Chapter 163.2 - Sanctum

Irina's question lingered in the air, her hazel eyes studying the guide intently. For a moment, the guide's smile faltered, as though she were weighing her response, but then she recovered with practiced ease. 

"Well," the guide began, her tone steady and measured, "it is said that the Solarians came from another world through the cracks in space in the time of the Nexus of Convergence. In their original world, their religion was the primary faith of the Holy Church—a vast and powerful institution." 

Irina blinked, her curiosity piqued. "Another world? So they're… not from here originally?" 

The guide nodded. "That's correct. According to the fragments of records we've pieced together, the Solarians believe they were guided to this world by their deity, the sun. For them, the cracks in the space at the time of The Nexus of Convergence are thought to be some form of divine or mystical gateway, but the specifics are shrouded in mystery."
