Angels of Light
The Pious and Strict Ones
Who Are They?
Angels of Light are one of several ethnic groups that reside in Heaven. They are the most religious and pious of the angels being very strict and unwavering in their beliefs and ideas. They are very judgemental towards the
Angels of Fire, who are very carefree and, hence (in their eyes), not pious and discourage their children from interacting with them. Other ethnicities, especially the Angels of Fire, see them as old-fashioned, overbearing and, in general, inflexible. Despite these negative (but frankly true) opinions, Angels of Light are the kindest and most caring beings who usually comfort uneasy souls that not even the Angels of Souls can calm.
They are also known for their ability to create, manipulate and destroy all forms of light.

Art & Architecture
The architecture of important buildings and structures in their home Albis Nubila is grandiose with tall quartz and marble pillars, intricately carved designs and overall simplistic yet harmonious and uniform structuring. This style represents the orderly, measured and strict nature of the Angels of Light. Meanwhile, the design of the homes or places of residence is full of riches and splendour, with large plant-filled terraces, multiple fountains and wide open spaces.

- Halos must be polished to a shine
- Clothes must always be a pristine white or gold (any other colour is reserved for special occasions only)
- One must not wear anything that would make one stand out unnecessarily (unless it's a special occasion)
- Medium-lengthed or long hair (short hair is frowned upon) should be neat and well-kept; must never be shaved.
- Slim or fit curvy figure (chubby or plumb figures are frowned upon as one would be seen as gluttonous)
- Unblemished skin
- No outlandish or distracting jewellery, e.g. large earrings, bright rings, etc. (doing so would cause one to come across as vain)
- The hems of skirts or dresses must always be below knee-length (wearing a shorter skirt or dress would cause one to be seen as promiscuous)

- Slim physique (being chubby is heavily frowned upon as one would be seen as gluttonous)
- Beards should be well-groomed; no stubs
- Must not wear any form of jewellery other than their rosaries (doing so would cause one to come across as rebellious and unholy)
Gender Ideals
Females are typically expected to cook, clean and care for the children while the males are expected to protect the household, though it's perfectly fine for the roles to be reversed.
Courtship Ideals
If a male expresses interest in marrying a female, he must first receive permission from her parents or guardians and his parents must also approve the union. After both parties receive the approval of their parents, the
Pre-honeymoon begins. The pre-honeymoon is where both parties spend ten years together in the Garden of Eden to determine whether the couple is truly compatible, enjoys each other's company and loves each other. Only when the couple successfully passes this step can they officially marry.
Relationship Ideals
Relationships must be respectful and open-minded, with no one-sidedness and plenty of honesty, tolerance and patience. In addition, relationships must never be sexual or inappropriate.-Mother Mariam, Head of The Central Church
We are the Angels of Light; the holiest, greatest and most prestigious angels in Heaven.-Mother Mariam, Head Nun of The Central Church
