All is fair in love and war is a marvel at the heart of Raphael’s exploits right from the beginning of time to modern society. A story structured by alliances, disloyalty, self-worth, grief and the satire of second chances.

Throughout the timeline Raphael’s relationships between Elohim, his parallels, mankind, his nemesis the devil, and his unlikely friendships give the reader a front row seat into behind the scene conversations and supernatural acts of angels all the way through from biblical events that would go on to shape the course of human history to contemporary times when he assumes full responsibility of a gifted human that gets actively involved in the eternal battle of good and evil.

CHAPTER TWO: “I WILL NOT CONTEND WITH SUCH WICKEDNESS”

Much to the apprehension of Lucifer and his fallen comrades for losing the war he had instigated in Heaven, he charged them into the pits of hades to release ancient prisoners from times old and the death serpent called Vaqua that he may establish his kingdom with more forces to do his bidding. When they broke into the gates of the underworld, they reached the tunnels waking up thousands upon thousands of chained spirits. When they had set them loose, Lucifer addressed the assembly:

Pledge your allegiance to me and not only have I given you your liberties but I will also exalt you for all your troubles in the last millennia. You were all sentenced here against your will, without a fair judgment, without a fair hearing. I was there and I give witness to this, and when I opposed the one that sits on the throne for his ever increasing unfair rulings he cast us out of the courts of Heaven. For now he has a kingdom with an army. But join me and my brothers, for empires are made by allies! WE as we all stand here do have a common enemy; a common force stands against us but if we unite our efforts we will endure, and I promise to lead you into the new age!”

After his speech all the demons and fallen angels gave out harmonious roars and rallied behind him, with Vaqua as their champion above other spirits…………
