Anesidore

This is where you live. Anesidore is the planetoid which Talon has crafted for you, tailored specifically to meet the needs of the Work necessary for Apotheosis. It is threaded through from outer to inner by the Six Orbits of Space which perfectly iconize space itself, and which are analogous to the Six Orbits of Time, which are the icon of time and which are represented by the Rose Windows contained in the diastole of each of Six Orbits of Space.

Anesidore orbits around a black dwarf star, with an orbital period of sixty days. This star system is situated within sight of Arachne, a large galaxy consisting of ancient red stars.

Life on Anesidore is split into Day and Night, each lasting for twelve hours. Day is when Talon is visible as Sun, and Night is when Talon is visible as Moon. You orient your Work around the cycles both of Day and Night, and the trin-day cycle of traversal from systole to diastole of each Orbit (the length of one half-Orbit): vigeve days' accommodation given for traversing and completing the Work requires in one half of an Orbit, and three days' accommodation given at the Remembry, whose wells are situated at each diastole, directly beneath each Rose Window.
