Yep. From my time as a cub leader, my guess is that
about half of all cubs would hapily sell their souls
for..well, anything really, possibly just for the joy
of horrifying their parents. And 'free' doesn't mean
much when the Word of Freedom is held by a Demon
Princess.

He does - every 111 is God taking part. Besides, the
demons know that they'll have to fight God sooner or
later.

 Not for long. The DPs are getting at least one demon
for every 2 humans they break down, so if they get the
majority of souls, demons will quickly come to
outnumber (living) humans.

And Hell laughs and jeers. If Heaven has the muscle to
threaten Hell, the war is over. Remember, angelic
Rites don't work in Hell, so angels fighting there are
weaker than normal. Hometurf advantage, the difficulty
in transporting armies of angels to Hell, losing Songs
such as Trisagion, having the Malakite immunity to
Trauma rendered irrelevant: no, an invasion of Hell
isn't practical unless Heaven has overwhelming force.
And starting Armageddon on earth won't help; the
demons just scatter across the globe, tempting every
child they met.

Besides, the story doesn't end when the kids get the
Infernal Force. They've been well rewarded for
choosing evil - and get to bully the poor kids who
chose not to - so are likely to continue merrily down
a path of evil for the rest of their lives. 

Cheers, James.
