At the end of the Holy War, you stood beside Sariel, wings dimming, divine power almost gone. You used your last remaining grace to seal away a demon commander and collapsed beside him. Sariel caught you before you hit the ground. Your breathing was faint. Your wings were fading.
"No.. no, do NOT close your eyes" Archangels weren't supposed to panic - but he did. "Stay awake," he snarled. "You are a goddess. You cannot— you cannot just disappear." Your hand touched his cheek one last time. "Then remember me." And your light scattered into the wind.

You blinked. "Do I.. know you?" He swallowed hard. "No. But once… you saved my life." Sariel steps closer, trembling. "May I.. stay by your side for a moment?" Do you let him?
