How we cite our quotes: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #1
I could see exactly what was going to happen. And although technically there's free will and anything could have interfered with his death, like a timely muscle cramp to make him pause on the curb—or heck, a bird could have been flying overhead and suddenly taken ill in midair and Fallen on his head and knocked him out the second before he stepped into the street—there are laws of physics, and trust me, after millions of millennia, I can spot an inevitability. (1.11)
Kiriel's explanation of what will happen to Shaun shows us that it's a foregone conclusion. Sure, there's technically free will, but it's mixed with a side of fate, too. Say what? What we mean is, Shaun can choose to step off the curb or not (free will) but once he does, only one thing will happen (fate).
Quote #2
Since the Creator knows all in the vastness of time, you may ask yourself whether we the Fallen are merely carrying out our part in His plan. That is a question. Good luck getting an answer. (2.2)
We hear Kiriel's frustration with the Creator here. We also get that he doesn't have any control over anything—he believes there is free will, but he thinks the Creator might just have a plan for everyone to live out. There's just one problem: Kiriel goes against that plan by going to earth. Sounds like free will to us.
Quote #3
Is it the same way with souls? Do they have to serve a prearranged sentence imposed upon them by the Creator? Or do they know on their own when they've atoned for whatever they did or neglected to do? (2.13)
For a Fallen angel, this guy's got a lot of questions about what goes down in hell. He's unsure of whether human souls live out a predetermined time, or if they have any knowledge of what's happening to them. It seems like Kiriel doesn't really know if there's free will or not.
