From the Chronicles of Michael, Archangel.
"If you are reading this then I have become aware. It is then necessary, to educate you on our fall. I will begin with something you know. In the beginning there was God and God said, let there be light,' and there was. What you do not know is that from that light, the Angels were born.
We were God's first creation, born of that first light, in servitude. We were creations made of God, this is important, for as Man was created in God's likeness, we were created of God, with powers given to assist in God's plan. We were created to serve and to love God without question.
I remember those times fondly, as an adult remembers childhood. Those were golden times of joy and rapture in God's service. A chosen few stood out in our devotion and skill. This in no way implies that we were anymore special than any other; this is not God's way. We were just able to lead. These select servants were given dominion over other angels. We became Archangels. Each Archangel had governance over other angels to ensure we stayed to His plan.
Before you ask, why the need for Angels? It was what God wanted. I never questioned God's plan, in fact I only asked God one question in the millennium I served, but I will get to that later. God is a being so apart from us all that no one could ever truly understand his design. He talked in riddles and questions, always the teacher. He never answered questions, but rather posed a question to lead you to the answer. He truly is the first Rabbi.
Let me move forward to the creation that leads to our undoing, Man. The focus of His plan was to build a universe all focused on a small blue planet you call earth. This was where all our building and creating was to come to fruition. This is where God made his children, this is where God made his house and we followed him blindly.
Adam was perfect, Eve was beautiful and we marveled at their likeness to our Master. We were overwhelmed with the joy of being witness to God's true children. They were perfect in all ways, and devoted to the Father who created them. They lived in Eden, the perfect land and home. They wanted for nothing and lived, ate and slept under the Father's watchful eye. We watched them with awe and compassion, until the day they became aware.
This story is not new, but what was happening above, you would not know unless I told you. Our Master when creating Man decided that his servants should share in the most precious of gifts, free will. As any
