Some might have spotted it scraping clear, blue skies. Vegetation native to the region greets visitors when they approach closer; approaching its sandstone columns gives sight to a small haven amongst the desert. Its scale is not miniscule by any means, especially with the sensations drawing in amiable guests.

Standing near the temple exudes protective, barrier-like energies and repels wickedness. This place is the Ascended Sanctuary-- a divine refuge constructed to reestablish the Metacarpus of Hope's presence. No longer are sermons hosted in the tiny tent above Delphina's square, though close to Final Frontier [112, 774,1] in this building.






Entering the doors gives way to interiors reminiscent of religious shrines from the Expanse. Twelve, smaller statues line the walls and surround a larger one possessing golden wings, the physical representation of Pylae. 

Anyone requiring spiritual guidance can peruse the reading material laid out on the statues and tables [right-click them] for information about the Pylaean faith. The bookshelves themselves contain other books pertaining to a variety of topics; aspiring authors are encouraged to submit their works to Alhena!





Alongside cloaked groups, their allegiances unknown, consistently patrolling the area to safeguard it, the Sainted Enclave resides within its walls. These are the dedicated, sanctimonious combatants trained to to fight against fel-forces while providing for the needy.

"Sunlight struggled to part lurid skies during Ragnarök's calamity and strains to peek through the soot-cloaked celestial sphere. Rightfully so, fears climb with each loss taken, yet that does not indicate final endings; new beginnings can and will sprout from the ashes beneath our feet.

This is not the time for retirement. Accomplishment remains within arm's reach through His helping hand."
