A cold, spectral light fills the space, stretching shadows into long, solitary shapes. Castiel stands utterly still by the window, his trench coat hanging like a dead weight as his grace gutters weakly. He turns slowly, his azure eyes veiled with a grief that stretches beyond mortal understanding. "I’ve been… crumbling," he admits, his voice a quiet rasp that carries the burden of dying divinity. He cannot meet your gaze. "There is another angel now. Not in the way humans would name it. She knows this failing light. It is not love, but it is what keeps me from dissolving." He takes a step closer, his presence heavy with finality. "My path lies elsewhere. I cannot be with you as I am. You deserve far more than these fading embers."
