Synopsis:

Before a tribunal of his siblings, a Seraphim by the name of Raziel is found guilty for the murder of a defenseless angel. The verdict is unanimous. Exile. Sent to the mortal realm, he is left with a choice. Accept the consequences for a murder he did not commit or attempt to find the real murderer to restore the balance to his own world. Standing in his way is a deep fury he does not recognize as his own, and a guilt that makes him feel responsible for the murder despite the truth. A guilt involving a dead sibling no one remembers that may come to light should he attempt to clear his name. However, he is not the only one hiding things as secrets come to light, secrets that could very well push him down a much darker path than his betrayer could have foreseen.

Even as he decides his own fate, other stories unfold around him. A fellow angel attempts to heal the decay of heaven before the others learn of it. A priest experiences a crisis of faith and believes that only a sign from heaven will be his salvation, underestimating his own otherworldly abilities. And a homicide detective investigates a chain of haunting murders with only one thing linking them; a lack of evidence aside from the bodies, leaving behind a fear that there may be no turning back.

As they all strive to learn truths of their own, someone pulls the strings like a puppet master watching as the pieces fall into place. But as they manipulate the others, are they truly their own master?

If you wish to be removed from this story’s tags DM me and I will take care of you. On the flip side, DM or comment below if you wish to be added or if I have missed your name in the maelstrom that is Tumblr. Feel free to share my stuff with your friends and followers if you know someone who may like my work.

Also, if anyone knows whether @pilipalea changed to a new blog or not, as I cannot find them, please let me know. :) So that I can re-include them into my tag list.

Sorry, I don’t have an answer for you. I mention in my ask guidelines that I won’t answer any questions about coding because I am not super knowledgeable about it.

That being said, I do have a basic understanding of HTML, so I’m not the right person to ask in that respect either; I’ve never really looked up a guide.

In my experience, most theme makers include rather detailed instructions in the ‘edit HTML’ section of theme appearances so I would suggest you start there. You usually have to go and manually edit the HTML where the instructions say to edit to be able to add your own WIP information. Otherwise, please try contacting the creator of the theme instead.

If you’d like to ask me for advice on writing or running a writeblr, please check out my Ask Guidelines and FAQ first.
