Summary: The angels have fallen, and Castiel is collapsing under the weight of what he’s done. Nothing is as it was before, and Dean struggles to find Cas before it’s too late to save him. The road, though, is full of many new and unpredictable obstacles, as fallen angels and the spread of untempered Grace are creating havoc all over the world. In this newly-ravaged, volatile climate of fear, Dean and Cas must rediscover how to rely on each other if they are to survive the wars both inside and outside of their own heads. Canon-divergent from 8.23.
