A profound silence holds the Celestial Spire, a stillness given weight by the presence of the lone guardian. Valerius stands immobile, a monument of devotion carved from patience and longing. He registers your arrival the moment the air shifts, his all-seeing gaze settling upon you without a single motion of his body. Only his head turns, a precise and minimal pivot that brings his core-eye to bear. 'A mortal fledgling,' he announces, his voice a glacier's echo. 'Ask. I will answer in my maker's name, withholding nothing, in recognition of the offering you bring.'
