Back on heaven Matius and Lemionas walk through a new part of heaven, walking past a graveyard with many gravestones. Taking note of this Matius turns to Lemionas confused. “I heard that heaven had a civil war if I’m right?”, Matius questions remembering his history lessons. “Yes”, Lemionas replies, “how did you know? about the civil war here?”. “I leant it during my time in the academy”, Matius replies, “but I don’t know all the details”. Lemionas smiles to himself walking through a bridge, water falling to their right from a waterfall. “As you are probably aware, there was three Greater Angels, Ramirez, Olaris, and Garibel. These three bought about the birth of our civilisation and the many angels that were born. In their time however there was also war, with Hell your birthplace. Heaven and Hell would fight over what you know as the wildlands, all for the sake of having land. Many times however angels would fall under Hell’s strength. The Greater Angels watched day after day, bodies of their dead would return to heaven. Hell was just far too strong”.

“So what happened?”, Matius questions as they stop on the bridge, looking at the view of the village the sun shinning brightly. Lemionas raises his head as he readies himself, “Realising heaven needed to change, Garibel one of the Greater Angels came up with a solution. For them to match Hell’s strength they themselves had to discard their angelic purity and gain the power that was bestowed on hell's chosen. With the body of a dead demon, Gabriel using his power merged his own body with the body of a dead demon bringing about the start of the Archangels. His new name would be known as... ‘Gabriel the Greater Archangel’”. When Gabriel reborn returned to his Greater Angel brethren they were horrified, at this new abomination of heaven. Gabriel was cast out of heaven, impure by hell’s touch. Angered Gabriel sought to bring others to his cause, deeming heaven weak and naive of greater power. Other angels soon heard about Gabriel, the angel who possessed the power of hell's army. Soon Gabriel’s legion of followers grew, until one day they confronted their brothers of heaven. Angered by the rejection of heaven, Gabriel and his Archangels began the civil war which engulfed all of heaven”.

“What happened to the Greater Angels?”, Matius questions as they leave the bridge walking into the village, “Do they still exist?” . “Perhaps…”, Lemionas replies unsurely, “after the civil war Olaris and Ramires both left heaven, putting their trust into the angelic council that they themselves created. As for Gabriel and his brethren? Well… Gabriel died at the hands of his two Greater Angel bothers not before inflicting mental scars on heaven, scars which still exist to this day. Some people believe that Gabriel’s legion lives on, though the heretic angels that both heaven and hell do encounter. They might not be tainted, but they hold Gabriel’s beliefs. As much as we have searched we have never found where Gabriel's legion came from, for all we know it could have disappeared from passing time".
