The Grand Cathedral of Orlais is the heart of the Andrastian Chantry, and the seat of its leader, the Divine.

Background

Located within the opulent Orlesian capital of Val Royeaux, the Grand Cathedral is the centre of Chantry strength in all Thedas, and houses the figurehead of the religion, the Maker-anointed Divine. In the Grand Cathedral, the Chant of Light is sung in full, a process which takes a full two weeks to complete. In the audience chamber stands the Sunburst Throne, a seat reserved for the Divine.

Divinechamber

The chamber with the Sunburst Throne

About 15 years before the Divine Age, the followers of the Cults of the Maker began building a temple dedicated to their god, as the new religion spread quickly in the Kingdom of Ciriane, also known as Orlais. About ten years later in -3 Ancient (1192 TE) Orlais becomes the Empire of Orlais, and its king, Kordillus Drakon, becomes the emperor as he conquers many lands which he then converts to his own religion. Drakon establishes Cults of the Maker as the main religion of the country, and founds Chantry. Since then the temple serves as centre of the Chantry.

Three years later, in 1:1 Divine, the first Divine is selected. Justinia I is instated as leader of the religious order of Chantry at the still unfinished temple.

The Grand Cathedral is finished nearly two hundred years later in 2:99 Glory. Because of its two big towers visible for miles, the Towers Age is named.
