When a soul crosses to the afterlife, it journeys to one of two opposing realms; a divine source of harmony and wellbeing, a consuming source of evil and malevolence. A midworld exists for the souls whose judgement has yet to be decided. It is commonly reffered to as purgatory. For centuries 7 arc angels, protectors of the light, and 7 fallen, soldiers of the dark, have silently fought for balance of power over these unclaimed souls. Each side is restricted to sending only one warrior in every cycle. Upon arrival, they must assum a human form. At present, darkness rules, and has the strongest grip on the city that it has ever held.
Falling, is the first thing I feel, distant voices echo inside my head. Their orders are clear, yet all I can think about is the others.. Each one travelled this same path, what was their fate? What awaits me on the other side? They have gone to a place where the light is cursed, where darkness blinds the soul. This is a place where even angels fear to tread..
You threw me far from grace and I fall unto it. I hope to see you again.Falling is the last thing an angel feels. A distant voice still echos in my head, but for the first time it is my own.. Forgive me.
