Whoever came up with the design for Angels in Diablo was a genius. The armor, energy tendril wings and empty void where their head should be is an amazing look that is obviously angelic while remaining distinct from other depictions of angels.
Actual biblical descriptions of angels are way more acid trip than modern angelic depictions. Like a cherub has four faces: human, lion, ox and eagle. ALso they had cloven hooves,legs with no knees, four wings and were accompanied by mechanical wheels covered in eyes. Oh, and they were also on fire and shooting lightning everywhere. So...different
It's literally just a bunch of special effects and creature designs. Making an entire movie you have to sit through just to watch the cool SFX scenes has been a thing at least since the days of Harryhausen. Maybe this is an improvement. If the story is there just as an excuse for the visuals (or the demon mass slaughter as is the case with a Diablo game) why not just skip to those bits?
@@ObakeOnna Because this is a turning point in story. Story was having a build-up for 5 acts up to this moment. So it makes sense that this is what is animated. It may not seem like such if you just watch the cinematic with no context
The moment when Inarius dies... the divine exaltation evaporates, the light dims and you realize that you stand in the middle of hell and there is no hope for you. What a sh***y moment to be a crusader.
@GodessWorshipper these guys never went to reddit /r/atheism...cringe... at this moment I am EUPHORIC, not due to any phony God's blessing, but because I am enlightened by my own intelligence... *tips fedora*
Technically speaking, these are Knights Penitent, not Crusaders. Crusaders are an elite force of Paladins and serve the church of Zakarum, and are not in a great place in the current era of Diablo. The Knights Penitent are soldiers of the Cathedral of Light, who worship Inarius. After their crusade into Hell tho, they probably aren't doing well either. I just point this out because in Diablo's lore, Crusaders and Paladins are a very specific group, not just any warrior crusading against Hell is a Crusader.
What a strategist Lilith is. Leaving the battlefield because she knew Inarius' emotions would take over and that he would follow her wherever she went. Also like how you can see her just slightly open her palms right before Inarius stabbed her, cuz she knew this wouldn't be the end for her
I like the depiction of his feet hovering over the ground for a few moments, as if the land itself is struggling to deny his power, his holy energy, only to crack and be made to heel--pun not intended.
Inarius is Lucifer, the father of humans. This series is telling an occult truth known by secret societies. Whether or not we believe in these beings, they control the destinies of all
The way Inarius' hand was shaking after he stabbed Lilith kinda shows that he still loved her in the end amd that he shows some remorse, but in the end he was driven by his pride and desire to return to the Heavens where he felt he belonged
I love watching the humans actually do "well" against the demons for awhile. So many times in diablo humans just get smacked around like they are just annoying gnats. Nice seeing them actually kill shit
@@odin1185 As the one above me said. They realised Inarius lost and lost faith. I think it makes perfect sense that they'd panic and flail as they essentially bet everything on Inarius.
@@SavouSama no standing there letting yourself is retarded and made no sense. A warrior with no hope is more often more dangerous because they know they will die. That's why it was always a tactic to not fully surround your enemy as they will fight to the death leave a small way out so they flee desperate to survive. This cinematic was dog shit.
Inarius' death made me feel so uneasy. He's a huge asshole but I still felt a shred of sympathy for him, that was brutal. Voice actor delivered the emotions incredibly well.
He was tortured for an eternity in Hell, it broke him mentally, which is why he's so desperate to go home, like a lost child regretting that they'd run away from home.
I have no sympathy. The dude wants to buy his way into heaven by genociding humanity once he's done killing Lillith. Only part that made me uneasy was the part where, much like Imperius, we didn't get to slap the smug off his incorporeal face.

I love how badass archangels are and I hate how they are constantly being trashed in every diablo. But hey without that there will no need of a hero for saving everyone ass.
Yeah, I think my one complaint with how angels are usually treated is it seems like they're less powerful than their demonic counterparts. That said, Inarius's depiction here is absolutely incredible, and he only goes down because he's distracted by grief.
Well it's sad they always treated archangels as weaklings and got trashed by demons even at the movies or comics, novels, books, of course humans love demons and satan nowadays that's why, but archangels are much stronger thou, not the ones pathetic and dumb, but higher than darkness and demons.
Well, canonical history dictates that the ONLY reason Hell hadn't straight squashed the Heavens was that they were horribly divided in their goals and intrest, while the heavens were united against them.

Да,но с другой перспективы он просто хотел убить ее и покончить со всеми этим, даже тактически это правильно, хотя конечно твоя точка зрения так-же вероятна
I LOVE the more modernized rendition of the Macedonian tactic. The sarissa was a tremendously simple, but DEVASTATING weapon. The use of it here was incredibly well done. There was a reason Alexander the Great could never fight defensively- the sarissa was incapable of being used in a defensive manner since it required the army to always keep pushing forward to gore more enemies. You need to seek them out to skewer them. This was single-handedly the best moment of the entire story. Nothing even came close to this moment.
Holy shit I just realized that the 300 Spartans could have made this fighting style into a very devastating fighting style if they fought in a back to back style from the middle of hells gates and not moved it would be even more devastating if it was implemented from inside a tunnel through a mountain ( this would negate a arrow rain and catapults)
@@brennanlangless8912 Believe it or not, Spartans did not fight in this manner. Their combat is believe to be more group dynamic. The concept of forming lines like this was not really a thing in Greece at this point. The Macedonians would be the first to really hammer out formation like this so the Spartans wouldn't really have had too much of a difference in the end. The Macedonians didn't use cover to make their advance on the vastly superior Persian forces in both melee and archers. Their tactic was to push forward into the enemy, meat grinder them and keep pushing forward all the while arrows brought them down.
@@vladdracul2379 it’s just a thought on a alternate timeline for how they (the ancient Spartans) might/could have been trained/made use of a fighting style that would have been pretty effective for static fighting in a narrow passage with their brothers watching behind them
When i was playing the game and came across all the dead knights, I thought "wow it would have been really cool if they showed us the battle" and then later this cinematic played, and it did not disappoint.
Imagine if Inarius had abandonded his quest for false vengeance and accepted that Humanity was his true kin. He could've raised a force so powerful in the latent nephalems that he could've become a 3rd side in the eternal conflict.
Hes an idiot who hates the world he created. Tyrael sheds his wings to become mortal, while this mf kills his son, goes to hell because of some made up prophecy told him he could go to heaven.
Inarious was way weaken than I thought he’d be. The moment he had to kill demons with his hands, taking several seconds to do so, surprised me. I thought he was going to just incinerate the minions with his aura. He should’ve stayed back with his army. I suppose that’s why Lilith lured him away. She knew she could take him alone.
Inarius probably gained power by the faith of his adherents. By luring him away from his army, Lilith deprived Inarius from a big boon to his strength, and then on top of that she knew what strings to pull to unravel him mentally, and since she's a greater demon she already gets boosted from the fact that she's in her home turf of hell. Not sure at all if this is canon at all, but it's how I interpreted the scene
@@Fuerto203 id argue there was no boon because his adherents worshipped him, an angle estranged from real faith. I mean look at what they did to Vigo that poor guy didn't deserve that, they were almost as evil as Lilith in my opinion.
@@richardashendale922 Cause he was entirely motivated by trauma and delusions. Everyone except his sycophants, son included, kept making it clear he won’t get what he wants no matter how much he tries to murder Lilith. After all it was the High Heavens who handed him over to be tortured to begin with.
@@BlackfangDragon Idk. Even motivated by trauma it seems hard to believe he would think a spear haft to the stomach would be the same as a spear to the heart. His delusions had logic to them. He wasn't senseless.
@@richardashendale922 My interpretation is that by then, he simply injured her because he started doubting himself, that the High Heavens will never take him back, so he wanted to see if they will even give him a sign that this is the right thing, but when he injured her and nothing happened, he started finally breaking down.
This scene never stops being freaking amazing, even as it's so sad--Inarius was so full of his dumb self that he condemned so many people to death for what turned out to be nothing.
Thats the amazing thing for me. No matter how many people you sacrifice, it wont give you a place in heaven but rather in hell when you are so selfish to use others as pawns. Truly amazing script (the game itself is debatable atm)
I really love the attention to detail. The CG looks exactly as it should based off the ingame artstyle. But no matter how devout you are. Melting feet hurt.
@@Stellar_Life he's an archangel of a high heavens , not fit as a playeable character in a diablo game... My choice was base on a fact that the woman can be seen as a playeable character casting spells...
It wasnt an easy fight though, if you look closely you can see that the spear wall was already in the process of getting overwhelmed (many fell back to their swords). Plus the more powerful demons/creatures were hitting the frontlines and disrupting the wal.
@@CountCalcium That’s because the idiots only have one row of pikes instead of the veritable hedgehog used by the greek phalanxes so it’s very easy to bypass.
The way the knights actually use tactics and teamwork before their (Totally understandable) rout really impressed me- it would have been all too easy for Blizzard to make them mere cannon fodder.
1:00 that gigantic beam of light he sent was to Op micheal didn’t even use 0.0001 percent of his power for that. He just basically shined the light upon the coward army and started destroying them one by one.
Can't say Im not surprise at how Inarius and his legion of Pale Knight turn out... Heck even the Angiris Council at their prime and the Heavenly Host have a hard time maintaining a stable presence in Burning Hell throughout the Eternal Conflict. Inarius is just their advisor and the Pale Knights aren't even Nephalem, just human in heavy armors. So yeah, lets just charge straight up to the Heart of Hell and fight Legions of Demons right on their hometurf. Im sure that will turn out nicely.
To be honest they were smashing the demons up until the point when Inarius got fucked. At that time their "Hope" got diminished, and they started getting fucked
They said it multiple times, Hell's biggest enemy is themselves for not being uniting. Hell would have destroyed Heaven and Angels long ago if it wasnt for them being such backstabbers all the time
Because blizzard doesn't value its writing anymore. Inarius has always been CLEVER in canon. But apparently he has to be an idiot so that their big strong independent woman can win.
I dont know why but the scene in the game "Soul Reaver" where the protagonist gets his wings ripped off unsettled me(Its just brutal) and always stayed with me. To see it again in this scene further cements my feelings of it.
But Jim Raynor was a far more superior than Inarius. His love of Kerrigan and belief that she could be saved did get him and his crew in trouble sometimes...but that love and devotion saved an entire galaxy. And Raynor would never leave his army to die, Char was pretty much a Hell of zerg, and he stood on the front lines.
Awwww man, I'm just realizing now that Lilith snapped his sword in half with one blow! Inarius should have known right then and there he was in trouble. And then when momma asked about her son!!!???!!!!
@@Boywonder543 inarius suicide himself… You don’t know his story i guess, he is not a demon, he is an archangel. He lived with remorse all his life but he always loved lilith and nephelim. In this game he lose to madness and started a path for an inevitable death. He knew (like in war of sin) he would never kill lilith.
I have no idea how I ended up in this game, video whatever it is, but dude this video was absolutely brilliant!!! I'm really really stunned how this is not a actual movie..
For a dude who goes on and on about the prophecy, you would think Inarius remembered that the spear of light pierced the heart and not the abdomen. Either that or Inarius strikes me as the kind of guy who only reads the first 10 pages of a novel and then conveniently jumps to the back of it's cover and says : Good book.
Music: Language I don't understand. My brain: Trying to translate into words I understand. 0:11 "OOOOO, roasty. Toes-y. AHHHHHHH" Me: yes those toes did look like they were in pain as they walk on fire.
No, he was weak minded. She didn’t have to try hard. You don’t see it because you’re missing an important message in their story. Instead you’re focusing on mirroring him. You feel for him and make her out to be the mind deceiver. When in reality he was deceiving himself. The guilt can make your thoughts cloudy.
@@singularityphoenix0369 What? she got into his mind, he thought he killed her and let his guard down, turn his back on her and got wasted remember they had a thing going on once😏
I feel the daunting character in Inarius, he is like in process of becoming a dark angel. And then was killed so easily? He was able to dodge and counter a giant behemoth but not with dramatic Lilith? lmao
I think it was more that he was distracted with not earning the approval of the Heavens. Once he realized he wouldn't get it, lost his will. Plus Lillith went right for the critical parts of his wings.
Lilith is one of the most powerful being in hell. Some random behemoth doesn't even compare. Even humans took one down. Inarius was also largely crazy and completely emotionally compromised. Not exactly a stretch that he let his guard down when his ENTIRE purpose for living for thousands of years was shattered. Lilith was both his first and only love as well has his reason to exist.
I imagine after the legion is overrun and defeated, there's a lull in the action. The demons relax, believing in their victory. Suddenly, heavy metal begins to play in the distance. One of the legion henchmen rises, tearing off his armor to reveal doomguy. He proceeds to rip and tear until it's done.
Game story and development team were not brought in for movie production because Blizz wanted Hollywood to do it. The start of wokist writers destroying franchises.
@@SheepanoidTV I share your grief but delusion is not the answer! (Also the movie wasn't half bad. It's completely watchable. It just sucks that it'll never get a continuation.)
Before this, my fav sound from Diablo universe was the destruction of the World Stone in the end of LotD(original cutscene!!!!!!), now....now its the sound of church bell, resonating across the entire freaking battlefield. Fkn goosebumps, gaddam
I like how you can find Prava after the battle, and she is doing pretty good, for someone who got swarmed and buried underneath an army of Fallen Ones.
How did the Knights knew Inarius died? If I was there, I would’ve thought Inarius used his power to destroy the Tower from the inside which would even make me wanna fight more
The storming of hell sequence combined with the cutscene was just epic in the truest sense. The only other fantasy story that made me feel a similar emotion and sensation was LoTR.
All that I know about Inarius makes me think he might be the Aspect of Pride, which isn’t really a thing you’d associate 100% with Good that also fits his character
That's just it, though. He was filled with pride and had fallen out of Grace. He believed that doing "right" in name only was good enough to be allowed back into Grace. He didn't realize that his actions were not genuine for the sake of doing good, but actions made for the simple purpose for earning points to get enough to go back to the Heavens. He was rejected for his inauthenticity. Doing good by accident isn't worthy enough.

There was a reason Alexander the Great could never fight defensively- the sarissa was incapable of being used in a defensive manner since it required the army to always keep pushing forward to gore more enemies. You need to seek them out to skewer them. This was single-handedly the best moment of the entire story. Nothing even came close to this moment.
Holy shit I just realized that the 300 Spartans could have made this fighting style into a very devastating fighting style if they fought in a back to back style from the middle of hells gates and not moved it would be even more devastating if it was implemented from inside a tunnel through a mountain ( this would negate a arrow rain and catapults)
@@brennanlangless8912
Believe it or not, Spartans did not fight in this manner. Their combat is believe to be more group dynamic. The concept of forming lines like this was not really a thing in Greece at this point. The Macedonians would be the first to really hammer out formation like this so the Spartans wouldn't really have had too much of a difference in the end. The Macedonians didn't use cover to make their advance on the vastly superior Persian forces in both melee and archers. Their tactic was to push forward into the enemy, meat grinder them and keep pushing forward all the while arrows brought them down.
@@vladdracul2379 it’s just a thought on a alternate timeline for how they (the ancient Spartans) might/could have been trained/made use of a fighting style that would have been pretty effective for static fighting in a narrow passage with their brothers watching behind them
When i was playing the game and came across all the dead knights, I thought "wow it would have been really cool if they showed us the battle" and then later this cinematic played, and it did not disappoint.
Imagine if Inarius had abandonded his quest for false vengeance and accepted that Humanity was his true kin. He could've raised a force so powerful in the latent nephalems that he could've become a 3rd side in the eternal conflict.
Hes an idiot who hates the world he created. Tyrael sheds his wings to become mortal, while this mf kills his son, goes to hell because of some made up prophecy told him he could go to heaven.
Dude was too arrogant and declined as a result. It didn't help that being imprisoned for years weakened him severely.
Inarius literally had it all, and gave it up because of his fear and cowardice.
@@t850terminatorfear and cowardice aren't how id describe it lmao, not by a Longshot
That’s all lilith was trying to do and she caught shit the entire game for it.
Inarious was way weaken than I thought he’d be. The moment he had to kill demons with his hands, taking several seconds to do so, surprised me. I thought he was going to just incinerate the minions with his aura. He should’ve stayed back with his army.
I suppose that’s why Lilith lured him away. She knew she could take him alone.
Inarius probably gained power by the faith of his adherents. By luring him away from his army, Lilith deprived Inarius from a big boon to his strength, and then on top of that she knew what strings to pull to unravel him mentally, and since she's a greater demon she already gets boosted from the fact that she's in her home turf of hell.
Not sure at all if this is canon at all, but it's how I interpreted the scene
"Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall," Proverbs 16:18
@@Fuerto203it's not canon. Angels and demons don't get power from human's faith in Diablo universe. Humans are just fodder
@@Fuerto203 id argue there was no boon because his adherents worshipped him, an angle estranged from real faith. I mean look at what they did to Vigo that poor guy didn't deserve that, they were almost as evil as Lilith in my opinion.
Meanwhile us Diablo peasants annihilate endless hordes with ease
Inarius cried for help when his wings are torn while Tyrael torn his own wings in silence.
Good point. I swear I sometimes hear Tyrael's voice in D4 (probably the same voice actor)
And yet for some reason getting inarius' wings torn kills him? Also why is he a total idiot?
@@richardashendale922 Cause he was entirely motivated by trauma and delusions. Everyone except his sycophants, son included, kept making it clear he won’t get what he wants no matter how much he tries to murder Lilith. After all it was the High Heavens who handed him over to be tortured to begin with.
@@BlackfangDragon Idk. Even motivated by trauma it seems hard to believe he would think a spear haft to the stomach would be the same as a spear to the heart. His delusions had logic to them. He wasn't senseless.
@@richardashendale922 My interpretation is that by then, he simply injured her because he started doubting himself, that the High Heavens will never take him back, so he wanted to see if they will even give him a sign that this is the right thing, but when he injured her and nothing happened, he started finally breaking down.
Gosh that choir from the opening scene
It's so scary to listen to yet it makes you want to hear it on repeat
I wish I would have.
Because you and I want to do the same thing badly.
2:28 The cockroaches when I shine a flashlight under the sink
This scene never stops being freaking amazing, even as it's so sad--Inarius was so full of his dumb self that he condemned so many people to death for what turned out to be nothing.
Thats the amazing thing for me. No matter how many people you sacrifice, it wont give you a place in heaven but rather in hell when you are so selfish to use others as pawns. Truly amazing script (the game itself is debatable atm)
No matter what game blizzard makes, their cinematic team is the best in the world. These people are amazing

As someone who just recently got into the Diablo franchise starting with Diablo 2 I couldn’t believe how good the cutscenes looked almost like a movie
Everything about this was damn impressive. You could really feel how much lillith cared for him
I’ve never played these games but this looks amazing
Cinematics from Blizzard always look amazing. Games themselfs, not so much.
Get ready to be bored. The cinematic always drag you in. 30 minutes after clicking the mouse a 1000 times you'll regret wasting the money

@@Raven777777777777777 Great point.
Shields Wall on a straight path could have been an easy fight, but Inarius tried to be clever ?
Fanatics always get themselves killed the most stupid way.
@@SAXONandDANI and also the scariest thing... like give them a proper plan and you would have a fanatic that would not surrender
To be fair if she died like he planned he woulda just came back out and whooped ass some more, but she played dead and gave him a crisis of faith.
It wasnt an easy fight though, if you look closely you can see that the spear wall was already in the process of getting overwhelmed (many fell back to their swords). Plus the more powerful demons/creatures were hitting the frontlines and disrupting the wal.
@@CountCalcium That’s because the idiots only have one row of pikes instead of the veritable hedgehog used by the greek phalanxes so it’s very easy to bypass.
I was playing Diablo4 and had no idea this was going to happen. I lost it seeing how great it was the first time I saw it.
The way the knights actually use tactics and teamwork before their (Totally understandable) rout really impressed me- it would have been all too easy for Blizzard to make them mere cannon fodder.
1:00 that gigantic beam of light he sent was to Op micheal didn’t even use 0.0001 percent of his power for that. He just basically shined the light upon the coward army and started destroying them one by one.
Can't say Im not surprise at how Inarius and his legion of Pale Knight turn out... Heck even the Angiris Council at their prime and the Heavenly Host have a hard time maintaining a stable presence in Burning Hell throughout the Eternal Conflict.
Inarius is just their advisor and the Pale Knights aren't even Nephalem, just human in heavy armors. So yeah, lets just charge straight up to the Heart of Hell and fight Legions of Demons right on their hometurf.
Im sure that will turn out nicely.
To be honest they were smashing the demons up until the point when Inarius got fucked.
At that time their "Hope" got diminished, and they started getting fucked
Hell is scattered, no Primes, no Lessers, they fight rag-tag militia of Lilith.
They would win if inarius did the job right
They have powers just like our hero. But they lost their power after their faith shattered.
They said it multiple times, Hell's biggest enemy is themselves for not being uniting. Hell would have destroyed Heaven and Angels long ago if it wasnt for them being such backstabbers all the time
This is the single greatest piece of CGI cinematography I have ever seen.

Just finished this cinematic while playing the game, unbelievable. Will we ever see a Diablo movie? Dreams...
Whoever makes these short movies deserves an oscar
Thus, Inarius is the stupidest and most selfish angel?

Yep, he believed in a prophecy he was told would not happen and still he went for it.

@@rankyb8088 hrs dumb
Because blizzard doesn't value its writing anymore. Inarius has always been CLEVER in canon. But apparently he has to be an idiot so that their big strong independent woman can win.
This 10 minutes are better than the whole fast and furious franchise
I dont know why but the scene in the game "Soul Reaver" where the protagonist gets his wings ripped off unsettled me(Its just brutal) and always stayed with me.
To see it again in this scene further cements my feelings of it.
serious question - why can't movies be this good :( this is so grand and awe-inspiring I want movies to be this level of sublime!!!
I don't know for sure what's happening here, but that priestess is an icon of a fanatism for me now.

oh wow, Kerrigan is looking absolutely amazing as the Queen of Blades! Tho, the zerg have definitely taken on a different appearance....
@ilovecracklins6397 seems like blizzard is just re-telling starcraft through diablo but with a darker tone
But Jim Raynor was a far more superior than Inarius. His love of Kerrigan and belief that she could be saved did get him and his crew in trouble sometimes...but that love and devotion saved an entire galaxy. And Raynor would never leave his army to die, Char was pretty much a Hell of zerg, and he stood on the front lines.
I loved Inarius expressions through out the video.
He really sells the performance with how emotive he is.
Is there an OST for this game? The soundtrack here is pretty incredible.

Awwww man, I'm just realizing now that Lilith snapped his sword in half with one blow! Inarius should have known right then and there he was in trouble. And then when momma asked about her son!!!???!!!!
He could have killed her right then but due to bad story writing and inarius being distracted like a bitch he died
@@Boywonder543 so they had a son together and he killed the son?
@@joeyhitchcock5550Rathma
Or maybe he brought a bad quality sword.
@@Boywonder543 inarius suicide himself…
You don’t know his story i guess, he is not a demon, he is an archangel.
He lived with remorse all his life but he always loved lilith and nephelim.
In this game he lose to madness and started a path for an inevitable death.
He knew (like in war of sin) he would never kill lilith.
I have no idea how I ended up in this game, video whatever it is, but dude this video was absolutely brilliant!!!
I'm really really stunned how this is not a actual movie..
For a dude who goes on and on about the prophecy, you would think Inarius remembered that the spear of light pierced the heart and not the abdomen.
Either that or Inarius strikes me as the kind of guy who only reads the first 10 pages of a novel and then conveniently jumps to the back of it's cover and says : Good book.
The cinematic is fire! 🔥

No, he was weak minded. She didn’t have to try hard. You don’t see it because you’re missing an important message in their story. Instead you’re focusing on mirroring him. You feel for him and make her out to be the mind deceiver. When in reality he was deceiving himself. The guilt can make your thoughts cloudy.

"alright... nice little na-what the hell are you guys doing?"
Just wished they would make a movie like this …. its soo good
What movie is this?
One of these days they need an alternate ending where you can summon the Doom slayer and the end credits is just him going on a mad rampage.
I feel the daunting character in Inarius, he is like in process of becoming a dark angel. And then was killed so easily? He was able to dodge and counter a giant behemoth but not with dramatic Lilith? lmao
His 1st love tho ...
I think it was more that he was distracted with not earning the approval of the Heavens. Once he realized he wouldn't get it, lost his will. Plus Lillith went right for the critical parts of his wings.
This game is all mcguffins lol, why did he land to begin with😆?
Lilith knew where to strike him to hurt him the most, his hope. Once he lost all hope he basically just let himself be killed
Lilith is one of the most powerful being in hell. Some random behemoth doesn't even compare. Even humans took one down. Inarius was also largely crazy and completely emotionally compromised. Not exactly a stretch that he let his guard down when his ENTIRE purpose for living for thousands of years was shattered.
Lilith was both his first and only love as well has his reason to exist.
Her face was sooooo good detalied when she spoke with Inarius, like daaamn

One of the legion henchmen rises, tearing off his armor to reveal doomguy. He proceeds to rip and tear until it's done.

I love the change of pace from the battle inarius look powerful and mighty to week and vulnerable where lilith led him, its a masterpiece to watch
All that I know about Inarius makes me think he might be the Aspect of Pride, which isn’t really a thing you’d associate 100% with Good that also fits his character
That's just it, though. He was filled with pride and had fallen out of Grace. He believed that doing "right" in name only was good enough to be allowed back into Grace. He didn't realize that his actions were not genuine for the sake of doing good, but actions made for the simple purpose for earning points to get enough to go back to the Heavens. He was rejected for his inauthenticity. Doing good by accident isn't worthy enough.
