The White Lectern is a divine artifact in the world of Perpetua. It is tied to the goddess Lucenna, one of the Perpetuan pantheon known as the Ennead. Lucenna is associated with knowledge, light, and invention. Veile Lynndel is on a quest to reach this place to beg Lucenna to put an end to the cycle of Perpetua, supported by the crew of the Little Snail and fringe elements of the church, including Vinnor Jekk.
