Heaven shimmered like a dream painted in stardust and silence. The skies above us rippled with soft gold and pearlescent blue, clouds flowing like silk beneath our feet. As soon as we crossed the veil between realms, Gabriel turned to us with a grave nod.
"She wishes to see us. All of us."
She. There was only one 'She' here.
The Moon Goddess.
Flanked by angelic guards in robes that glowed with woven starlight, we walked toward the throne hall. I walked beside Gabriel, our strides measured and reverent, while Charmeine and Andrew followed behind. His footsteps were cautious, eyes darting in every direction like a child trying to memorize an impossible dream. I didn't blame him. Few mortals ever walked this path. Fewer still with wings waiting for them at the end of it.
The grand doors
