towerofanimus | The Healer Awakes..

Characters: Raphael and you!
Setting: Around the Tower.
Format: I'll start in prose, but I'll match you!
Summary: Raphael wakes up in the Tower and explores, all while wondering why he can't connect to God.

Technically, Raphael couldn't sleep or feel tired. He was the angel of healing-it would be weird if he had to rest or felt exhausted. So, the fact that he woke up in a bed in an unknown place was troubling, especially with the fact that he couldn't feel a connection to God here. For some reason, somehow, it was cut off. Not one to panic, Raphael looked at the notes that were lying in front of him. The first contained some useful information about this place..but the other..it couldn't have been. He didn't remember God ordering Michael or Lucifel to start the end of the world..but this severed connection to God..could it be that the world had ended? But if so..then why was he here? Puzzled, Raphael got out of bed, not bothered by the fact that he was wearing a white jumpsuit. As long as he was wearing something, that was fine by him. The collar puzzled him though. He wandered out of his dorm floor and onto the hall, looking for other people and some answers. Maybe the other angels had been brought here, even if he couldn't sense them.

While the fact that he couldn't sense any souls from the people wearing red collars, the infirmary was a familiar environment. While there may not have been any sick people here, they may have been a few who knew what was going on, so Raphael will be here, healing whoever he can and trying to find some answers.

The books Enoch had written in Heaven were useful, as they provided quite a bit of information, so if you wander in here, you'll be able to find Raphael, looking over the shelves, trying to find something to explain his arrival here..and his severed connection to God.

Raphael wandered in here and, curious about the viewfinders, looked through one..only to feel a terrible, horrid pain and..sadness overwhelm him. Was the world over? If God had ordered the end of the world, that was fine..but he couldn't feel the connection to God or his other angels..he could only feel the loss of those connections, and..the pain of that loss. It was a new emotion, and not one that Raphael wanted to explore in-depth. He quickly looked away, trying to get control again, trying to calm down a little.

"Exactly. We have capable healers in this tower, even more now that you're here."

"So, even if something like this were to happen again, we would be able to handle it."

Raphael was always the most optimistic of the Archangels.

Which fits well (or disastrously) with Enoch's own sense of optimism.

"We will. We've little to fear from one another. Only..."

He looks down, pointedly. If they were on Earth it might have been taken to mean The Darkness.

If they were on Earth. However, Raphael knew that they weren't on Earth and that The Darkness didn't exist here.

He had to be talking about their hosts. He nodded, getting the message.

"And I'm sure we'll be able to face whatever they have in store for us as well."

"We can. Not unscathed, but we can."

"Well, scars and the like are why I exist. I am sure we shall all be alright."

There's a long silence while Enoch debates whether or not to tell Raphael he wasn't talking about physical scars.

He decides against it, eventually. They'd covered enough ground already, honestly, and he could deal with the typical angelic tunnel-vision later. ...He'd just have to remember to do it before Raphael learned it the hard way. "Everything will be fine."

While Raphael did think he was mainly talking about physical scars, he would be more than happy to help out with emotional scars as well.

..If someone noticed or pointed them out to him. However for the moment, he just replied.

"I am sure it will be. Just as long as we keep moving forward."
