KESTREL MARRIAGE NEXT SESSION ??? WIVES REAL!!!

Man there’s been this thing in like. The background radiation of the dnd campaign I’m in where one time the party bard gave Kestrel an old loaf of bread when she was going back home to the Ravenite temple to feed the ravens and ever since then Kestrel has been feeding and caring for them regularly because she loves them a lot and there was a moment last session where she was inconsolably upset and like knock down drag out sobbing on the bench she likes to feed them at and they were just piling shiny and colorful things around her to try to make her feel better and I feel very normal about this

Sooooo turns out thousands of years ago Kestrel’s ancestor had been trying to find another angel that mattered a lot to her (unclear on relationship) that was dragged to the abyss and subsequently traded around as a status symbol and wound up in the hells after being lost in a battle with a demonic general as a trophy of the devil that killed Kestrel (with a sword likely made from that demonic general.) Also turns out that this dude prides himself on breaking and collecting angels into his service. The party actually freed and befriended one of these that had been being used as a siege weapon. And before Kestrel’s mother died (killed by that same angel they freed btw!) she had also been turning into an angel and received a divine vision of wings blotting out the sun with an angelic chorus. Kestrel’s ancestor has likely been asserting her will upon her descendants to try to free her friend/lover (?) and Kestrel has now inherited a divine purpose to free a captured host of angels. She has to go to hell! She’s fine!!!!!
