The Chapters and Their Unison

The Weir Gate still stands though the proving grounds of Septim's Warwyrd rip hollow across Kyn's Slipstream.
So what?
White Gold is neither Tower, nor Wheel; she's a Synesthetic Harp.
And?
I'm getting there. Chance to pluck her strings, and the manna camera would convert color to orchestra: White Noise to Gold.
So these strings - what are they? Are they the Precinct Walls?!
Hella NO. (Ask yourself: what is the Huntington Library? More than a library.)
The strings are the moth-weave of Man, spun across the soundhole by moth-priests. And those strings were cut. Not only was White Gold crippled by loss of her tuning keys, and the ancestry of Man imperiled, but Nir's first line of defense against Numidium's return, was lost to the rip-current's of Slipstream. For you see, the Battlespire's Library was the head, which spanned all Nir, and Moon Reaver cut her moorings free.
