Intelligence Breakthrough To Thwart

Despite all her insights, Sefira was caught off guard by the suggestion that one or more of her celestial soldiers ought to be subject to memory manipulation of a twisted sort. Although the Lesser Darkness had acquainted herself with Naomi's background some time ago, and in so doing became aware of the latter's penchant for memory drills, she did not expect her forces to be detected so easily, in the first place, by the Commonwealth of Heaven. At the same, she discerned that others in the immediate vicinity deemed sinister the calm that accompanied the suggestion.

As for Radueriel, she expressed mere startlement upon hearing what she had heard.

"This may be the intelligence breakthrough that my team has sought regarding our adversary!" claimed the intelligence chief, "We can find out not just what they're looking for, but also where they come from exactly and how to travel there and back!"

That same adversary determined that no winged suck-up from those around her would set grace upon the darkest domain in all of celestial existence. Although she designed this Darkest Domain to inhibit levitation and teleportation by any non-primordial being while in the realm, she could not countenance the presence of these particular multidimensional wavelengths of celestial intent, except perhaps as the additional subjects they were manipulated into becoming.

None of them would disgrace the valley between the plains of entry and what would appear to their limited perception as the tallest, widest, and darkest interstellar mountain.

None of them would parade themselves upon this mountain, Sefira Mons. None of them would traverse through great wall upon great wall, battlement upon battlement, round fortified tower upon round fortified tower, and maze level upon maze level, around the margins of the mountain. None of them would cause more than mischief upon the supervolcano systems of terrifying explosive power located towards the center of the peak, whether calderas or underground magma chambers.

None of them would inflict damage upon what stood at the center of all this, the skyscraping Dark Gateway of Divinity. None of them would destroy what crowned this edifice, the perfectly spherical device of nigh-omnividence and nigh-omniaudience.

Even as the angelic leadership agreed with this, and even as the Primeval Angel did not get past her startlement, the Lesser Darkness resolved to thwart this intelligence breakthrough.
