Opening – November 2020

Notes: Alia’s nightmare is based on one I had myself a few months after my own father moved out of my childhood home -the only detail that I changed being that I have a father and my realization that he didn’t live with us anymore. Like Alia, it was also my first time having a false awakening within a dream, something which up until then I had assumed was nothing more than a cheesy film trope, who knew? Likewise, it had been my intention to retrieve batteries so I could masturbate myself back to sleep. Though I’m no stranger to sleep apnea, this dream is what I consider to be the scariest nightmare I’ve ever had, and it’s wild to me that I can still recall it with such detail.

I could ramble on further; I put so much thought into the details of these opening pages so that I could set the tone just right, but I’ll just leave it at saying how happy I am with how the final product came out. I’ve prepped a pretty steep backlog because I tend to get rather meticulous about those kind of things, so it won’t be long until the next update.

Trivia: 1st Generation Angels are those who were Made and not Born. They are immortal and can only truly die from being Unmade –an act only Gabriel can uniquely perform. If a 1st Gen is mortally wounded while occupying a physical, non-celestial body, then he will respawn at peak health in his home realm. If he is wounded in his home realm then he will heal at the same rate as an average human until he returns to peak health.
