This world will be cleansed,' they said, 'by our hand and the wrath of the light' they said.
They told us everything was going to be better. After all, angels lived to serve and protect the human race. Or so they claimed.
While it is true that they once regarded us as those 'born of The Light, for The Light, to become The Light'. It was years ago before the current date, when humans first came into existence. But as time went on, and ashes of dead worlds scattered over the new, they began seeing humans in a new light.
The definition of 'ignorance is bliss' incarnate. Mindless sheep in need of a shepherd, and they were more than happy to step forward.
Without hope, knowledge or understanding of their purpose man could do nothing as the devoted celestials slowly but surely turned to overlords. Nothing had changed.
