Heavenly Blossoms

[Tristam]

2132 AC

One year has passed since the disappearance of Azalea Aubreen since her call of the Pantheon. 

With it, what once was a beacon of Light within the Final Frontier, Solais stands withered.

The faithfull of the Heavenly Blossom Church, be magi or non magi, scatter to react to these events. 

One third of them remained in the Carnation District, still assisting the scholars and the drones to physically sustain the remains of Solais, with all means possible. 

Another third leaves on a diaspora across the continent, sharing the tenets of Life and Hope to inspire the words of the Constants upon the living. 

And the last one moves to assist Arcadia, where the faith of Azalea and Harmony is now located and assist with recovering on Azalea's legacy, in hope of potentially indirectly helping with the restoration of Solais.

The Radiant and Champion of Life, Svengalf Sandsker, last remaining highest graded member of the Church, coordinated this movement after a tumultuous year of preparation and mourning for the loss endured. But near the shore of the Final Frontier, on a boat, that he declares the following.

My dear friends of Meranthe,

As much as I wanted more time to properly prepare these words and this year, I announce that I will be taking part of a journey of 2 years to help ressourcing myself, and connect with my roots.

Many of you know how much the recent losses have affected me personally. As much as I am aware of the struggles everyone in Meranthe is facing. As much as I want to help all of you, there is a saying that clarity of self is what allows to see others'.

The faithfull of the Church will continue to support the best they can, either in coordination of the Proto-Institute or with the Faith of Harmony within Arcadia to help protecting the legacy of Azalea. I will ask then my followers to be mindfull of the crests you hold upon their religious outfits to not cause trouble withi the nation you represent. You have sworn an oath to Life or Hope, but it does not make you above the local laws.

For any religious inquiries, you may reach my latest initiate Sacilia Ueda who is baptized under the Lotus of Life, and I am confident with her ability to give solace shall you need a prayer or counselling.
Otherwise, for any inquiry about Azalea, you may ask Eleos and Mitra within Arcadia.

I pray for your safety while I am away, I am looking forward to return here with a renewed spirit !

And on these words, the Elder Lapine was seen to sail to the horizon.

OOC : IRL Vacations happening. I won't be able to log ingame normally as I won't have a PC available. But I am still reachable on Discord meanwhile !

Have fun all :)
