Thank you! Actually, I'd assume Wolfram and Hart took down The First. They did give Angel the amulet in the first place, which implies they didn't want The First to get free and take over the world. However, just because W&H stopped The First doesn't mean the Apocalypse didn't happen. I'll just say that the first episode of AtS S6 (in comic) still applies (no spoilers here because that's not nice. If you haven't read the comics and want to be spoiled, I'll give deets in a cut entry for you.)

So, that's my thinking on it. I'd say this will be longer one day, but I'm so overwhelmed with my WiPs that even the though of another fic right now makes me cry... :)
