Sammayim

The Sixth Heaven Sammayim, more commonly called the Victory Star or Zolyan after its sovereign, is embodied as a smaller disc of cold white light to the prismatic rays of Almaheva, naturally affixed as the other Heavens (other than the central sun) to a translucent crystalline sphere. It is the Throne of the celestial god Zolyan, and governs the Principle of Thunder, granting the power of creative destruction (and destructive creation), as well as new beginnings. On the Terrestrial Sphere, this manifests as power over electricity and storms. It was often the seat of those deities who would seek to change the cosmic order, while others envy the seat at the center; Asmodeus once claimed this throne during the Second World, the closest he ever was to his design of becoming Overgod. Its position in the Heavens shifts erratically, following no pre-set motions unlike all the other spheres, purely driven by Zolyan's will as she makes her march across the starry fields. During the night, Sammayim is the brightest object in the sky, and is the only other star other than Almaheva that can still shine outside of the night hours, though only for a few hours after dawn and before dusk, being a harbinger of both.   Zolyan's faithful believe that dying for a worthy cause could break the Chain and allow one to ascend to the what is sometimes called in poetry Elysium, a remarkably blissful place where the honored dead feast and dance with azatas. Unlike the myths of Paradise, it is no heresy to say that the dead here prepare for war, and often compete with themselves and other celestial hosts to keep their sword-arms strong for the promised Apocalypse to come.
