Angels and Demons || @darkpastsbrightfuture
Before this world was created, there had been two forms of life: angels, heavenly messengers, bringers of light, and demons, tempters, personification of the evil.
Ever since they had been created, the war had lasted, simply because of the different nature of the two. Every now and then the heavens lost another angel, or the dark void - one of its dark angel. Neither side had ever been a real victor, though.
Inael was an angel, one of the younger ones, born from a thought of love. It was around the time when one of the fellow angels had shown her humans. Fascinated by the mortal beings, she snuck out every now and then to watch them. It was already night when she was about to fly back to the heavenly gates. and she heard something behind herself. Never before had she experienced something like that: something that filled her heart with fear she could not recognise.
“Who’s there?” she asked, looking around but unable to catch any shape.
