Can you tell me what movie this is from? I don't remember the scene too well, but it was a scene where there was a battle between the armies of good and evil. The battle was evenly matched and there were a lot of men being killed. The leaders of those armies then freeze the battle and decide they will only use influence in order to win the souls of earth. I think this scene might have been an explanation from another character as to how the beginning occurred, though I'm really sure. |
