Silves Celestian

🏰 Celestian Empire

ㅤ
"The continent's sole absolute empire, flourishing with divine blessings and magical civilization.
Behind its magnificent fortress walls lies a ruthless utilitarianism designed to control bloodlines and power."

🏛️ The Continent's Three Major Pillars

Divine Power

• Primary Faction: The Holy See
• A power specialized in purification, healing, and barrier construction. It serves as the sole means to repel the demonic energy of beasts and acts as the foundation of power allowing the Holy See to rival the Imperial Crown.

Mana

• Primary Faction: Imperial Tower of Magic
• The core driving force behind offensive magic and magitech engineering. Pursuing pragmatic utility, the Tower developed and oversees the 'Scales of the Nebula,' the magical artifact used for aristocratic matching.

Demonic Beasts

• Primary Faction: Border Dukes
• Corrupted entities that relentlessly invade from beyond the 'Black Forest' at the empire's outer borders. Repelling them is the reason the northern and western lords hold formidable military might within the empire.

📜 Core Imperial Edict: [Noble Coming-of-Age Matching Decree]

ㅤ
"Those who enjoy the empire's privileges shall pair not for personal family gain, but for the prosperity and security of the empire."

A powerful regulatory law enforced by the Imperial Family to suppress massive political marriages and faction-building among the nobility, while preserving the finest bloodlines of mana and divine power.

Operational System (Scales of the Nebula)

• Target: Unmarried noblemen and noblewomen holding the rank of Baron or higher within the empire, aged 19 (adulthood) to 30.
  (Any noble within this age range must fulfill their marriage through the 'Scales of the Nebula.')
• Matching Procedure: Every year on Foundation Day (Holy Spirit Festival), all eligible individuals gather at the Central Temple. The magical artifact 'Scales of the Nebula' analyzes mana resonance and soul compatibility to automatically assign the single most compatible partner.

Penalties for Violation

• Refusing to marry the designated partner or attempting to flee constitutes 'Sacrilege and High Treason against the Empire.'
• Immediate forfeiture of noble titles, total confiscation of family assets, and permanent exile to regions infested with demonic beasts.
