He did not tell Malic that the hand contained abilities that would destroy its human vessel. Realizing his sister could have returned, Lucion 'blessed' his failing lieutenant with a demon limb, allowing him to remove Lilith's guise. However, unaware of Lilith's presence, the raiding party was overwhelmed and utterly destroyed, sending Malic back fleeing to Lucion. Noticing Uldyssian due to his immense powers (after it was used to the detriment of several travelling missionaries) and quickly seeing his potential, Lucion dispatched his trusted lieutenant, the high-priest Malic to capture the farmer and his companions. Her unwitting champion was to be Uldyssian, a simple farmer from the lands near Seram. In the guise of the fugitive noblewoman Lylia, Lilith sought to awake the special powers of the humans (who were in fact the offspring of pairs of renegade angels and demons), harboring it for her own goals. Their subtle plans were disturbed by the sudden reappearance of Lilith, a renegade demoness who had her own goals and plans. Lucion conducted some sermons himself, in order to induct the weaker-minded followers of the Triune into the true, darker nature of the cult. Instead, Lucion and Inarius plotted against each other through subtle scheming, always anticipating their opponent's moves. The two sects continued to vie for control over the human race but without any open warfare, as it would draw unwanted attention. The Triune soon grew to become one of the dominating cults of Sanctuary, being second only to the Cathedral of Light, the counter-sect led by Inarius in his guise of the Veiled Prophet. However, the Primus was nothing but a facade, a disguise used by the demon Lucion. At the head of this cult stood the Primus, the pontifex maximus. Which at first seemed a harmless, peaceful cult turned out to be a dark, unholy sect devoted to the three Prime Evils. They devised a cult that would gradually lure its followers deeper into the darkness. Realizing that a full scale invasion would inevitably draw attention of the High Heavens (which would very likely result in a heavy struggle that would devastate Sanctuary, rendering it useless to either side), the Lords of the Burning Hells opted for a more subtle approach. Some time after the creation of Sanctuary by the renegade angel, Inarius, the world was discovered by the Burning Hells.
