Central Cathedral

The Central Cathedral (セントラル・カセドラル), officially known as the Axiom Church Central Cathedral (公理教会セントラル・カセドラル) is the gigantic white tower at the center of the Human World where the Administrator of the world resides.

Description
The Central Cathedral is a huge, 100-storey square white tower, with mirror-like marble walls, that towers at the center of the Human World, within a vast square plot on a hill at the center of Centoria. Despite the fact that it can be seen from everywhere in the Human World, no one can see its top because the upper portion of the cathedral is always covered by clouds. The cathedral's square grounds are surrounded by tall walls, preventing anyone from entering the cathedral. The «Immortal Walls» that extend from Centoria to the «Mountain Range at the Edge» 750 kilometers away from Centoria extend out from the 4 corners of the cathedral's white walls. The main gates to the cathedral's grounds are located to the east, likely because that is the direction that Solus (the Sun in Underworld) rises from. A wide road extends from the gate to the actual Church.

The material used in building the cathedral was marble of the highest grade, like the «immortal walls» that divided Central Centoria as a cross. The walls of the cathedral have the ability to repair themselves if it is ever pierced.

Background
The Central Cathedral was built by Quinella, as a place to worship the Gods. As Quinella gained more power she started adding more floors, until it reached a hundred floors.

Not even the highest-ranked nobles are allowed to enter the Central Cathedral's ground. Only Integrity Knights and priests of the Axiom Church are allowed to do so.

Floors



 * An Underground Prison (地下牢) exists beneath the cathedral. The jail is constructed with 8 passages extending out like the spokes of a wheel and each passage housed 4 cells on both of its sides and each cell being capable of holding 2 prisoners, meaning that the prison itself can house up to 128 prisoners. The eight passages convened at the small jailer's guardroom in the space near where the wheel hub would be, with a spiral staircase extending aboveground surrounding it. The guardroom is a hollow stone pillar with a diameter of around 5 meters that is encircled by the staircase and stands in the middle of the circular space that the 8 passages connect to. The entrance to the prison is a doorless rectangular hole in the ground.


 * A Rose Garden (バラ園) of thousands of roses exists on the west side of the cathedral, surrounding the underground prison. The Rose Garden is a maze of bronze fences with rose vines densely twining around them. The western gate of the maze from the prison area connects to a rectangle plaza, with a bench and a fountain, that serves as a landing field for the Integrity Knights' dragons. The plaza has several gates that lead to different parts of the rose maze. The cathedral's rose garden is the only place in the Human World where non-wild roses are allowed to be grown due to their immense Sacred Power reserves. Because of this garden, high-ranking Sacred Arts can be cast within the cathedral's grounds.


 * An Equipment Vault (武具保管庫) is located on the 3rd floor. The doors to the equipment vault have embossed carvings of two goddesses, Solus and Terarria. Although the doors look as if they have such an intensity that they could not be open no matter how much force was put in pulling or pushing them, they actually open with a mere bit of force. The vault, which is as big as the Sword Mastery Academy's training arena, is where the Axiom Church stores hundreds of sets of armour as well as numerous Divine Instrument-class weapons to prevent anyone in the Human World from getting enough equipment to oppose the church. The vault is located 30 meters away from a staircase leading to the upper floors.


 * The Dragon Landing Field («飛竜» 発着場) is located on the 30th floor of the cathedral.


 * The 50th floor is known as the «Grand Corridor of Spiritual Light» (霊光の大回廊).


 * An elevating disk (昇降盤) runs between the 50th and 80th floors.


 * The Cloudtop Garden (雲上庭園) is located on the 80th floor.


 * A Big Bath (大浴場) occupies the 90th floor of the cathedral.


 * The Watchtower of Morning Star (暁星の望楼) is located on the 95th floor of the cathedral.


 * The 96-99th floors are the Senate (元老院).


 * The 100th is the top floor where the Administrator's living room (アドミニストレータの居室) is located.
