Cathedral

Cathedral is the capital of the Church of Veritas. It is situated at the very end of the Veritian Leaf. It is where the Lesser Races emerged unto Neih. They build a grand cathedral to consecrate the spot to Veritas. That cathedral is still there, built on the peak of the leaf as the continent inclines sharply at that spot. The city has stretched out from that monument ever since, becoming the largest and most populated city on the continent. To best understand Cathedral, it is like the Path to Veritas compressed into a city.

Government

It is managed by the council of Paracletes, though often the council leaves that municipal charge to the paraclete of Frit. Even so, the city is split up in many districts, all with their local governments and factions.

Defences

Cathedral has more than just walls defending it. Though their standing army was not called up since the Sundering, and would not be called up again until the attack of the Eternal Empire, it has magical and celestial safeguards in place to fend off invaders. Their piece de resistance is their Watchman, celestial golems that pack a punch. The Veritian Absolutes would often boast that their Watchman could match any army in the world.

Districts

They have a dozen districts, split into three categories:   Top
  • Veritas: Where the Cathedral is, and solely that. Yet, even if it only consists of one building, it still rivals the size of other districts. The Cathedral has been growing since day one on the leaf, and currently holds fifty thousand residents.
  • High Neih Glories: The district closest to the Cathedral. It used to be the old city before the Sundering, and some of the ruins could still be found, but it has become a garden that walls Veritas off from the other Districts. It has 18 wardens all named after the Uzite gods who act as both the symbolic and actual guards to Veritas. A large gate called the Uzite Gate stands between High Neih Glories and Veritas.
