Golden Phantaso

High above the clouds, in the nests of the galaxy, there lies a treasure worth more than gold. Or rather, gold is exactly what it's worth. A creature crafted from the glistening metals of the Seven Suns. A creature bound to the dark surface but forged from the lights of heaven. An embodiment of radiance yet the kin of sin.
