The Myessach Assembly Dome is a popular place of communion within the underwater city of Minifera.
Background[ | ]
Appearing as a large crystalline dome that is set inside the trench wall, any adult naiadan or naiadapt is allowed to attend the governing assembly meeting beneath the Myessach Assembly dome. Despite this fact, however, only a handful of citizenry ever really appear. The ones attending the meeting the most are deemed "part of the Council of Myessach".
Depending on the importance of the message or decision reached by the council, the outcome will be relayed through different communication channels, such as via mouth, via release of coded message chemicals into the surrounding water, via physical messenger,... The most outlandish of these are "ultra-communion" events, where the council members will all link up to form a single-thinking entity, leaving little room for misunderstanding and being able to send telepathic news to all naiadans everywhere, including those within distant settlements or embassies.
The dome's caretaker is a male naiadan named Thakarsis, who guards the council whenever they're in communion. If no meeting is being held, he'll usually try to maintain the upkeep of the structure. Thakarsis is one of a few people who know that there is a portal at the rear of the dome. This portal leads to a tunnel about a foot in diameter which connects Minifera to Persamlor. Whenever a decision has been made by the council, Tharkasis will secretly send it through the tunnel over to a dissident faction of other naiadans. [1]
