That, states Illyria icily, is a failure of perspective.
Being returned to their former glorious state has rendered them incautious. Some distant part of themselves that still clings to the shell-memories is aware of this.
The Morningstar is not incorrect, however. Unless the Senior Partners boast an unanticipated change of heart, all of the Los Angeles will drown in Hell for all eternity, and the demons will swarm over and slaughter every human they see. Those unlucky enough to survive will be enslaved, if they have not already, to endure endless torment.
Illyria knows Angel wishes to save them. It is an utterly pointless attempt, driven by revolting human optimism. There is very little chance that such a plan to rescue so many weak, easily broken creatures would result in anything but failure.
