Imperial Capital – Grand Cathedral of the Holy Light
In the Grand Cathedral of the Holy Light, in the imperial capital of Castrellon, the air was thick with the scent of burning incense and polished oak, the distant hum of chanting priests echoing through the grand halls.
At the very center of the sanctum, beneath a massive domed ceiling etched with celestial sigils, Head Priestess Isode knelt before the Holy Transmission Crystal—a crystalline monolith that pulsed faintly with divine energy.
The air shimmered around the crystal, and a soft chime resonated through the chamber as the transmission connected.
A ghostly blue-white image of a priest flickered into view, his face shadowed beneath the hood of his white-and-gold robes.
