS, SEGNOR!
This evil woman, she returned from the dead with powers beyond mortal ken, and laid waste to your home, conquering it like a demonic warlord and ruling it with an iron fist.
Your people are oppressed, broken! Powerless against the awesome might of this undead witch! Your hopes are dashed, and you cry out desperately for help! You cry out for a band with the power to shine a light to pierce the veil of darkness and overthrow this Queen of Evil!
You need a HERO. You're holding out for a hero 'till the morning light.

(Looks like he is about to say something else, but then Reigen pipes up.)
...Essentially, yes. We will be in need of several heroes, actually, though I will get to the details in a moment. A prophecy came, after Soraya had killed and overthrown Satan himself, taken Hell as her own sovereign domain and spread her dominion from the Inferno to the deep reaches of the cosmos... A group of vagabonds, misfits from planes beyond the one on which we lie, would be assembled together to end Soraya's malicious reign once and for all, and that only by their hands, with the blessing of the Bendita Lisiada, can this evil be quelled.
...Tell me, what did you see before you came here?
........
(Barely-concealed rage.)
...Very well. I will have your beer, paper umbrella and all, to you shortly, you awful, awful little boy... And the rest of your beverages as well.
(Grumpily limps off to get the drinks on her crutches.)

(Flinches heavily at the mere threat.) Ghh—! They—they are taken, stabbed, put into a ceremonial boat full of tarantulas, which is then lit on fire and set to float in el Lago del Diablo...! Don't, ah... ask how it is I know this...
(Looks up at Orion.) ...Ah... We... We could...?

(Orion) ...I'm guessing that Peter brought him up here.

(Peter) What has he told you so far?
