The Imperial Senate of the Brilliant Empire was situated to the south of Central Plaza in the northern part of Dragon City.
On the other side of the Central Plaza, the statue of the founding emperor of the Brilliant Empire, Emperor Gana St. Lorenzo, stood tall.
The statue, towering over twenty meters high, was carved from red sandstone. A glance at it, one could easily picture a fierce flame blazing on.
This statue of the legendary Holy Knight facing the imposing Senate felt like they were eternal comrades at arms who understood each other tacitly, yet also like adversaries intertwined by destiny.
At the inception of the Brilliant Empire, the founding emperor made an agreement with the first Pope — matters of the secular world were meant for the nobles, while those of faith belonged to the Deity.
Thus, though the church had control over the spiritual world of the entire human empire, it held no secular authority.
