Saunt Mithra

First Appearance and Context

Saunt Mithra is referenced through the co‑named telescope mounted on the Starhenge above the central tower at the Concent of Saunt Edhar. The instrument is prepared for scheduled observations; on a clearing evening a cosmographer reserved it, aimed it in advance, and readied a photomnemonic tablet. The paired telescopes are colloquially called “M & M.”

Affiliations and Relationships

• Co‑namesake with Saunt Mylax of the principal clock‑coupled telescope; the instrument Mithra is installed on the starhenge above the Praesidium at Saunt Edhar.

Important Actions

• The telescope bearing Mithra’s name is used for targeted, high‑magnification observing as part of routine rooftop work.
• As reported by Sammann of the Ita, acting under instruction from a hierarch, he retrieved a photomnemonic tablet that Fraa Orolo had placed in the co‑named telescope shortly before rooftop access was closed by the Warden Regulant. Sammann states he made a copy before delivery, and that Orolo had not yet viewed the image at that time.
