They hadn't just gone mad. They had changed physically as well. In such a short time, these heavenly soldiers, once infused with Angelic power, had turned into monsters.
Uriel couldn't help but feel frustration and despair as she realized the extent of the situation. This had already spiraled far beyond her control.

The pounding on the doors didn't stop. The monsters were already chasing after them.
