Caelorum Venti

Caelorum Venti is the title used by the Vidyadhara High Elder of the Xianzhou Yaoqing, successor of the Winged Dragon, Sovereign of Storms, and is tasked with watching over the Lunar Embryo.

History

In the Year 4800 Star Calendar, the five lineages of the Vidyadhara made an alliance on the Yuque, putting their sacred vow into writing: "This oath shall remain unbroken, standing stronger than even earth and steel."^[1] The five High Elders were bound to keep watch over the respective plaguemarks of each Xianzhou ship. Caelorum Venti was bound to watch over the Lunar Embryo on the Yaoqing.^[2]

The Caelorum Venti Pavilion in Moon Delve is one of the most well-known tourist sites of the Yaoqing. The place commemorates how the previous Caelorum Venti fought valiantly and slew an herd abomination named the Hundred Hands. It took the Artisanship Commission of the Yaoqing and 3000 Vidyadhara craftsmen more than 20 years to build the pavilion with large slabs of jade and moonstone and is hailed as the epitome of the Yaoqing Vidyadhara architectural style. Vidyadhara Windsayers have laid a "Feather Path" in the pavilion that links 16 floating islands together to allow people to walk freely in the air without any flying or floating equipment.^[3]

After the Sedition of Imbibitor Lunae in the Year 7379 Star Calendar, Caelorum Venti put forward a strong case and made a deal with the Xianzhou Alliance that Dan Feng was to be spared from the capital punishment of death and instead suffer the punishment of hatching rebirth, where he should have been regarded as a new being and his sins forgiven. However, the Ten-Lords Commission instead detained his next incarnation, Dan Heng, in the Shackling Prison, leading General Jing Yuan to banish him from the Luofu.^[4][5] At some point, Caelorum Venti sent a missive to Bailu's Preceptors, inquiring about the present status of her condition.^[6]
