Fons Lucis

– Whispers of Divine Light

In the distant reaches of space, long after Earth’s history has faded into obscurity, humanity has wandered far, seeking sanctuary on distant worlds. Yet even among the stars, the Light remains a beacon for the lost. This sacred solar system, the Fons Lucis, is a revered domain in the vast cosmos—a place where the faithful believe God’s will is woven into the orbits of planets. Here, we witness the divine mysteries, a reflection of the faith carried by those of us sent to spread the gospel across the galaxy.

This text explores each heavenly body in the Fons Lucis, illuminating the symbolism and sanctity bestowed upon each by the Holy Order. As pilgrims, we find in these orbits a map for our own salvation.

Description of Each Planet and Sun

The Radiant

At the system’s heart burns the Radiant, a colossal sun that reflects God’s boundless mercy. Its light pierces the dark void, representing the unwavering truth of faith that reaches even the farthest soul. Priests regard this star as a living testament to divine guidance, its warmth a gift, its gravity the force that binds all in unity. This sun shines with both gentleness and power, holding the system in harmonious reverence.

Auris

The innermost planet, Auris, is believed to be closest to the Radiant Sun’s spiritual influence. A barren, metallic world, it echoes with celestial hymns as the winds blow through its deep canyons. It is a place of contemplation and silent prayer, reserved for the most devout. Only pilgrims in silent retreat visit here, seeking inner clarity through solitude and fasting.

Veridion

Veridion, wrapped in lush green haze, is a symbol of faith’s resilience. Though surrounded by harsh conditions, its atmosphere sustains fragile life, a testament to growth and renewal. It is a world beloved by missionaries who come here to cultivate flora that can thrive in barren lands. Veridion’s forests are rumored to hold plants with healing properties, blessed by the light of the Radiant Sun.

Mekados

Known as the “Warrior’s Sphere,” Mekados is a desolate planet covered in harsh deserts and treacherous mountains. It is a place where priests and warriors alike test their faith and strength. Pilgrims face Mekados as a penance, enduring its storms to overcome their earthly fears and purify their souls.

Xeta

Xeta is a world of mystery and conflict. This planet, cloaked in shadows, is home to civilizations that revere dark and unknown deities. Missionaries find Xeta to be a battleground for the spirit, a place where faith is contested daily. The Holy Order has long sent its faithful here, attempting to guide Xeta’s inhabitants back to the Light, though their path is strewn with peril.

Calos

Calos is a planet of balance and moderation, orbiting at a stable distance from the Radiant Sun. Its surface is tranquil, with vast oceans and gentle winds. Calos is where scholars and theologians reflect on the harmony of creation, contemplating the mysteries of divine balance and the duality of light and shadow.

Sinder

A world consumed by volcanic activity, Sinder is a reminder of the fiery trials of faith. Its surface is a smoldering landscape of lava and ash, and pilgrims brave its heat to demonstrate their devotion. Sinder symbolizes purification and the inner struggle each soul must endure to rise above earthly temptations.

Velis

Velis lies on the system’s outskirts, its cold, icy surface reflecting the Radiant Sun’s distant glow. It is a symbol of patience and endurance, where those faithful to the Holy Order venture in solitude to find peace in God’s quiet. Velis teaches that even in the farthest reaches of darkness, the Light’s presence can still be felt.
