Church of Eternal Night

Leitho, a grand city on the eastern cliffs of Aerdis, is home to the largest cathedral devoted to Asuliad: the Church of Eternal Night. This magnificent, towering structure borders on being a castle, complete with gargoyles and vampiric artworks. The church also shares land with the largest graveyard and mausoleum in Elzveir, where individuals from all Aen have chosen to be buried that they might be as close to Asuliad’s grandest place of worship as possible.

Leitho considers itself a theocracy, with the Night Priest being the ruling power in the city. However, Aerdan royalty does not recognize this and has a duke instated within the coastal city. This leads to constant conflicts and power struggles, particularly given that most who live in the city walls prefer to recognize the theocracy rather than the monarchy. The Church of Eternal Night also faces the challenge that Asuliad is largely an absent god, and so any guidance the Night Priest claims to have received is more than likely false.
