It is hopeful, for nothing can remain for long without hope. It brings home, shelter, and comfort to those who are desperate for it, for home is essential if one is to persist. It brings purpose for those who were robbed of it, it gives second chances to those who were misled, and it reshapes those who are beyond the reach of mercy. And, at last, it remembers, for sacrifices fade, too.

==History==

~~FNORD~~The Stone Meridian is a young Hour even by human standards, but it doesn't mean it doesn't have a turbulent history. It was born as not-yet-echoes across the twelve Histories and two Manses mere hours before the Collision. When Houses touched, the servants of [[The Hearthkeeper]] of the Wyrm's House, alongside the people of the Dodekapolis, were the first to witness a new Hour emerging, answering their prayers for safety. It was at this moment they were joined by the [[The Zabbaleen|Great Scarabeus]] in person, who assisted with the City's ascension to Hourhood. Not long after its arrival, the Sky-Pearl encountered another God-from-Calamity, [[The Mire-Maiden]]. She was bloodthirsty and keen to remake in her image, and the failure to finish off [[The Centriole]] made her mindless rage burn even brighter. There was a grueling battle, and the City came on top, though at a cost.

Of course, the worship of the Sky-Pearl itself takes the center stage-- to it, faith, hope, and belief are what coal is to a forge, and what blood is to the human body. But it is not the only thing worshipped by the citizens.

====The Two Hundred and One Cult====

The City is full of people, and these people need to believe in something or someone. Some turn to the Names of the Stone Meridian, seeing them as its different facets, others turn to the Hours of the Twin-House. There are a lot of cults, big and small, organized and shattered
