When Valentia awoke from her coma, she found herself firmly bound to a massive stone pillar covered in runes. The runes on the pillar were clearly meant to suppress her power. Trapped there, Valentia could not muster even a trace of strength.

Still dazed, Valentia instinctively struggled a few times. Once she realized it was useless, she gave up. She felt that she needed to clear her head and figure out what had happened to her. After several deep breaths, her muddled mind slowly emerged from the weakness and dizziness of unconsciousness.

The first thing Valentia saw when she opened her eyes was the figure she hated with gritted teeth.

"It's you!!!! You bastard, you actually disguised yourself as a Solar!!!!" Valentia saw that it was Sanguinius.

By now, this Planetar had remembered everything that had happened before she lost consciousness. At the time, Valentia had been close to exhaustion, but then Sanguinius had suddenly appeared from the horizon. Already at her limit, Valentia had mistaken Sanguinius for a great Solar. And to be fair, Sanguinius really did look a lot like one.

(Among angels, Astral Devas were beautiful humanoids with silver skin. Their hair and eyes shone with transcendent radiance. Planetars were hairless and muscular, with faintly glowing green skin and white wings. One had silver skin, the other green skin. Only Solars resembled humans the most, which made them very similar to Sanguinius.)

Solars possessed godlike radiance and power. On the battlefield, their swords could dance freely without being wielded by hand, and every arrow they fired carried lethal force. The majestic authority of the heavens emanating from a Solar was enough to make even demon lords shrink back in fear. It was precisely because Solars were so powerful that Valentia had been so overjoyed at the time.
