The Fallen

My name is Sath My name is Sathariel, actually. I am one of those who people call ha-Satan. Yes, it means "adversary" in Aramaic and yes, it is "adversary of God". But for some reason, everyone has forgotten that those who you nicknamed like this, were first and foremost the defenders of people, who stand by you before a Heavenly court. It was providence we didn't choose. It was decided instead for us.
You, people, have given us many names, but none of them was correct, and you people, have given us functions completely unfamiliar to us. We were deities to you at first, then we became the outcasts. And we were Iyrin, the Watchers, who guard and protect you. And who decides if we've done our jobs well?
It would be foolish to make excuses now. Who am I to do this?
My name is Sathariel and it means "the one who is on the other side of God". But I'm just an archivist who writes time. Every moment of time, from the beginning of time.
Who am I? I'm just one of the Brethren, one among two hundred of "the fallen". But now... now I want to tell you our real story.
