Long ago, when Saint Lucifer, the first black winged and black haired angel was cast out of Heaven he laid down a curse against Heaven that one day his descendant of the Seraphim class would be brought forth to carry this curse and bring change to the Three Kingdoms of Heaven, Hell, and Earth. From thence forth for a few centuries black winged and black haired angels faced unjustified persecution and segregation.
One day, a young white winged angel by the name of Remiel had spotted the young, black haired female Seraph with crimson eyes amongst a group of black winged fledglings. Her wings were neither white nor black, but a deep and bloody shade of crimson. After a short while word had completely spread of the strangely colored girl. It didn't take long for the Council of Heaven to hear the rumors from their rather upset people. The Council knew why their people were upset and suspected the young Seraph for the same reason. It also didn't take them long to find out where she lived in hiding.
Seraiyana was a quiet and shy young teen born to a family of white winged angels. Her father had died when she was little during a war against the demons who had rebelled long ago. Her mother, Terine, had taken care of Seraiyana on her own after the death of Kaille. Kaille and Terine had loved their daughter regardless of her strangely colored wings and eyes. Though, as much as they loved her, they knew that she would spark a panic throughout Heaven and they knew that because of this, Seraiyana would never be allowed to leave the house.
But after Kaille's passing it had proved to become more and more difficult for Terine to keep her curious daughter indoors. One day, while her mother's back had been turned, Seraiyana made her escape and wandered the pathways outside. It was then that she found the group of black winged fledglings. It was there that she met Meniel.
He was a rather excitable young man about the same age as Seraiyana. He would boast rather loudly about how he could take on the white wings and how he would lead a rebellion one day. Seraiyana, who had been hiding nearby had overheard him during one of his boasts and couldn't suppress her laugh well enough. He turned and spotted her. His eyes widened at the sight of her wings. He didn't show any sign of being perturbed, but more of a slight curiosity. The other black winged fledglings also showed a slight curiosity towards her and she was quickly accepted into their group.
It was then that she was spotted. Having become alarmed by Remiel's shouts after spotting the young Seraph, the group of fledglings began to scatter in a wave of panic. Meniel grabbed hold of Seraiyana's arm and pulled her along as he weaved through the crowd of panicking fledglings. He continued to pull her along until he thought the coast was clear. He figured is was too dangerous for her to return home on her own, so he let her guide him to her home as he made sure no one intercepted them. Unknown to the duo, a guard nearby but out of sight, kept watch of the two as they made their way there.
Thought to be the cursed angel, the guard informed the Council of the Seraph and her position. The Council of Heaven immediately sentenced her to death. But when the executioner went to retrieve Seraiyana the Seraph, her mother refused to give her up and was slain in front of the young girl's eyes. Then the executioner began to drag her away. Nearby, Meniel had spotted the guard dragging his new friend out the door of her home. Enraged, he charged at them in an attempt to free her and was also immediately cut down before her eyes.
She was placed before the Council of Heaven who read off the accusations against her, stating them as if it had been a crime against God himself just to have bloody crimson wings and crimson eyes. She was then placed in a prison cell to be held for a week to await her execution. For each day of six days of the week she was imprisoned a bloody wing would be torn out slowly until all that were left of the six wings were bloody lumps and tears in her pale flesh.
On the day of her execution, word began to spread like wildfire through Heaven that a demon had gotten through the Gates. This demon, Korinn, roamed quickly throughout Heaven in search of a strong angel to fight; his rampage leaving many injured in his wake.
When he reached the center of Heaven he saw Seraiyana as she knelt before the executioner Remiel, and his winged blade, the back of her silvery robe caked with blood, bits of her flesh, and the spit of the guards who tortured her endlessly. She then looked up Korinn, her crimson eyes, dulled from depression and begging to have her spirit released, met his vivid violet gaze.
Realizing that the girl was to be executed, Korinn darted forth and snatched the young Seraph and quickly made his way back towards the Gates with the executioner hot on his heels. But as he approached his exit he noticed the Gates were closing and fast. He smirked as he picked up speed and darted past the Gates with the sullen girl in his grasp. He then made his way to Earth where he freed the Seraph and convinced her to go into hiding. And with that he left her with nothing but his cloak and a pendant to mask her in the realm of the humans.
It is said that to this day she still is on the run as a wanted fugitive hiding amongst the humans.
