Architecture

The most famous building in St. Sophia's Covenant is the Great Hall of Copernicus. High open archways overlook the cold seas below, and on many days a thin wind makes haunting and melancholy music over the fluted columns. The Great Hall of Copernicus was once the venue for a renowned meeting between the rulers of the moon and the Grey Kings of Anoomenon.
