kidding he takes the note, and then pulls his own out of his satchel.
Few are able to prove themselves worthy of ascending, to earn their wings and join the angels. For those that do, I wonder — is it worth it? Does this truly grant the power to save those they wish to protect? Or does it simply put them directly in harm's way? ]
It feels as though yours might match up with what Mr. Kotetsu had last week, too - the connection between other worlds like our own.
Hm... So maybe the first note is about connectin' worlds, and the second is about the angels proper? [spare angel lore?] Gotta admit I didn't see what information Power's group came back with.
[Do we trust power to have read? She clearly cannot spell...]
Considerin' how the Celestials came back on Friday 'n how they were punished for what van Ziek's said... That's as good a guess as any. As far as I know, all six of 'em want to protect 'n that's why they agreed to take the job.
But they also didn't have much time to think about it.
...I believe we may have run into one of them when we were there - unmasked, and not wearing a cloak. It was hard to tell, but, it makes it all line up.

The story they say about ascension in this note...it feels correct to me, too. It is similar, in my world - that... sometimes, that sort of great power does little to help you. It can even be a hindrance.
We don't really have angels or these kinda things back home. I'm outta my depth. But to me it seems like they got forced into a deal they didn't know enough about.
Maybe. [ that he's not sure of. after all, he has no idea if that girl was actually the watcher, or if it was just an illusion, but... who's to say. ] I know that they are only slightly less limited, at least, when we speak with them in public.
But...I agree with you, too. I don't think any of them expected things to go the way that they have. All of the ones who I have gotten to know - they are truly very kind.

[ tch! he will have to go back...
either way. at the moment, xie lian nods along with the information bit, his expression shifting a little. ]
I have wondered if it was about not just the Angels, but... about the Watchers.

I don't think any of them are bad people. We've seen how they reacted at executions.
