Chapter 29 - It ends... It begins.
Nephylim commented on Nephylim's story chapter in Chapter 29 - It ends... It begins.
No, I should be thanking you. Without readers, writing is empty. I was so scared to share my stories but you, and the rest of my readers, have made a home for them and for me and I am more grateful than you know. I'm glad you enoyed the journey of my special little family and I hope you enjoy the other stories, although I don't think there are any others that are quite like this one -
Thank you SO much. I truly appreciate your comments. Seeing your journey makes me remember why I write.

Semjaza, leader of the fallen revealed to Ishtar a human priestess with whom he had fallen in love, a secret. It was a secret that could ascend humans into angels. It had already been done once with a guy called Enoch, who became the angel Metatron. The Sanhedrin Malakim (Counsel of Angels) sanctioned Enoch;s ascention, but they were pissed with Semjaza and Ishtar because they had encouraged other angels to have relations with humans, some of whom had children - the nephalim. The last straw came when Semjaza tried to ascend Ishtar. Both they, and the 200 angels under Semjaza's command were cursed. The 200 fallen were sent out of time and Ishar went mad. Not a happy ending to not just one love story, but many because the nephalim, who were described as giants among men, were ruthlessly hunted. The story comes mainly from Sumarian lore. One of Ishtar's sumbols was a seven pointed star

Oh me too! Bridge just lights up the world. He hangs the moon and the stars. He doesn't do magic, he is magic

Yeah, I worried quie a lot about whether it's too detailed and convoluted. It's tricky when you know the story but you're not entirely sure how to tell it in a way that readers will actually figure out what you're on about. It's a balance between giving too much information and totally confusing people, or not giing enough information and leaving them wandering in the big. "wtf"

Chapter 19 - Past Meets Present. True Nature Revealed

Take a breath. It's not over yet -
WE can only judge from a human perspective because we are human. There are very few humans in this story.

They are a strange little family, but it works.

I'm so glad you fell. It's all about the fallen after all -
Chapter 23 - Sam and Alex

By this point, I think he has other things on his mind and even he realizes he can't take out all the monsters. It would be very difficult to find the precise people to punish in this scenario -
Aha, I knew you'd crack in the end There is a lot going on in this story and I just hope I tell it well enough to keep it straight to the end.

Apart from Star and Bridge. I think the twins are my favourite. They are so strong and yet vulnerable.
-
I found it both satisfying and not. Another string to the hypocracy bow, but I think Radu is beginning to realize that he is the same as the monster he destroyed.

Spot on. more than you know

Chapter 11 - Worry and Trust
Nephylim commented on Nephylim's story chapter in Chapter 11 - Worry and Trust
I think this is a real turning point. IT's been a long time since he's truly cared for anyone other than Astaria and it's changing him in all kinds of ways without him even realizing it. I think his hunting at this point is an attempt to hold on to things he feels are slipping out of his control
