Time is defined by beginnings and endings, he whispered to Raphael as they drifted on blackest wings over a formless ocean of dark.
(For this was before the memory of light, when "Morningstar" meant "change-herald," and Raphael's role was to heal and protect against change.)
Listen, he whispered again, I touch your breath, and pleasure washes in the touch's wake. Touch is fleeting, words are fleeting, and would it not be beauty if we too were fleeting?
Raphael hesitated. But after endings, there is nothing.
Lucifer's smile glittered blackly in triumph. Raphael, did you not know? There, too, God dwells.
finis.
