Chapter 14

The Thyatira fortress, perched high on its jagged ridge, balanced on an edge between two deep and winding canyons. Belittled only by a two-thousand-foot cliff across the gorge, the structure demanded a silent majesty not seen in many places in Heaven.

At the top of a castle-like structure, reaching a height of five hundred and fifty-five feet, was a tall tower capped off with a sharp cone. The edifice seemed to guard the intersection of both canyons, an unwavering sentinel.

Uriel touched his hand to his brow. “Azarias, have you ever seen such magnificence? I could spend an eternity studying the architecture.” He sighed. “But I know that’s not our mission. Still, I never want to stop learning what God has exposed to me.”

Azarias felt his frustration. All the angels wanted to resume missions. They wanted to serve the Lord, but this hunt grated on their patience. Maybe he could light a little spark in Uriel to study the surroundings, just briefly. He knew that Uriel never felt closer to God than when he received knowledge, moments that confirmed his purpose in a world in which he didn’t stand the tallest and most radiant. They would hardly be noticed among the multitude of angels who conducted administrative missions here.

“Uriel, I don’t think the Lord would mind if we land at the lower gates and walk up to the main hall. It’ll give you a chance to study the complex from various angles as we walk.”

Uriel beamed.

Azarias smiled and patted him on the back. The angels landed in front of a large gatehouse that obstructed the main courtyard. The gatehouse invited visitors through a large twenty-foot arched door nestled under large cornices on the top. The cornices lined to the right and left, punctuated by large turrets on each side.

About a couple hundred feet to the right rising behind the gate stood a keep. It sat stout in shape, achieving a height of only about four hundred feet.

Uriel pointed to it. “Look at its girth, Azarias. The rectangular shape compliments the large cylinder donjon standing in the far back.”

Uriel turned circles, examining the arches and cornices, as they passed through the gateway.

Azarias leaned and whispered. “Okay, so far so good. We have not reached the crowd. There must be some assembly in the courtyard. Let’s try to blend in and let the Spirit guide our interactions. Remember, we are trying to uncover enemy angels and find out more about possible angels that are in hiding or imprisoned.”

Uriel grabbed his arm. “Tell me again what we do if we encounter one of these angels?”

“We try to counsel them as to their wrong decision and bring them back into the Lord’s fold. It is not too late.”

Uriel shot a worried glance. “What if they try to capture us the way they did Gabriel, Michael, and Squatinidale?”

Uriel stopped. “Azarias, I see my role as a strategist and resource for knowledge.
