Your Voice, It Chased Away All The Sanity In Me
A portion
of the broken spires of Debello Sabbatum's outer walls. Contrary to belief,
Debello Sabbatum is not just a castle or a city housed within walls, but in fact
the remnants of the capital of a once famed kingdom called Delencia.
Its unique location, buried within the mountains at the crossroads of many trade
routes, has lead to an influence of dozens of different cultures at different
stages in their history within its architecture.
This is the Solitaire bridge, named
after its traditional role to be a place of solitude to reflect upon
oneself. The building in the background is house to N'Kari's slaves, if they are
so gifted as to be allowed entrance to the city. The bridge has not found much
company as of late, for the master finds it hard to reflect on such troubled
times
Cathedral
of St. Velan, which lies in the heart of the city. Named after the first saint
of the city, said to guard Debello Sabbatum from evil spirits. N'Kari met
St.Valen shortly after he had entered Delencia and decided to claim the kingdom
as his own. It was a paradox, that St.Valen would be both the first victim of
Delencia and also the man that N'Kari revered and built this cathedral in honor
of.
The second gate into Sabbatum,
this scene depicts both the solitude and the environment that is most common
during N'Kari's reign. In the early 15oo's N'Kari first passed this gate which
lie behind the city's two, twenty-three foot tall oak and iron banded doors. At
that time they were nameless, but they have since come to be known as the
Weeper's Gate. This gate has later been revealed to be the focal point of the
city. In deciding Delencia should be his own, N'Kari killed tens if not hundreds
of thousands Delencians that lived within the city walls, stacking their bodies
at the gate so that none could escape. Men, women, children. It didn't matter,
for this was the time of bloodlust and conquering. St'Valen himself hung from
this gate. It is from this time on that the city kingdom has been slowly dying,
and only the remaining residences' fear of N'Kari and The Order keep them within
the city. Weepers Gate is truely a sign of both N'Kari's power and the cruel
nature that hides beneath that pale and emotionless surface.
From N'Kari's palace leads this path
out to his garden... 
Maintained by the miniscule peasantry left within the city once again, after
Lysandra's private garden pulled away Syn from tending to it. The workers are mostly an
unseen sort and manage to keep out of the lord's way, and for good reason. The
last time within the garden, N'Kari had been driven insane from grief at the
Weeper's gate, fleeing from Lysandra and Syn. Though it was common enough for
the residence to see this, these two were yet unaware at the connection between
these city walls and N'Kari. Lysandra would find N'Kari later that night, after
the sky had rained blood, after the spirits of dead Delencia had called out the
names of the girls. They found him here, in the garden, and his deeds were
further revealed. It was on this path to seeking the mad lord that they would
first run into Mishlan
