Last Bastion

Last Bastion is the home of The Pantheon of Stars, and the plane of Light. It is here that Alnora resides, as well as the other gods and goddesses. Last Bastion also serves as a base of operations for The Valarien, as well as an afterlife for mortals in The Fields of Ascension.

Regions
Last Bastion is believed to be separated into at least 4 different regions, each serving a unique purpose in the plane's function.

The Palace of Stars
The Palace of Stars is the structure in which the Pantheon resides. A massive and luxurious floating castle, it is believed the walls and floors are constructed of pure light, and naturally glows like the sun. All of the Gods have their own wing of the palace, and it is believed that each god's high priests live their afterlives in these wings as servants to the gods.

The Court of Valor
The Court of Valor is the base of operations for The Valarien, a group of warrior-angels which defend Last Bastion from external threats. Once led by the despicable Illdaeron, the Valarien are now instead led by Bjorna The Aegisir. The Valarien are comprised of souls who were once great warriors, paladins, and priests, who have been given the opportunity to keep fighting even in their afterlife.

The Court of Valor is described in many holy texts as a monastery sat upon an endless mountain range reaching above the clouds, where angelic gryphons are used to travel from tower to tower. It is also home to numerous gardens hosting life from countless mortal worlds.

The Fields of Ascension
The Fields are the afterlife in Last Bastion, a place where deceased mortals live on in luxury and bliss. The Fields are an endless landscape of green hills and peaceful forests in every direction, with a massive tower known as The Last Citadel in the center. The Last Citadel is a prison used to contain both external threats and evil souls, and is maintained by the souls of those they wronged, given their chance at revenge through their punishment.

The Soul-Nexus
The Soul-Nexus runs between the other three regions, and is a massive "river" of souls which ends in a junction known as The Orfrost. The Orfrost is a junction maintained by The Keepers, a race of automatons who judge souls that pass into The Orfrost and distribute them into the area which they most belong. The Soul-Nexus is often interrupted, however, as Illdaeron, Centuras, and Jocund commonly intervene, cherry-picking souls and taking them to their own planes, at Alnora's behest.
