Crosspost from the deltarune boards. SPOILERS ALERT.

-"Only they can seal the fountains and banish the Angel's Heaven". The Angel's Heaven sticks out a lot obviously and it seems like we got nothing remotely hinting towards it in chapter 1, but interestingly "fountain" is pluralized here.

I have a theory that the Angel's Heaven is actually Hometown.

In Undertale, the info we get about the angel is as such:
There is a prophecy. The Angel... The One Who Has Seen The Surface... They will return. And the underground will go empty.

The one who has seen the surface are Asriel and Chara.

Asriel would find Hometown akin to a heaven (Chara is more of a psycho), since it's full of the monsters living in the underground but they're living free above ground and have a normal, functioning society. Asriel is also nowhere to be seen in Hometown (since he's away on college) but is talked about with such fondness, so he's almost mythical -- like an angel.

There's also a church in town and the Dreemurs were (are?) devout followers. I can't remember if they explicitly worship the Angel but it sounds likely.

So yeah, I'm thinking that Hometown is something like Asriel's ideal world that came into being for...some reason. Perhaps by the power of the fountains.

Also I'm not truly sure on this next bit, but Asriel might've seen the monsters of the underground but not really got the time to know them well. Hence why everyone is slightly off: Bratty and Catty are not friends, Alphys and Undine don't know each other, and Sans is new in town. As opposed to Frisk, who got to know them.

One thing that throws a wrench into this theory is the fact that Toriel and Asgore are separated, so it's not a truly ideal world for Asriel.

Then, if we 'banish the Heaven' it might mean putting an end to Homeworld. And Chara's (?) arrival in the epilogue might be them going into their brother's Heaven in order to wreck it.
