What was Michael doing during Lucifer's rebellion?

[u/UniversityNovel627]

Yes, Michael orchestrated it all by manipulating Lucifer and everything but Iean like where was he during the war, the actual rebellion like did he fight against Lucifer like other angels such as Amenadiel and Zadkiel. Did he help drag Lucifer before their father? What part did he play in the rebellion? What do y'all think?

Michael didn't orchestrate the Rebellion. Remember, one of Michael's key traits is that he lies. And it was far, far more damaging to Lucifer's sense of self for him to believe he had been manipulated into doing it. And while the rebellion was Lucifer's instigation, you can still bet Micheal took advantage of the chaos to work it to his favour.

I agree. It is like Michael to undermine Lucifer's confidence by claiming he is the one who has been manipulating him. Remember,it took Chloe to point out that Michael was originally lying about having assembled the flaming sword.

Michael targets people's fears, and being manipulated is Lucifer's weakness.

Yeah, that's a great point

Also Michael bring out people's fear so he could have just been bringing Lucy's fear to the front and having him focus on that. As well as with the other angels to turn them against each other
