Misery in Paradise

[Queen Bright]

It had been only a few days since the fall of Plex, and still, for the angels, Heaven was not the same. Eli was now gone and the angels were left without a leader. Heaven had no ruler. And for everyone but the newly dead ones, it was a time of mourning, a time to pay respects to the former Embodiment of Creation, and decide on what to do now that the throne of the land that was once the North lay empty.

For Hikari, this affected her harder than that of the other angels. She had never shown such feelings, but the truth was, Hikari had developed somewhat of a crush on lord Eli. Though because her mother, Hikaru, had been partners with Koty  and Eli had become  in someways her unclie in-law; Hikari would never admit such sinful feelings. Now that Eli was gone, however, her emotion could clearly be seen. The young Angel Sage now wore a dress of pure black with her face scarlet red and rubbed raw from the tears that felt like they would never subside.

Eli was gone. Nothing would fill the emptiness that settled upon Heaven and in Hikari's heart.

A Seraphim was behind them, but did not say anything... In his head he prayed a thousand prayers for their lord, and was almost as upset as Hikari. He placed his hand on her shoulder, and tried to comfort her as well. "She will heal in her own time young Rezick...." he silently said. "We all will, its just a matter of pace, and coping with the loss. It may be best to give the young miss our support in this... Eli knows we all need it" He said as his wings folded back up. "I may be best to leave her to herself"

"We all will need time to heal. Plex has snuffed out a great deal of lives, and not just that of Eli. So this means I may have to do some intervention with both of your permission in order to ensure there is a dimensional plane come next year.  I don?t think Plex was all the dimensional guardians made, and from the looks of things it can only get worse from here on out.  So we will need to prepare accordingly.  If you don't mind I need access to a library on everything that has information on the dimensional guardians Hikari, as I have research to do and a plan to make."

Once he spoke those words, a comforting breeze would wrap around Hikari alone, and not the other seraph summoned by the power that Rezick had at his disposal currently. Now he turned his eyes, which were kind of a grayish green color towards the two of them. "Whatever the Dimensional Guardians made besides Plex, I hope it doesn't exist. For if it does, the dimensional plane will have problems that will likely be worse."

With that, he reached out to hug Hikari.

[Queen Bright]

Hikari was too far lost in thought and sadness to notice the Seraphim or Rezick, though she welcomed the hug despite the fact it did nothing to make her feel better. "W-w-what do we do without L-l-lord Eli?" She could barely talk as her words came out quick and stuttering. "O-o-our leaders D-d-d-d-dead!" Unable to take it any further, Hikari burst into tears again and brought her sleeves up to her eyes. Her her silver that floated just a few inches above her head tilted to one side, a symbol of her depression.

"ARF, ARF!" It was as if Fido was years younger and thrown back in his puppy years. The former Aralian War dog had large white wings and copper halo above his own head as he ran around heaven, digging in clouds, and barking at the air. This was one new inhabitant of Heaven that was not mourning.

The Seraphim patted her on the back "We'll get through this Hikari..." . He proceeded to lead the lower-ranking Rezick away from her... she needed to be alone.
