In the dim twilight of a 15th‑century Strasbourg monastery, a humble monk deep in prayer is jolted by a fierce wind and a sudden, otherworldly presence. A breathtaking woman in a star‑studded blue robe appears, wings glittering with countless eyes, a golden trumpet in one hand and a bundle of letters in the other. She touches the monk’s back, leaves a single sealed missive on his table, and vanishes in a resonant blast that seems to shake the very mountain around him.
The letter, sealed with a delicate cross and written in shimmering gold, delivers a cryptic invitation: a royal wedding to be witnessed at a mountain bearing three temples, but only for those pure enough to endure it. The monk, trembling with awe and fear, confronts his own doubts about worthiness and the hidden mysteries of the world. This moment sets him on a peril‑filled path of self‑examination and spiritual quest, where every step may reveal deeper alchemical secrets.
