Within Raphael, there was not only the will of the Oldest One, but also the lingering psyches of God Almighty and the Celestial Worthy, which served as deterrents.
Raphael felt the situation did not yet warrant asking the Oldest One to act, but he had an idea he wanted to verify.
So, during his brief nap earlier, he had sought out the lingering psyches of God Almighty and the Celestial Worthy for a friendly discussion.
Their lingering psyches were different from the Oldest One's. Although everyone was getting along harmoniously now, he might have to become their enemy or seal them away at some point.
Asking them for help was not very realistic either. After all, they were full of schemes and might suddenly play some nasty trick while helping.
Using them as advisers, however, was still perfectly fine.

Audrey immediately thought of it. "That red wooden door!"
"Exactly." Raphael
