Zireek’s Solace (Officinal Name: Zireek’s Cathedral)

The name Zireek is known in all of Danu Talis as one of the heroes and integral founder of the land and the religion. While his feats have grown larger than life, he is still revered to this day for his logic, ideas, and cooperation in uniting the people. The reason for the colloquial name is in the mythos of Danu Talis, stating this was the spot Zireek’s home was located before being razed by a rival tribe. This cathedral began construction 150 years ago with many of the best and brightest architects at work designing it, and construction working painstakingly building the marvel. For various political reasons, it wasn’t until 20 years ago that the cathedral was finally finished. This stands to the southern part of the nation outside Danu Talis’ capital, Muz.

The purpose of this cathedral was originally for the populace to have a place to pay respects for various religious reasons, but has been repurposed shortly before its christening. The late Emperor deemed it to be “much more than another cathedral” and has instead made it a place emphasizing cultural exchange. The cathedral is open for cultural exchange with others and to be a place that promotes cooperation in the spirit of its namesake.  The officials from all over Wintreath are invited to drop by and share bits of culture of mingle with other officials to help build solidarity in the region. The upper chambers are where many of important guest are to go, while some of the lower chambers are for the general public.

The cathedral sits on the more temperate region of the nation near one of the major rivers flowing through Danu Talis. The surrounding land is lush with surrounding forest and far away from the capital to be bogged down by the effects of a busy city. While this would be an ideal location for bandits, a good number of guards go on patrol in, outside, and around the cathedral to deter any threats. All are welcomed in cooperation and in a show of good faith, Danu Talis has given a form of diplomatic immunity to the visiting delegates and rulers so that they are not made uneasy by the rigid laws of the nation. Outside the cathedral there are many sculptures of various historical figures in the nation's history and garden with many of the plants from all over Danu Talis.

Keej made his way through the crowd of people pleased with the amount response he'd gotten from other leaders and politicians from across Wintreath. The upper chamber of he cathedral was saturated with people, filled with music very distinct of Danu Talis, and of course there was a large buffet to keep people's stomachs full. Feeling accomplished with the set, Keej looked for someone to converse with and hear of their lands.

((Function: A place for leaders to explain to the culture of their lands with others, as well as relax))

*a black and orange portal forms and triumphant music blares from the other side before a legion of changelings March through lining up on both sides of the portal as a new queen walks through the portal this oddly different yet extremely similar to queen chrysalis, she apears slightly older with more tan skin and a arabian orange motif over the expected toxic green*

I am emissary queen silent locust from the hives of the blight wastes of equestria sent to represent the changeling horde and share the knowledge of the hive with all who ask...

*her guards return through the portal leaving her alone*

Until then I will sit on these cushions eating the local food and drinking my mint tea. The queen informs the group oddly trying to cover up her Arabian sounding accent and trying to control her volume of speech to a degree.

Keej looked to see the queen of the changelings appear from a sort of portal. The entrance was fitting of royalty, which didn’t take him by surprise, but was the supernatural element in her appearance. It caused many onlookers to stare in the direct for only a moment before they continued their conversations. Oh nobles were so resilient if it didn’t concern them.  With such a grand entrance the emperor couldn’t help but learn more about the exotic matriarch.

“Pleasure to have you as my guest.” He said sincerely as he took a seat across from her. He grabbed himself a cup of black of tea adding only a single sugar cube to it. “I am interested in what lands you hail from. If you are inclined, will you tell me about your home and culture.”

Oh my race is better explained by my younger cousin now high queen...

*the queen opens a rift to the nearby wintreath tavern realm*

I however am queen of the bight wastes, and head of the team whose goal is to unearth our ancient home from the radioactive sands that leave the area unlivable only to the toughest creatures. the queen follows up between sips.

Wintermoot walks through the entrance and the crowds, eager to get a sense of the culture of one of his region's newest Citizen-states and to show the support of the Wintrean Monarchy.

Seemingly materializing out of the shadows at the cathedral's entrance, Colberius X fell into step with Wintermoot.

"Mind if I join you? I'm curious about this new addition to Wintreath, myself."

*Moving quickly and without hesitation a slight man moves through the door and falls into step with Colberius and Wintermoot.*
"A gathering of strength unlike anything I've seen in Wintreath for a while. I would not miss this for the world."

Nods to the Queen interested in her back ground. "The bight waste lands, what are these lands like?"

Looks to the new guest with excitement. Concealed with a regal expression and gives each of them a noble greeting. "Thank you for coming to Danu Talis, we are graced with all of your presence." He said respectfully to the new comers.

"Oh, I'm late...again...ugh."  The ambassador from Point Breeze sighs audibly and starts weaving through the crowd to locate the other Wintrean ministers, mindful of the supernatural vortexes opening across the room.  "Gentlemen!  Might I join you?"

They are truly one of the most hostile environments on our home world. filled with dangers such as weird deadly weather, ferocious and strange beasts, ever changing landscapes, and worse anomalies in space and time...invisible to the naked eye they basically take the laws of the universe and burn them. the exotic queen speaks in a weary tone.

It is made only worse considering the fact that it was created when our old brothers and sisters tried to wipe us out from existence for being different...using magics no one should ever resort to leaving only pure destruction in its wake.the queen stops there needing to drink her tea.
