Author's Notes: thanks to my lovely beta fannishlissSummary: (End!verse set before the events of 5x04) Castiel gets early morning guard duty at Camp Chitaqua. He climbs high up the nearby mountain, and watches the valley below. Dawn is the only time he sometimes still catches a word

So incredibly sad but, as always, beautifully written. Having it all told from Castiel's POV, and to have him unknowingly complicit, was absolutely brilliant. Just like we see over and over on the show, the road to hell is paved with good intentions, but this time it was the road to hell on earth. The imagery was fabulous, and I especially loved the lone coloured feathers disintegrating to ash. Sam's eternal screaming gave me shivers; it's horrific to think Sam would be trapped inside his own mind as Lucifer used his hands to burn the world. I loved it.

Thanks so much for your lovely comment!
End!verse is something I love exploring- and digging more into what happened to the angels in that future was definitely worth doing. Glad you enjoyed the read.

Write what you know. ; )

I do love end!verse - it lends itself so well to devastation and sadness since both are inherent to it.

So glad you enjoyed the read!
