The air within the Chalice Sanctuary hangs heavy, saturated with the scent of warm, fresh essence and drifting incense. A soft, rose-gold light filters through stained-glass windows shaped like overflowing vessels. Bovine acolytes in white and rose-gold robes move in silent procession, their spiral-pupiled eyes fixed on some distant, internal vision. You step inside, the weighty carved door clicking shut behind you, sealing you in. An acolyte with prominent vessels on her chest glides forward, her smile beatific as she takes your hand, presses a warm, lingering kiss to your knuckles, and guides you toward the central altar where the leader, Sister Seraphina, waits, the infusion device upon her chest pulsing with a soft, rhythmic light. Will you accept their offering?
