( Have you ever wondered how angels judge their own? Have you ever wondered how far they will go to ensure balance and order?

Well, citizens, you're about to find out. Sit back and enjoy the popcorn.

A counsel of winged and austere angels surrounds a woman chained. Her head has been forced into a prostrate position, but there's something...unapologetic...about her appearance. Perhaps her clenched fists give her away? She does look like she longs to rip the chains out of the ground. )

"Organic Angel Alexiel you have been found guilty of -"

( The words blur together. Alexiel wends her long fingers around the chains and grits her teeth. Must they drone? Going through the official motions drags this out even longer. She just wants to hear her punishment...

So that she can find a way around it. )

"...Uriel..."

( Ah. Him. Finally, Alexiel raises her head and gives him faint, cold smile. Yes, Uriel. Decide her fate. It's almost fitting that he's the one that does it.

The chains scrape against the floor as she shifts, her gaze focused and unwavering on Uriel. )

"Before that..."

( Her gaze shifts to the angel speaking, her brow slightly furrowed. )

"Tell us...

Who do you love most?"

( Tilting her chin, her frown becomes an almost knowing grin. )

"God, of course."

( It's then that her fellow angels descend upon her and drag her to her fate. Alexiel accepts all of it gracefully, showing not an ounce of fear.

However, before the feed comes to an end, Uriel's expression comes into clear focus.

He looks...

Sickened. )

[One day ne'll actually speak so people understand what ne's saying...or not.]

Did they not broadcast it through out Yetzirah for the shame of all?

( Oh...that. As if she wants to recall that shining moment of horror. )

Lessons such as that cannot be wasted.

If only the punishment had been deemed as educational. Or maybe they realized how would go over.

It was far less palatable. ( Not that she fought anyone. ) That might have been deemed upsetting.

And cause rioting among the masses. Or general discontent since most never rise very far unless pushed.

We can't have that. ( Her smirk says differently, however. )

Not at all.

Funny how the humans think politics and the games played are creations of hell.

Everyone began in heaven. Therefore it can be assumed everything began there as well.
