Celestial: Eternal Reckoning

Prologue

"Dumaan man ang milenyong pighati, patuloy parin akong iibig sa'yo aking sinta."

"No matter how far I am, no matter who is it beside you on the aisle, no matter how'd you die... no matter what timeline it is; I'll always be here for you my love."

"Sei tu colui che mi tiene sano, sperando che ci sia una possibilità su un milione che Dio ci permetta e sollevi la maledizione che ha posto su di me."

"Hantod sa muabot ang panahon nga p'wede na, unta p'wede pa. Labis taka nga gihigugma akong palangga."

Azriel Hor, once a guardian of mortals alongside God, often marveled at the divine creation of humanity, fashioned in His image. Intrigued by their existence, he would occasionally descend to Earth to engage with them. He shared in their laughter and witnessed their relentless efforts to survive amid various struggles, including devastating wars.

​However, his observations revealed a darker side to humanity.​ Many became consumed by an insatiable desire for gold, wealth, and power. Greed took root, pride flourished, and the chains of lust enslaved their hearts. Jealousy became commonplace, as individuals flaunted their riches to outshine one another. In this fervor for status, some neglected their responsibilities, leading to indolence and a deep-seated animosity towards one another.

Amidst this dark environment, a radiant flower bloomed; Lylle, a mortal queen. Her captivating beauty enchanted Azriel, drawing the heart of the guardian towards her in a way that even a celestial being could not resist.

​Azriel understood that to love a mortal was to commit an unforgivable sin, a grave act of rebellion against God.​ This forbidden affection placed him in a precarious position, torn between his duties as a guardian and the profound feelings he feel for Lylle.

He committed a sin...

He shared his love to the queen...

God knew...

Their love didn't last long, the two of them cursed.

He will lost his wings, he cannot come back to the heavens again.

While the punishment for an angel may be severe, for Azriel, witnessing the woman he loves endure the hardships of mortal life was heart-wrenching. Each struggle she faced and every manner of her death felt like a piece of him being torn apart.

​Helpless to intervene, he grappled with the agonizing truth; if he were to draw near to her, Lylle would not be reincarnated again.​ This knowledge trapped him in a dilemma, forcing him to choose between his own desires and the fate of the one he cherished.

But, that was then...

After a thousand years of suffering, the day has come, the curse lifted; possibility of them being together became possible.

But it's not just a common love story of a mortal and a celestial being, but a story of how love will conquer the hell through the heavens.
