Millenarian Gate

First Appearance and Context

The Millenarian Gate is mentioned when the gate mechanisms are described around the river crossing and outer bastions. In that account, the gates for the Unarian, Decenarian, and Centenarian maths are housed in bastions across the river, while the Millenarian Gate is up on the mountain and works differently from those water- and shaft-driven portals.

Roles/Actions and Affiliations

• Serves as the dedicated portal for the Thousanders’ community, the Millenarian Math.
• Distinguished from the other interval gates that are opened by the great works tied to the riverbank bastions; it is noted to "work differently," though no further mechanical detail is provided in the present account.

Relationships

• Contrasted with the time-governed gates that open from the bastions across the river: the Year Gate, the Decade Gate, and the Centenarian Gate.
• Situated above the central hall of the mathic complex centered on the Mynster, though its exact mechanism and approach are not described here.

Descriptions/Characteristics

• Location: Up on the mountain, associated with the crag on which the Millenarian community resides.
• Mechanism: Stated only to operate differently from the water-powered system that drives the riverbank gates; specific workings are not detailed in the available text.

Current Status/Location

Active as a named portal of the Millenarian community. In the current account its location and distinct operation are noted, but no opening or passage through it is described.
