The female with the hair like fire disappears behind a line of old trees, leaving me alone in the cave.

Erelah.

That's what she told me her name is.

Why did she save me?

I've never met an angel like her before, so willing to help me, a Nephilim. Doesn't she know that I'm her enemy? That all I want is to destroy her and her world for the glory of Ophyr?

Maybe she saved me because she knows what I am and hopes that by doing so, she would make me change my mind about killing her. Fool!

She will be the first to die by my hand.

I would have killed her by now if not for my foolish decision of forcing my way into this world, leading to my collision with the ground.

I should have waited for my soldiers to break the shield protecting this planet from Nephilim invasion. The shield is different from the one we've encountered so far, making me believe it hadn't been Pandora who erected it. Pandora had been a fool when she thought she could escape me after dragging me to the darkest corner of the Universe and leaving me there to perish. It took my soldiers and me a long time to escape that hellish place. Once I was free, I chased Pandora from one corner of the Universe to the other. She thought that by stealing our divine power, she would stop us. Nothing can.
