Angelfall question

I really wish this was one of those rules made to be broken but if Raffe broke this rule it would go against everything he's stood for throughout his existance! As much as I want Penyrn and Raffe together (and I REALLLYY want them to be together!) I feel Raffe is the only one who can lead the angels off Earth. I'm worried their ending is going to be bittersweet.

But you know wjat Gayatri, if that was to be the ending i would hate/love the book. It would be original in that guy and girl wouldnt be together but then also it would crush fans' hearts. One thing i admire about the book is that the characters are not stupidly swayed by their emotions but by their goals in life.

I like the Daughter of Man rule because it adds real tension to the feelings they are developing for each other. I want there to be serious consequences for breaking the rule so there is something actually on the line if they go ahead and disregard it.

When I was young I was taught the story of the nephilim, that angels who were supposed to only watch humanity flouted the rule and took human women for wives since they saw no reason not to. Their children were monstrous and cruel aberrations. I really hope Susan Ee takes the story in this direction.

It wouldn't totally preclude a romance for Raphe and Penryn because they don't have to have children, but it would add that extra element of risk and give them both a reason to fight their feelings.
