Fate's Awakening
~The God and Destiny Cross Thesis Reformation~
Awakening Cry.
Stagnant world of crystal that heralds the fall of Heaven and Hell.
Conflict without End.
This world of conflict cannot be repaired.
War never changes.
Living in harmony is a fantasy of idealistic minds.
So I will erase everything and start again.
You who have become "God."
If this is a future you deny, come forth and face me.
Defend the world that would erase you in a heartbeat.

"Arrival"

Ecclesia ~ Archangel's Office
Morning
You were not one of the scheduled arrivals, and thus, your entrance to the flying city was one that had been met with mixed reactions. A person claiming to be a God, but one that was not on record as a God, or even on record at all for that matter, was, in retrospect a suspicious enough circumstance that some amount of extra attention would have been pushed off onto you. It was an understandable matter, even you did not know entirely why you had come here, it had just seemed like something you should do, a driving impulse that resonated deep with you as a person, and so you had made your way here with the help of a particularly friendly angel.
And their response had been to immediately bring you to the Archangel; the military leader of this Celestia, the real ruler, not like the principal of the Academy.
Her name was Mariel Soraumi, according to her own introduction, and-
"So, what aspects of your past do you remember, Lord?"
-Out of all of the people you had ever met, she was the only one who gave off the 'authority,' of a Queen to this extent. While you were a God, and pretty confident in yourself, her presence was somehow unnerving... Not in the sense that she was inherently frightening, but like... The sort of fear that comes with facing one's parents after having done something wrong, but being unsure of exactly what that wrong thing was...
Messing with an Archangel was a good way to get beaten into a Coma, even for a God.
Gods had the brute force... But Archangels...
Were really, really good...
Everyone she had spoken to had seemed compelled to answer her, and not a single one had talked back, or had started a conversation without being spoken too first.
She didn't seem to be a bad person though...
"Your case is strange. By all means, as a God you are allowed to exist on this Celestia as a student, however, a God that doesn't appear on record simply should not exist," continuing with that same queen-like tone, the Archangel flicks through an almost comically large stack of papers with a tired, but still casual ease, "Are you perhaps some sort of Netherworld experiment? Did you awaken in an abandoned military base? Or in the human world? Anything of that nature?"
You had told the story quite a few times already, but it seems she wanted to hear it herself, directly from you.
Outside a nearby window, you could see the morning sun sinking below the sea of clouds, going to shine down on the human world... And a bit closer, you can see students of all types wandering around the gardens outside, intent, perhaps, on going to see the other "Gods," that would appear here today.
The ones that were actually on record as existing....
Somehow... You felt like paperwork was in your future...

Airship "Demonica" ~ En Route to Ecclesia
Morning
While your teacher had never been the best example of a Devil, being here, on an airship to Ecclesia, surrounded by Devils on all sides, on a ship that could very easily come under attack by a dragon before you reached the school, made it clear how different her aura really was in comparison to the others. While the other 'prodigy' students seemed to hold a certain hint of 'danger,' to them, your dark haired teacher seemed to more radiate 'mischief,' than anything else, and...
"Are you excited Ryu-kun? We're going to Ecclesia!"
A hand coming down to lightly grasp your head, the figure of Cerys Naberius turns your head towards her with a bright energetic smile that seriously didn't fit the dreary wasteland the two of you were leaving behind on this ship. She didn't seem to notice that people were staring, not just because a "God," was on the plane, but because there was something about you that invited this sort of attention...
How to say it...
You were very... Bully-esque... Had a bit of a confrontational air...
A particularly annoying devil with red hair had been staring at you since the two of you had gotten on, but, having had your head moved against your will, it seems he had won...
This time...
"We'll be getting a new roommate too! Although I don't know many angels, I got told about this one... Apparently it's a girl~ How do you feel about that, eh? Eh?"
A nudge of the elbow, a wink.
Yeah...
Mischievous...

Airship "Aurora" ~ En Route to Ecclesia
Morning
There were far too many people on this ship, and all of them were way too excited about the fact that "God," was on board with them. From the very first moment you had stepped onto the massive vessel, it had been nothing but crowds of angels looking your way, some wanting to come up and speak with you but feeling too nervous to actually go through with it, others seemingly wary, and still more simply curious, determined to see what this incarnation of the "Lord," was like, one that had come from their home Celestia.
It had been interesting enough at first, but their constant attention had quickly become draining, and so, with a somewhat forced smile, you had pushed your way out of the cabin and onto the deck in an attempt to be alone. The ship was massive, far bigger than the thirty or so angels on board needed to descend to Ecclesia, but because you had to go through enemy territory in order to reach the school, and a God was on board, it seems that your Celestia had sprung a bit more on this year's transport to the school.
This ship even had weapons, which was rather rare in this day and age.
Normally the passengers were the weapons.
If you rode on a ship, you were expected to help defend it.
Thankfully, the air seemed to be clear of hostiles, and there was no one else out on the sky deck, so you had it all to yourself...
"Oh? So you ran out here..."
...Or at least you had had it to yourself.
Although there were worse people that could have interrupted you.
As a childhood friend, Celes probably had that right to chase you down when you fled.
"It's a bit crowded in there, huh?" walking past you, towards the railing, the teal haired girl smiles as she leans back against it, "Feeling any better about godhood yet?"
