Chapter 43: Granfels Challenge

As they crossed the threshold into the grand meeting hall, the first thing that struck them was the sheer magnificence of the room. An expansive dome, painted with a dazzling mosaic of cosmic imagery, loomed over the space. At its center, a grand chandelier crafted to resemble a spinning galaxy cast a soft, ethereal glow over the assembly.

A semicircle of plush seats arced around a central podium, each section marked with the insignia of an order. To the left, an ambassador from the Starshield Hall sat rigidly in a seat emblazoned with the image of a star enclosed within a shield. Their austere demeanor spoke volumes of the importance they placed on this meeting. Further along the arc, the representatives of Pulsar Spire and Nebula Enclave conversed in hushed whispers, their seats marked by a spiraling pulsar and a swirling nebula respectively.
