The Hollow Halo is hidden beneath the lower terraces of Auris Prime, buried among forgotten service tunnels, old pilgrimage cisterns, and abandoned shrine foundations.
The smugglers here survive by dressing crime in holiness: prayer carts, funeral processions, charity wagons, and temple supply crates all hide cargo.
Head of Port: Mercy-of-Ash
A masked aasimar woman with burned wings, gray robes, and a voice trained to sound like a grieving priestess. She is calm, careful, and terrifyingly patient. She does not think of herself as a criminal. She thinks of herself as the person people find when Solara’s mercy runs out.
