− | Each settlement on Canticle has a Chorus of their own, kept in a specialized containment chamber called a Reliquary--a glass drum with an open top. The Reliquary is often located in the middle of a settlement. Those in the Chorus are able to be divided amongst settlements by transferring some of the [[Investiture|smoke]] from their Reliquary, this is done with the founding of any new settlement.{{book ref|tsm|22}} |
