War of Purification [ ]
The War of Purification is the only known war that happened in the world of Sacrifice before the campaign with its own name. Persephone called for a holy crusade against at least Charnel. The war is remembered as cruel. Diallia was razed to the ground and its population exterminated after the temple guardians there betrayed Persephone. Due to the perceived senselessness of the war, many gremlins defected to Stratos. The war was concluded with the victory for the Faithful. As a result the use of the Demon Gate was banned for all the gods, however the Gate itself wasn't destroyed. To deny its use to Charnel, other gods had taken turns at protecting the Gate. This, in turn, led to a decrease in the number of demons in the world of Sacrifice, especially the Netherfiends.
