This outcome is not all that You wanted, of Creation's Future, and not all that You planned to obtain for Yourself.  But not every god can obtain mastery; Your dream of future dominance it is not Yours to call Your own in a way that commands respect from other gods.  Your fate, had We done nothing, was for Hell to be ruined, and its remains given over to foreign deities, and Yourself to be destroyed, and Your interests given no voice in Creation's Future.

And yet though We hated You, and You had not the right, for Creation's sake We took every measure along this way to show You respect and preserve what of Your pride and interests We could preserve, subject to the constraint that We had to win in the end.

If that voluntary gesture is not enough to assauge Your pride, then let Us all die in a fire together; for We, too, cannot be extorted by threatening Creation any more than You can.
