D&D Lore: Asmodeus - Hell's Siege of Malharak

Mined from the depths of the conflicting and obscure lore of the fourth edition lies a fascinating, yet mostly forgotten tale. An alternative origin and history of celestial angels, infernal devils and the formation of the nine hells. A mighty fortress city forged by the heavens, an impressive bulwark of holy light against a descending darkness lead by Asmodeus, the lord of lies in a century long siege. A story of righteous good, the purest form of evil and the last remnant of a disposed god known only as "he who was". All awash in the darkness of the Astral Sea and within the world axis cosmology. The story of Malharak, Heavens last bastion in Hell.
