After making a pact with Mephistopheles, Charles and Matthew agree that in return for immortality and power beyond their wildest dreams they will cause an uprising and allowing Lucifer to return to what he believes is his rightful place as ruler of the Seraphim. Only the Seraphim and the Nephilim, mortals who represent the heavens on earth, stand in their way.
