Empty Heaven
There is a Heaven that has never Manifested in the Kirinal Pit. Only a very few have reported visiting it and those who have tell of an immense sadness. A loneliness that did not wish them to leave.
You can feel the absence of the gods who once dwelled here. You can hear the whispers of the souls they once protected. Their temples crumble and the choir halls stand empty. All symbols have been removed. The holy books and hymnals are blank but well worn. We don't know their names, or what happened here. But I get the feeling that it wasn't all bad.
The only way to reach the Empty Heaven is to walk to the end of the Clockwork Road. As a result, most visitors have been Soulforged or other Mechani-kin. Scholars who have journeyed here seek to solve the mystery of the missing gods and departed souls. But so far, that ancient heaven has held on to its secrets.
No evidence remains of the worlds they once served or the people that they once provided hope for. Only the faint chorus of forgotten angels and the scent of faded orchards lingers. Even the sky flickers and fades, as if the entire plane is on the verge of shutting down.
What a mysterious place.
