22,625 p.e.v.

After recruiting a third of the Host, Lucifer leads his rebellion. In his last private talk with God, he slays the Metatron, whose death scream is heard throughout Paradise. At the sound of the Metatron's wail, Uriel, formerly a seraph, becomes a malak, the first of many to turn, including David. 
After bitter fighting, Michael, the first angel, kicks his younger brother out of Heaven, cursing Lucifer that he, the light bringer, might be surrounded by eternal darkness. Upon the issuing of Michael's curse, the Lightbringer and his fellow rebels plummet to the farthest reaches of Creation and are trapped in Hell. 
Michael is made archangel of War and is made general of God's armies. Litheroy is created by Raphael. Belial is named demon prince of Fire and sets fire to Hell, to provide light and heat. 
The ban on celestial intervention is lifted, but God insists on subtlety.
