The quiet suburb of Sacreid had unobtrusively begun a martial lockdown.
Atop a peak of the Seven God Pillars.
The headquarters of the God of Knowledge, the Cathedral of Wisdom.
This was an astronomical observatory primarily constructed from marble, equipped with the Empire's most advanced telescope and astrological instruments.
A barefoot, hairless ascetic, simply dressed, slowly ascended to the top of the observatory.
Around him, one after another high-ranking members of the church appeared.
The aura each of them carried was chill and terrifying, their eyes sparkling with the glow of wisdom.
"Following the prior resolution."
"The Pope is restrained, the Emperor has initiated the God Making Ceremony, all conditions are satisfied... Hence, I have, in accordance with emergency plan A-23, taken over the highest authority of the 'Wisdom Cathedral'."
