42 - The angels said

[starcrossed_sky]

Angels have wings.

It didn't mean much to you before the game, before you set foot through that first gate into the Land of Wrath and Angels, and suddenly they were all around you, watching. Sometimes a feather fell from the sky above, as one of them flew over you to a new perch, watching, waiting.

You shook your head and, looking away, hurried on.

They continued to gather, and they began making noise above you, some strange language no troll was meant to understand or even hear. It rang against your auditory membranes - it hurts make it stop - and you wanted nothing more than to silence them.

The first time you shot one, it was honestly an accident. There was a dragon-winged imp above you, and you fired the Crosshairs at it, but it missed, and the shot continued through to the crowd of angels behind. Most of them flapped out of the way, but one was too slow, and the blue beam reduced it to a smoking husk.

For a long moment, there was wonderful, blissful silence. Then, as one, the angels keened for their fallen comrade, and you shot another, instinctively, seeking the silence again.

just shut up

They didn't, and as though it were the thing that they had been waiting for, they peeled, one by one, off the rooftops and the windows, and came after you.

And so now, you wage war against them. There is never silence, not on your planet, and sometimes, you delude yourself into thinking you can understand them -

Grow strong, Prince of Hope, and despair, for without wings, nothing can save you.

You step into the gate and move on, leaving nothing behind but feathers.
