some thoughts about the rebellion 2000 years ago
I was wondering why did the fallen angels even rebel or listened to Lucifaa (Cilius)* if he was a cruel scientist guy who would use them as tools? Some like Olivia passionately took arms on his name. We see him mostly from Sandalphonâs point of view (mutually antagonistic for their jealousy, and his disregard for Sandalphon as he wasnât on Luciferâs level on his eyes - and heâs not the one who made him) and after the rebellion.
But there are a few subtle cues that show the primarchs being close to him and how different he was from the Astrals (probably because, deep down, he wasnât truly one of them even if he didnât know that):
- They address him by his name (even in a casual way, as if he was just a fellow co-worker). While the other Astrals are like generic âthe astralsâ to them and show a distance between them and Fa in their chats (except for the scene with Sandalphon and Lyria but he wasnât part of his circle). If you didnât know the context of the gossip, youâll assume that Belial is a fratboy party guy and Fa is this nerd with straight As who bores Jock Uriel with technobabble.Â
- The angels were given the freedom to join the fallen angels by him and Belial (though Belial manipulated people to join: they had a choice and he didnât force them when we know the other Astrals were brutal - as an example with Jade and Fenrir backstory).
- Lucifaa was against the whole âLimitatorsâ deal, meaning he never expected his creations to blindly obey him (hell, heâs even pleased when Lucifer doesnât).
- He made all those angels help the skies to evolve, some passion he apparently shared with Lucifer once. Sandalphon and he had a reverse development if you think about it.
- When Belial takes a time to relay his message, he complains but he doesnât punish him, he just gives a scathing snarky commentary. Itâs like a work banter. This continues on their usual rapport, Belial is devoted but heâs insolent and obviously doesnât care about his grand finale just Fa himself, but he, aware of this, grumbles and sometimes retaliates but not in a serious manner. Lucifer calling him âfriendâ, I doubt he would use that lightly.Â
From the primals perspective, I think Lucifaa wasnât just their maker, but the only one in the Astral Research project that probably seemed to care about them in his own standoffish way. He probably did once, I think, before he started to have the end of the world in the plans. But that was later where he used them for Avatar. But at that point he was far too gone and completely destructive.
Itâs a shame we donât see Faaâs and Belialâs descend to their villainous roles. What we see of them is through Sandalphonâs, Luciferâs, Michaelâs and Sarielâs POV. We only vaguely know Faâs dreams probably played a part in his change. Being cranky and horny donât make them evil, that came later, and they became associated with Mysterious Hood Guy who was clearly evil on sight.
*Funny thing his name is actually Lucifer, while Lucifer has the alternative less used japanese spelling for Lucifer which sometimes can mean âLucifelâ instead.Â
