The Sulphur Sage
The Sulphur Sage is an ancient being that plays a crucial role in the history and fate of the Stella Vespera Sanctuary. As one of the children who remained in the material plane when the Stella Vespera Temple was banished to the Astral Plane, the Sulphur Sage has existed for thousands of years, patiently awaiting their final task. This task revolves around guiding prophesised, newest iteration of Zolikz.
The sanctuary, hidden deep below Calidas Island, serves as the dwelling place of the Sulphur Sage. In this spirit-like form, the Sage possesses the bodies of the monks residing in the sanctuary, using them as a conduit to glimpse cryptic futures and prophecies. This power makes the Sulphur Sage an invaluable guide for Zolikz on their heroic journey.
The origins of the Sulphur Sage trace back to a significant event during the Era of War when a calamity threatened the followers of the Stella Vespera Temple. In an accord between Laststar and Zolikz, the force endangering the worshippers was sealed away. To ensure the potency and longevity of the seal as series of conditions were imposed, two of the conditions that were set relating to the Sulphur Sage included: the banishment of the Stella Vespera Temple to the Astral Plane and the indefinite return of all adult worshippers to their home plane, Inferno.
Originally, the Stella Vespera Temple served as a link between the people of Inferno and their patron deity, Stella Vespera, in the Material Plane. However, after the banishment the purpose of the sanctuary shifted to protecting and maintaining the Threefold Seal while guiding the destined hero, Zolikz.
Upon fulfilling their final task of guiding Zolikz, the Sulphur Sage was able to move on to the afterlife, completing a timeless cycle of destiny and purpose. Despite its spirit-like existence, the Sulphur Sage played a crucial role in preserving the legacy of the Stella Vespera Temple and safeguarding the future of its worshippers.
