Batuur

The Fifth Heaven Batuur, also known as the Blue Planet, Dantalion, or poetically as the Silent Sphere, is the outermost of the two planets which appears as a sphere wrapped in a thick gaseous atmosphere, essentially a gas giant. Batuur is marked by its almost perfectly cerulean hue, as well as the golden rings of ice and rock that have formed around it, perpendicular to the crystalline firmament it is affixed to. Due to the space warping nature of the Starry Mantle, it is about equivalent in size to the Terrestrial Sphere despite being "inside" it. It is the Throne of the celestial god Dantalion, and governs the Principle of Stasis. Thus it creates the rules of inertia and conservation of energy, as well as the underlying Principle that girds principles of magnetism and attraction. Like all gods who rule from within the Empyreal fields, those who claim the Blue Planet become distant from mortal affairs, yet Dantalion is distinguished by his desire to bridge the two and once again reclaim the mantle of Star Emperor. Sarnath is the "ecumenopolis" being built on its rings by his servitors, originally from his flagship Tencendur, a vast edifice that is completely bereft of all but the smallest hints of life, a perfect encapsulation of the Eternal Sovereign's vision. With what few astraliners the Commonwealth has left they attempt to build a logistics chain across the Heavens, though their tunneling through the Firmament not only has enraged some of the celestials who live there, but has brought in aberrations into the stars as well.
Beneath the opaque atmosphere is what Central Dogma calls Nirvana, which is a mechanical orrery that is the Firmament in miniature that is also the destination of souls who reach enlightenment under the Dogma and break the Chain. Each soul becomes part of the greater machine, fulfilling their ordained role from here unto eternity.
