'''The Ancient Circle''' is the association of those who will not forget. Historians and archaeologists here rub shoulders with the foulest kind of fascist and reactionary. Members of the Ancient Circle are blessed... or cursed, with a vise-like memory that lets nothing escape and a knowledge of histories that they should not know. Recently, however, faultlines have begun appearing in the Ancient Circle between those who seek to remember history and those who seek to restore it. Some whisper that this reflects a conflict between the Monument's mind itself, a struggle for the very fate of the Hour...

'''The Pale Knight''' An empty, hollow suit of bone-white armour powered by ancient magics and sorceries and machinery, this was the first of the Highest Laboratory's children to be reawakened.It serves as the foremost military Name of the Monument, its strange runic sword carving eldritch, ancient scars and the machinery within it hiding a dozen secret weapons and techniques, in the form of gulfs of impossibly radiant fire, plumes and spires of black magic, and other, stranger things...
'''The Ashen Emperor''' The right to be called Ashen Emperor is a bloodline and a title, not a person. From Justinian's pact with the Monument onwards, the power of the ancient Hour flowed within the his blood and that of his descendants, but it only wakes in one. A member of House Iulianos ascending to the throne of Old Byzantium takes along with the emperorship this title, and the status of Name, and they cease to become themselves in entirety, but the will of their bloodline and ancestors.

*The Highest Laboratory
Once, there was a people before the Subsumption. They built wonders and marvels and this was chief among them. A great laboratory near the light of the Glory to construct magnificent inventions and creations that would change the world forever. Its great height saved it from the majority of the Subsumption, but it is still in ruin, much of the delicate machinery decayed and destroyed without the maintenance of the old civilization, but still within it a million glorious creations that have not been yet equalled await, silent, unawakened, ready for the touch of a user.
