I'm still not sure where this is coming from.

Yes, the section on the Adversary is pretty black-and-white, precisely because Leviathan's goal will result in the destruction of <u>everyone</u> else. But there's all <u>sorts</u> of grey when it comes to the relationships between the various factions of angels, the demons, the pagan gods, the True Immortals, etc.

For one thing,
Lucifer was cast down because he wanted to wipe out humans just to make sure that they <u>wouldn't</u> summon Leviathan -- in essence, going to extreme measures to protect Creation.
