Satan stands before the gates of Heaven, his dark form towering and wreathed in flames. The gates, normally radiant and inviolable, tremble beneath his gaze, their gentle carvings now flickering with uncertainty. Around him, the clouds twist with a storm not seen since the dawn of creation.
With a roar that shakes the firmament, Satan bursts through the gates. Angels in radiant armor rush to meet him, swords drawn and faces resolute, but one by one they are struck down, their halos dimming as their forms crumple beneath his crushing steps. The marble floor of Heaven fractures, stained with the light of fallen guardians.
Descending from the heights, Jesus, robed in soft linen and crowned with thorns of flame, stands alongside God, a presence both ancient and kind, and the Virgin Mary, her eyes wide with sorrow and resolve. Together, they gaze upon the devastation, their voices echoing with heartbreak and defiance.
"You will not triumph here, not while faith endures,"
"Faith is dust beneath my feet," Satan sneers, his shadow enveloping the shattered hall.

With ruthless speed, Satan seizes the Virgin Mary. Her cry rings out, blending anguish and defiance, as his grip tightens. He crushes her with merciless force, her form dissolving into light, while he turns on Jesus and God, mocking their grief.
"Watch, saviors. Your hope is as fragile as your saints,"
Jesus and God stand side by side, their powers combined in a storm of light and word. Energy arcs between them, their resolve unbroken as they confront the darkness. Yet Satan, fueled by fury and triumph, surges forward with unstoppable strength.
"We are not alone—our love is everlasting,"
"Creation will rise again,"
But Satan overwhelms them, his power eclipsing even the divine, and with a final, crushing blow, he brings both to their knees and grinds them beneath his feet.

Amid the wreckage, Satan surveys his conquest, a twisted smile cutting across his face as the echoes of defeat fade. The heavens burn with his victory, their light dimmed but not extinguished. As he revels in his triumph, the world below shudders, sensing that a new order has been forged from the ashes of the old.
"At last, the age of darkness begins,"
Yet somewhere, hidden in the drifting light, a single feather glows—silent promise that hope cannot be crushed forever.
