When those trumpets blow (The angels shall fall)

Summary:

The world was doomed to take a dark turn, and the gods were tired. They foresaw the terrible fate of the humans and decided to all but a hand in preventing it. They decided to bring in a being of balance from the heavy realm, a realm which even they have no power or control over. Unable to be influenced by the gods, they send one of their angels. It is said that whenever the gates of the heavens open, the seven trumpets will sound as a farewell. Bringing dangerous disasters forth...

Or: Kim Rok Soo un-ironically dying when he was fated to and becoming an angel with broken memories as a cherry on top

Notes:

The idea of Kim Rok Soo becoming an Angel was inspired by:
Death's Mockingbird by 4loeVer4_plant. And a bunch of Percy Jackson becoming a god fics which contributed to my lore building

Chapter Text

 

Chapter 1:

All trees shall burn,

All boats shall sink

 

The storm lasted 7 months.

 

It had terrified the whole continent, prayers and cries for the storm to end by the public went unheard. 

 

The disaster raged on

 

The sky raged on as thunder and a downpour strong enough to shake and smoothen out mountains fell. It destroyed crops and houses, carrying diseases and famine. 

 

The empire on the 3rd week was struck by a devastating fire.

 

Huge greedy flames engulfed a third of a forest due to a strike of thunder. The empire's mage barely had time to extinguish it in time before it affected more of the wildlife

 

On the second month, tall hurricanes invaded the Hais islands and neighboring kingdoms near the sea, many lives were lost as the storm raged higher and more powerful

 

The third month, the people rejoiced as the disaster faded. The downpour which felt like a hundred pounds of weight to whomever dared traverse had diminished, leaving rain and high winds which let the roads and kingdom borders to slowly open once again

 

The dark skies cleared to reveal a beautiful mask of stars in the deep blue roofing of the earth. 

 

The skies twinkled especially brightly as the people soon began building back what was destroyed.

 

Until a star fell.

 

The brightest star in the constellation was taken from the sky and crashed down on the western continent

 

This star embodied the shape of man

 

On the fourth month, the stars blazed brighter, so did the sun. As if punishing the earth with a scorching heat which dried out lakes and plants

 

Crops which had started to be grown anew died once more by the of the rage of the sun

 

By the fifth month, the people had grown weary and tired. Famine took away their strength as all they could do was pray. Repent on their actions and and wish for forgiveness so this disaster could stop

 

Their prayers went unheard, again.

 

Unusual plants began to sprout, their stems a dark green and their flower a shade of blue with a golden yellow like an odd mutation of Lenten roses and Habiscus

 

And on the sixth month, when all hope was lost the people's prayers had been ignored for too long, the star awoke

 

Being more powerful than what the average human could comprehend felt the presence of the star

 

The disaster was a warning.

 

Their instincts told them that a greater disaster would strike very soon, and they knew they had to prepare

 

A being of the heavenly realms has descended.

 

And on the seventh month, the reddish brown eyes of the angel had opened...
