Fallen

Gadreel: (to Azazel) You know, your speech has improved, but your clothes suck. You need real ones. Angelic robes aren't as stylish as they used to be.

Grasic: Angels, warring amongst themselves because of mankind. Lucifer's ambitions sprang from envy that angels were no longer God's favorite creation. At the beginning of Milton's epic, he has suffered a crashing defeat. Lucifer and his followers had been banished from Heaven forever. We see him struggling with self-doubt, we see he has hopes and fears, just like us. We identify with him. Yes? Chloe: So, the Devil, he's a good guy? Grasic: Well, he's certainly sympathetic. Lucifer sees himself as a victim. And it's fair to question whether the rebellion was his design or pre-ordained destiny. Aaron: Wait a second. Are you saying that Lucifer was created to rebel? Grasic: Is that so hard to believe? What is good without evil? Does doing the right thing have any meaning if there is no alternative? Aaron: But that doesn't make any sense. Grasic: Even if Lucifer was destined to become the epitome of evil, he made the choice to follow that path.

Ariel: Nobody dies on my watch.

Penemue: Sometimes I wonder what it would be like if Lucifer had won the war. I mean, it's not like he got us on his side with promises of an evil empire and eternal suffering. That came later. After the fall. I've tried my best to make up for what I've done. To help the humans defend themselves against what I helped to create, but, but there's just as much hate in the world, just as much suffering. More even so. Have I atoned for what I've done? I don't know. I just know I wanna go home. (Aaron walks up to her) Aaron: Then that's where you'll go.
