The extermination was warded off with the combined efforts of Charlie’s hotel, Lucifer, and various other factions like stray denizens and Rosie’s army of cannibals.
The damage was extreme and loses were large, having lost many cannibals from Rosie’s town as well as Sir Pentious, who sacrificed his life against Adam to buy time for Lucifer to arrive.

Smiling and talking to the demons all around whom he’d completely given up on last she heard…everything really had changed…all without her.
Before she could make a move however, his head turned and their eyes met…she didn’t know what to do…
