I had to own, it sounded a bit ridiculous when she phrased it as such, or at least I could imagine it might for someone who was not from my home and who had not lived with such a tale as factual history. I, who had felt the whisper of bronze wings, who had been brought out of a hell on earth through the guiding hand of Elua himself, knew it to be true. "Even so," I confirmed with a nod.
My lips twitched at her next comment. It was not the first time since coming here I had been described by someone as 'hot', and I thought it was meant to be taken as a compliment, or so it seemed given the context of when I'd been given such a label. "The Courcel line is descended from Elua himself," I explained further. "That is my father's heritage. From my mother, I am descended from the angel Kushiel, who was once the Punisher of God."
