It is a circular hall as sacred and splendid as a grand cathedral.
Upon entering, the first thing Aiwass saw was this scene—
The wooden floor was crimson, while the ceiling was dark red.
It appeared as though one was inside the heart of some enormous magical beast.
Thousands of white candles of varying heights burned within the room, filling it with a faint, sacred-scented incense.
The statues of the Nine Pillar Gods were arranged in a fan-shaped sequence, each set into its own square niche.
They looked like huge paintings, except these paintings were recessed into the walls, and the holy images of the Nine Pillar Gods inside maintained various poses within differently colored frames.
...
In each “frame,” different offerings were placed at both corners.
Mostly different flowers, gemstones, and colored candles, arranged in varying quantities.@@@@
From left to right, the Nine Pillar Gods were arranged in a sacred sequence.
As is well known, the Nine Pillar Gods have different incarnations, but the Holy Nation has its unique definition of the “official image” of the Nine Pillar Gods.
Although other nations’ churches might also have religious paintings, they do not have complete statues, nor are they allowed to draw in any form without permission—this is the “permit authority” and “speaking rights” controlled by the Holy Nation.
Only in the holy temples that especially worship one specific Pillar God are the holy statues enshrined.
Normally, only here could one see the highest level of sacred images of all Nine Pillar Gods at the same time.
—To the most left, the Eternal Self looked like a plump young girl.
She knelt on the ground, facing the lake, with her arms crossed on her chest or shoulders.
She was almost entirely unclad, only nearly transparent black crystals shaped like tentacles tightly bound her from behind and covered the crucial parts.
She had very long straight black hair, and because she was bowing her head, her face was not clear.
Candle Master was a large red crystal deer with antlers branching upon more branches.
And on each antler burned a white candle—there was nothing different about that.
Great Sage was an elderly man with a stooped figure.
He wore a hooded robe, his eye sockets deeply sunken, with one eye pure white and the other deep blue but profoundly deep, like a bottomless ice lake.
His mouth was dry and shriveled like that of an old man, as if sewn shut with black thread.
His right hand hung low as if hiding something in the sleeve.
Meanwhile, his left hand was elevated high, holding a stone tablet with ancient text dancing like electric light upon it.
From his raised left arm, muscles hidden under the robe were visible.
The Hourglass, too, was an old man, but appeared much more spirited.
Dressed in a yellow robe, with white beard and hair, his slightly long and thin elderly face appeared extremely stern.
Behind him was a large hourglass with sand continuously flowing, and his hands were tucked in front of him within the sleeves.
The sixth, Lord of Scalefeather, revealed a different appearance from what Aiwass knew.
His entire figure was hidden in shadows, with only the swaying green feathers and deep blue scales faintly visible.
His appearance seemed to constantly change, green at one moment, and blue the next.
But due to the thick shadows, only a tiny portion of features were visible outside.
Silver-Crowned Dragon, was a White Dragon lying asleep on an icy mountain.
Atop its head was a majestic and sacred silver crown, and its wings were a brilliant silver-grey.
The chilling aura visible to the naked eye was like dry ice melting at room temperature, continuously flowing out of that niche…
