An abbey on Sharsenne, known for its excellent cider. Where Laniis Baker, Na'er, Lisinthir Nase Galare, Sediryl Nuera Galare, and Amber Seni Galare met.
History
The Abbey was established in 162 BA, about three years after the world was opened to Pelted/human visitors and settlers by the Chatcaava.
At the time of the Chatcaavan War, the Abbey was around 318 years old, and was on its 22nd Jasmine. (All the abbesses are named Jasmine.) [1] The abbey's mission is to enable the safe flight of refugees from injustice, a mission that resulted in a high attrition rate for missionaries.
Appearance
A stone building with a steeple surrounded by many smaller buildings and overrun with children, adults, geese and chickens and things more alien than either but occupying the same niche. Rough-hewn stones, farm animals, the world shut out--"beneath the bustle there was a serenity, the way a noisy stream could still tranquilize the person drowsing alongside it in the sun." [2]
It's tucked into the lee of a wood, and "had a structure that could have come from his homeworld’s earliest architecture, with a dome of solid stone supported by thick walls and flat buttresses." Has catacombs. [3]
There is one computer in the entire abbey, embedded in the abbot’s room upstairs. [4]
Acolytes
The brethren of the abbey wear plain brown robes with cowls.
Food
- amazing cider
