A space without boundaries. The sound of wings being spread, feathers on cloth, cloth shifting on skin. Light whispers, old and young, everlasting. Neverending.
She stands, looking down at something only she can see, wings wrapped tightly around herself. She is light, she is the absence of darkness, and yet she is more. She has always been more, and will always be.
He knows what she is contemplating, long before he asks her.
Up here, space does not exist.
Up here, there is only the sound of wings being spread, feathers on cloth, cloth shifting on skin.
And he has asked or he will ask her, or maybe he is asking her at this very moment.
They are one thing made up by multitudes of individuals, older than humanity and colder than the universe's core.
"Whatever troubles you so, sister?"
She turns, slightly, and looks at him, or she would- if her body wasn't made of bright light.
"That we are damned to impartiality; that they suffer whilst we watch, though we could prevent the catastrophe with ease; that I am bound here, whilst damnation is upon them. That is what troubles me, Uriel."
"It it our Father's will; and his will shall rule us for all of eternity. Your wishes are no greater in importance than his; for he has created us and we are bound to him in dutiful service. We are the hand that gives and takes, an extension of his godly whims."
"I look down and I see the pain and suffering that will ensue if we don't intervene. I look down to see his creation being destroyed at the hands of Lucifer's offspring- he who betrayed us."
His wings shift around him as he moves closer, urgency lending strength to his posture.
"Do not intervene. Everything has been foreseen- you shall not meddle with fate."
Her sigh echoed through the light-filled expanse, causing the voices to rejoice.
"I shall not, brother."
He sighed and left her where she stood, deeming her defeated.
And so he didn't see the glimmer in her light, promising trouble.
