Lighthouse of Apollo

Post by Jonas »

Behold, people of Apollo City! For ages, ships have sank, just because they had no guide to the shore of Kildare and Sermolot. Now, we have almost finished with the construction of the Lighthouse of Apollo.

Not only its size is important (120 and 145 meter), but mostly the architecture is of importance. Built in an old style, to satisfy the Gods and impress the immigrants who arrive.
When it's sunny, the sun light reflects on the golden sun symbol (symbol of Sermolot). At night, a fire burns to escort the ships to the Apollo City dock. With special herbs, delivered by the Soloralist temples, the fire can't go out. Even without any wood, the fire stays burning.
From a distance I'm concerned about the rampant lawyerism manifesting itself in Shireroth currently. A simple Kaiserial slap on the wrist or censure by the community should suffice. - Jacobus Loki

Beautiful!
The character Andreas the Wise is on indefinite leave.
However, this account still manages:
Cla'Udi - Count of Melangia
Manuel - CEO of VBNC. For all you'll ever need.
Vincent Waldgrave - Lord General of Gralus
Q - Director of SAMIN
Duke Mel'Kat - Air Pirate, Melangian, and Duke of the Flying Duchy of Glanurchy

And references may be made to Vur'Alm Xei'Bôn (a Nelagan Micron of undisclosed purpose).

Ahhh, excellent!

...Incidentally, who's the person who appears to be holding the sun symbol?

Max sails to Audentior at night. Suddenly he sees an enormous beam of light and he decides to follows it. Suddenly he sees what causes the beam of light: it is the lighthouse of Audentior. Impressed by it's size and architecture, Max decides to take a look inside. He finds that noone is there and that there is a huge amount of dust on the flours. He wipes it off and then suddenly finds a bed. Next thing he knows is that he is falling asleep...

It's early in the morning when a guard of the Senechal starts it round through the harbour district of the city. Surprised of the open door at the Lighthouse, he decides to enter. The room is dark, but luckily he sees just enough. He laughs when seeing Max on the bed, and shouts: "This isn't a hotel, pal". Max awakes and looks with sleepy eyes to the guard.
"I will bring you to my home, my wife makes delicious pancakes," says the guard to Max.

"Grmbl..." Max said, waking up. "I'm sorry, I was really tired of sailing all the way here in this amazing storm I was in." The guard brought Max to his house where the guard's wife was just making pancakes for breakfast. Max joined in and had to tell his whole tale: how he lived in Batavia for all those years and how he was trying to seek for a third home. The guard and his wife listened carefully to everything he had to say, especially when it came down to some Windsor guy that lives in Davignon like Max. "He sounds familiar," the guard said. "Anyway, I know just the place where you can live for the time coming. There is this large house where the count used to go in the weekends. It is totally empty since he left Audentior."

By the way, is the Senachal the same in Shireroth as it was in Maraguo (army chief)?
