Uriel smiled faintly. It wasn't until now that he realized that his words could be taken as an insult. Fortunately the girl didn't seem to be too offended.
At the girl's next words, however, he sighed. Yes, he was meant to be in the sky, wasn't he? Heaven was calling for him -- maybe not by the clouds, but in his heart. Perhaps it would be the best to simply leave. At least there he wouldn't have to worry about running into Pestilence.
But then again, what would that solve? Nothing, nothing at all. He would still be alone -- even more so, as Wednesday was in the Manor. In Heaven he would have nobody. Well, aside from Him, of course, but Him he could feel even down there. At least here he would know when something happened. Up in Heaven... According to what he'd heard, it was all just chaos as a result of Michael's Fall. That was not something he wanted to think about.
Yet still... He sighed. It wasn't easy for him anywhere, was it.
"Perhaps you're right," he said quietly to the girl, gazing up at the sky. "Perhaps the sky is calling me." Although if that was the case, he shuddered to think what the dagger (http://www.cloudgazing.com/Dagger.jpg) he saw up there meant.
