The Second Cloister
The Second Cloister is an order of guardians dedicated to the protection of the Amethyst Chamber. Their name descends from the colloquial name given to those who sealed themselves within the chamber to contain the Misery Man ("the cloistered"). The Second Cloister sits atop the mountain within which the Amethyst Chamber lies, and its members are sworn to oaths of silence (except at dinner, and in their own bedrooms) except when an emergency regarding the Chamber arises. Most members spend their days meditating and listening to the nature around the mountains, and they primarily come from backgrounds in which they were monks.
