probably the first generation angels would be like first-gen immigrants,
who have a hard time adjusting to human culture and always referring to
old-world traditions of total obedience and smiting and their proud
culture of fratricide. the second-gen would grow up with only the
stories, which they think about with a strange mix of amusement,
disbelief and horror, because their parents are peculiar but kinda very
frightening sometimes, you know? third-gen would take the stories less
seriously, because didn’t grandpa and grandma go crazy towards the end,
screaming about fire and destruction and the apocalypse that was
supposed to happen years and years ago? a fourth-gen kid would scoff at
the stories and say, “nah, i don’t believe in angels.”
#SUCCESSIVE GENERATIONS OF NEPHILIM FORGETTING THEIR HERITAGE #the second generation trying to explain away their parents' wild-eyed fervent faith with a shaky laugh and a ''yeah my parents are religious #nutjobs; don't mine them--let's go up to my room.'' #the third generation who knows only the shuttered expressions and tense body language of their parents when grandma brings up the charge #of the heavenly armies in the battle for the eastern gate #and some of them a weirdly fascinated--it's always the later generations that try to figure out their roots #maybe secret societies start to form--grandchildren of nephilim all coming together to enact old rites #(or what they think are old rites) #and discuss the strangeness and divinity they are heirs to; the privilege of their bloodline and the righteousness of them #they probably call it something terribly pretentious like the cabal of lucifer and refer to one another as morningstars #but really this just mirrors the sects that developed even in the first generation--when the fallen warriors sought out #other warriors; guardians to guardians; scribes to scribes; and they all observed and told of different ways and so #the splintered leavings of heaven splinter further #they are human now #what else is there to do?
