THE HOLY STAR SYMBOL:

 There is ever only one to exist throughout a lifetime. A holy star symbol is considerably the most powerful entity to exist on the planet. They exist as proof that the god of scriptures remains thriving and superior in the realm of the gods.

 A female holy star symbol is known as the Temple of Wisdom’s Priestess, while a male one is known as the temple’s priest.

A holy star symbol is gifted with the divine and physical attributes of the sun. [More on this will be stated in future updates.]

They are the most authoritative figures in the Temple of Wisdom and one of the most revered figures in the world.

[A holy star symbol’s purpose and responsibilities will be revealed as the plot unfolds.]

THE HOLY WARRIORS:

These are people who only answer to the holy star symbol. They are bound by heart and service to protect the holy star symbol.

A human who has become a holy warrior has been Star-Touched towards an element. [the specifics are best explained in the story.]

THE TWELVE PILLARS OF THE TEMPLE:

These are the twelve elders of the temple. They are powerful figures whose authority falls beneath that of the holy star symbol. Every action of theirs is by virtue to be done with the sole intention of promoting the excellence of the temple.

Their primary purpose is to aid the holy star symbol in the tribulations they face while spreading the teachings of the scripture god.

Every Pillar of the Temple of Wisdom possesses the power of premonition. They also possess the ability to unveil incidences of the past that took place in a particular location. This, in particular, vary among them:

The 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Pillars are known as Light Speakers, as they can see into the past wherever light has touched.

The 4th, 5th, and 6th Pillars are known as Sky Speakers;

The 7th, 8th, and 9th Pillars are known as Ocean Speakers; and

The 10th, 11th, and 12th Pillars are known as Earth Speakers.

Due to the varied methods, the first three are the most effective seers, thus inevitably creating sub-classes between them.

THE KEEPERS OF THE TEMPLE:

These are much younger versions of the temple pillars. They are gifted seers that are brought to the temple to be trained under the guidance of the pillars. They are divided based on their vision methods. Thus we have;

The Light Keepers,

The Sky Keepers,

The Ocean Keepers, and

The Earth Speakers.

THE MILITARY SCHOOL OF STELL CITY:

The school is responsible for producing top-tier military men and women, some of whom would go on to fight for a chance to participate in the Star-Trail Accordance Trial.

They also produce highly skilled military officers who protect and uphold the territory of the temple from those who challenge its status.

THE HIGHER SERVANTS OF THE TEMPLE: This includes numerous departments like;

The Temple preacher union,

The Medical department,

The office department,

The investigative department.
