[The episode begins with a depiction of the universe, where Heaven lies in the sky with its golden gates shining. The narrators, Charlie Morningstar and her sister Maddie Morningstar, tells a story of how entities called Angels made the universe.]

Charlie Morningstar: Once upon a time, there was a glowing city protected by golden gates known as Heaven and ruled by beings of Pure light, Angels that worshiped good and shielded all from evil.

[As the narration goes on, the images show the silhouette of her father, Lucifer Morningstar, making fireworks, which draws the ire wrath of the angels for his behavior.]

Maddie Morningstar: Lucifer was one of these angels. He was a dreamer with fantastical ideas for All of creation. However, they see him as a troublemaker by the elders of Heaven. For they felt his way of thinking was dangerous to the order of their world. So, he watched as the angels began expanding the universe in their ways. From the dust of Earth, they created Adam and Lilith, equals to the first of Mankind.

[The angels then created a planet called Earth, where they produced the first humans, Adam and Lilith.]

Charlie Morningstar: But, despite this, Adam demanded control, and Lilith refused to submit to his will. She fled the Garden. Drawn in by her fierce independence, Lucifer found her, and the two rebellious dreamers fell deeply in love.

[Lilith rejects Adam and flees, where she meets Lucifer and falls in love.]

Maddie Morningstar: Together, they wished to share the magic of free will with humanity, offering the Fruit of Knowledge to Adam's new bride, Eve, who gladly accepted.

[They came to Adam's new bride, Eve, to offer her an apple from a tree to bring free will to humanity.]

[But the Earth was shattered by darkness unleashed by them. The angels banished Lucifer and Lilith from Heaven and Earth and into the depths of the black and dark realm now called Hell.]

Charlie Morningstar: But this gift came with a curse. And with this single act of disobedience, evil finally found its way to Earth. With it, a new realm of darkness and sin. And the order Heaven worked to maintain was shattered. As punishment for their reckless act, Heaven cast Lucifer and his love into the dark pit he had created, never allowing him to see the good that came from humanity, only the cruel and the wicked. Ashamed, Lucifer lost his will to dream.

[While Lucifer stagnated, Lilith thrived and brought Hell to new heights, leading the angels to start the yearly Extermination as population control for the overpopulated demons and sinners.]

Maddie Morningstar: But Lilith thrived, empowering demonkind with her voice and songs. And as the numbers of Hell grew, so did its power. Threatened by this, Heaven made a truly heartless decision. Every year, they would send down an army, an Extermination, to ensure Hell and its sinners could never rise against them. But Lilith's hope remained. And her dream passed down to their precious daughters, the Princesses of Hell.

[As Charlie and Maddie finish narrating, they close a book titled "The Story of Hell" and look out to Pentagram City.]

Charlie: Don't worry, Mom. I'll make you proud.

[Charlie and Maddie soberly look out the window to Pentagram City burning to the ground, just as Vaggie comes into the room.]

Vaggie: Charlie and Maddie?

[The key Charlie and Maddie are holding transforms into KeeKee who scampers away, and Charlie and Maddie turn to Vaggie in surprise.]

Maddie: Aah! Oh, shit. Did you hear all that?

Vaggie: Uh, yeah. I was right there.

[Vaggie points her thumb to the doorway.]

Charlie: Sorry. I get pre-tty worked up after an extermination happens. The story helps...
