A TERRIBLE THING IS HAPPENING

reference books detailing myths and legends stolen from libraries...
wikipedia pages wiped clean from the face of the internet...
ancient stained glass windows smashed and destroyed...
historical research centers burnt to the ground...

Someone out there is trying very, very hard to erase all of the possible sources of power and belief of the ancient gods and goddesses. And it hurts. Whilst the powers of the minders are unharmed by the attacks, the gods and goddesses will be certainly feeling the toll: it's now painfully clear that even the simplest of miracles are now becoming almost impossible to perform.

deities, you had better have gifted your minders with some decent blessings! Because now you're going to rely on them more than ever. Someone is out to get you.

this man and his followers have a fight ahead of them for that to happen.
if they happen to be in rome, just be yourself.

[There is an implied 'give them hell' here that Uriel won't say, because he's an angel and no angel would. Still, there's something that seems to encourage Astaroth, for once.

Don't expect it to happen again.]

[Oh, he won't. But he isn't going to forget about it, either.]

desperate times.

there, there.
there's only shame in it if you allow it to rear its ugly head.

not likely to happen
you'll never let me forget it regardless

you know me too, too well.

centuries later, there is still always that.

[What is it about you and Ramiel that still can spark a little long-since-tarnished brotherly affection? Apparently, the angel who offers the open palm now still has ties from the days before the demonic rule over hell, when he and his brothers were its guardians together.

Apparently, apocalyptic happenings make Uriel a bit sentimental.]

perhaps the one thing that truly does surprise me.
I wouldn't think it speaks well for your station to show even such simple mercies to the infernally crowned.

[apreparescuer]

TO: [ uriel ]

it doesn't.
neither does it help yours for you to be offering to help put the other fallen back in tartarus.
forgivable, though, don't you think?

[colubri]

to: [ uriel ]

well it's not like I'm offering to help anyone, explicitly.
really I feel it's more getting a slice of personal revenge.

TO: [ astaroth ]

your revenge works out in my favour for once.
definitely a one time deal.
