''"Flies are more than just biting vermin Jericho.  Their origin is in a place darker than this world.  The day we found your mother dead in the field it was swarming with flies, but noticeably not one was touching her.  The day we were forced to put her in the ground a second time they were not so choosy."''

Black Flies are the swarms that abide in the 9 Hells, and are rarely seen elsewhere unless summoned or sent for a purpose.  They are often used to torment the opponents of Devilish cults.  The Flies are also an incredible nuisance, poisoning the land, waking the dead, and increasing evils power in general.  Sightings of swarms is often a sign that bad things are afoot, such as an open Gate or a possession.  They understand Common and Infernal, but cannot speak either.
