In the Beginning…

... God created the Heavens and gave it to the Angels. The Angels made a multitude of dwellings called dominions. Eventually, they made the greatest dominion of them all, the Silver City, and God was pleased. Then, God made the Earth and gave dominion over it to the humans.

The Angel Lucifer took issue with God over giving Earth to the humans, and he was exiled from the Silver City. Many that agreed with Lucifer left with him, and the Red City was born.

It has been years since the Red City was created and those that dwell their with Lucifer have been declared to be fallen away from God’s grace. The Fallen have been planning, now. Lucifer and those that believe God is wrong scheme to take the Silver City, the Throne of God, and to stop God’s plans.

War is on the horizon. Everyone can feel it. Before the battle, though, small skirmishes have been breaking out across the dominions of Heaven The Fallen Angels look for allies and tools to help in a planned attack on the Silver City. The Faithful Angels look to stop the Fallen roaming the Heavenly Realms. These are the heralds of war.
