The Tower of the Word

The Tower of the Word, divine realm of Clementia, is a city of infinities, an immeasurable towering metropolis of layers upon layers of stratified cityscapes connected to one another by spiralling staircase roads and twisting promenades to connect the city to itself repeatedly.   All dedicated members of Her faith are welcomed to the Tower of the Word, as long as they have demonstrated their acceptance of the tenets espoused by Her teachings. When they enter the city, they must live with family, or with community centres until they can construct a home with the help of any willing volunteers.

Geography

Each layer of the Tower is named, but so few are of relatively significance, as their inhabitants are content to live the best and happiest lives they can in this city of the blessed. Still, some layers of note do exist;   The Court of Communion, which contains a layer-wide temple, is set aside for those who wish to speak to Clementia directly. The Court is open to all, and can be reached magically by asking Her for an audience while climbing any stairway.   The Tower Censereum, which contains a near layer-wide archive for recording the deeds and genealogies of the citizens of the Tower. The Censereum is only accessed from the Court of Communion, usually by dedicated scribes and scholars that have requested and been chosen for the rask.   The Crier's Court, which is accessed only via the Censereum, contains a lavish hall within which the criers and heralds of the Tower collect and distribute correspondence, messages, and news. The remainder of the layer contains lavish gardens the criers use to grow inks and flowers, and to relax in private beyond the requests of their fellows.   Sainhal Court contains residences for each Exemplar anointed by the gods and the Empire, though many choose to live with family instead. Exemplars are sometimes asked by the gods to act or intervene in the mortal world on behalf of another divine, and the Sainhal Court provides a respectful way to make such a request to a revered matyr enjoying their afterlife.   The Celestial Court, which contains both a forum for all of the gods of the pantheon to meet and commune with one another, and the palace of Clementia Herself, protected by Exemplars, Heralds, angelic guardians, and androsphinx.
