Outlander (Borealis)
“Galen was at his heels while Marcus and I trailed close behind.
His palm pressed against the small of my back, Marcus was tense and that worried me. And then there was Galen, rattled and irate. God was going to show us how he created, was that really so awful?
We ended up in a hallway leading to three identical, non-descript doors. Boreas opened the right one and I was instantly hit with a moist wind, thick with the tang of ozone.
The round Creation Chamber was cocoon-like and filled with mist,... making it difficult to see. Even through the haze, it was hard to miss the sea of vibrant blue ceilings and floors, tiled in lapis lazuli stone, stunning and majestic. Water leaked from mother-of-pearl walls and disappeared through a channel between the walls and the floors, keeping the floors dry.
In the center of the chamber was a hollow, transparent glass column connected to the ceiling and the floor. I guessed the circumference of the column to be about three feet. With two chairs and a sofa facing the cylinder, it was clear this was center stage.MoreLess
