Seylith spoke.
The vassal goddess of Life and Tide — Seylith, the Pale Coast's patron, the Bloomist divine — communicated through the architecture for the first time in eight years. Not through her priesthood, not through her First Tide, not through the diplomatic intermediaries that normally handled inter-divine relations within the Covenant. She communicated directly. God to god. A message transmitted through the Eternal Anvil's internal structure with the particular resonance of divine will that couldn't be ignored, delegated, or delayed.

[PRIORITY: FORMAL COMPLAINT — COVENANT CLAUSE 7 — RELIGIOUS AUTONOMY]
I am addressing you because my priesthood's communications to the Crucible have been acknowledged but not answered for eleven months. I am addressing you directly because the institutional channels designed to resolve inter-faith disputes within the Covenant have failed.
