Doch tapferen Menschen gelang es stets, gegen die Mächte der Finsternis zu obsiegen. Im Jahre 1876 versucht Lazarus, der Sohn des Teufels, ein weiteres Mal die Macht über die Welt an sich zu reißen.

Reverend Malligan teilte mir dort mit, dass es meine Bestimmung war, gegen diesen mächtigen Feind alles Guten anzutreten, denn nur ich sollte ihn der Überlieferung nach an der Ergreifung der Weltherrschaft hindern können.
