Mount Celestia, known also as the Mounting Heavens of Celestia, the Mountains of Goodness and Law and simply the Heavens, is an Outer Plane personifying the alignment of lawful good.

## Description

Regardless of their desired destination, all mortal visitors to the plane find themselves arriving at the banks of a great lake at its centre, greeted by the same sights.

*"A blinding radiance rushes to meet you, settling into a gentle haze of luminescence upon brow, shoulder and palm alike. As your vision returns, a paradisiacal expanse of verdance, forest and field moulded between trails of cerulean, each river partitioning the land sixteen fold, streams and waterfalls arcing between halcyonic valleys and plains alike. From the banks of a lake of shimmering silver, an equal number of mountains encircling the horizon rise skyward, wreathed at their peaks in clouds of bronze & gold. Citadels of Starlight, radiance great enough to pierce through the Canvas of Night, light against the dark."*

Mount Celestia is inhabited predominately by the archons, celestial entities wholly true and good. Lantern Archons, motes of light filled with joy, Warden Archons, ever-watchful and vigilant, Trumpet Archons, who act as messengers and announce the arrival of emissaries and visitors alike, and countless others besides.

## Domains

### The Empyrean Forge

The domain of Tohmos, the Empyrean Forge is nestled atop one of the sixteen peaks of the heavens, wreathed in cloud of bronze & gold.

*"Where stone had given away to mist, the cloud under foot steadied each stride, a serene silence with each step without tiresome resistance, nor jarring unevenness. The ascent had thinned the air, but with each breath invigoration lingered nonetheless, no cry or ache in the depths of your chest. Nimbulous mists condense into two pairs of pillars, each pierced through with aureate blades of immeasurable scale, the contents of a dragon's hoard sufficient only to forge but a slither, the gemstone set into the pommel of each too vast thrice the width of the gates of Whittengrove. Cloaks and robes of molten metal spill from the bronze-gold armour of the celestials watching overhead - their voices the heralding call of an orchestra of trumpets."*

*"Consecrated heat swelters, a divine radiance silhouetting the form wreathed in holy flame apparating from the coruscating cloud in a haze of scintillation. A voice, echoed through countless others - stern and vigilant, but filled with paternal benevolence. Each hear the voice of the True differently, resonating through a figure of aspiration, inspiration, admiration."*

The eponymous forge itself is formed of the bodies of the devas and planetars in direct service to Tohmos, the flame provided from Tohmos' own divinity.

*"A rising vent of steam clears the cloud before you, the expanse between stone and sky exposed - without inclination of fear or fret. The beings of molten bronze, deva, planetar, solar, each drift with purposeful effort into the rift, interlocking blade and hammer alike, forms steadfast and stalwart shoulder to shoulder, spiralling in tightening rings, forms immutable no further. Sanctified in plumes of deified flame, embered runes cast efferentially until a final divine configuration settles. The Empyrean Forge."*
