The City of Innocents
Location: Mount Celestia / Lunia
The City of Innocents is a paradoxical haven nestled within the heartlands of Lunia, where the souls who believe they’ve got no sins to confess find themselves. It’s a place of eternal moral dilemma, where the very essence of advancement on Mount Celestia is tied to the recognition of one’s flaws.
They say the streets here are paved with self-righteous good intentions, and the buildings gleam with moral superiority. While architecture is as perfect anything on Lunia, there’s an undeniable air of stagnation that hangs over the burg. Each soul there is so certain they’ve led a righteous life and have nothing to confess. But therein lies the conundrum, for without confession, there can be no purification.
Petitioners in the City of Innocents find themselves in a cycle of righteous denial, caught between their own stubbornness and the need to progress on their celestial journey. The light of Lunia is all around them, yet they remain untouched by its transformative embrace. The implications are clear—to advance, they must come to terms with the fact that even the most innocent soul can still learn and grow. The journey to perfection involves acknowledging imperfection, but that’s a concept that’s hard to grasp when you’ve spent your whole life thinking you’re the bee’s knees… because you are!
The locals of the City of Innocents are a curious bunch, often lost in debates and discussions about the nature of sin and purity. Philosophical ponderings echo through the streets like celestial music, each voice hoping to find a way to break the cycle that’s trapped them in this pristine paradox.
It’s a place of introspection and, for some, frustration. Yet, it’s also a reminder that even the most virtuous must learn and change. In the hearts of the cutters of this burg, the struggle for understanding oneself is a battle as significant as any celestial war.
