-Designed by the architect Blalock-Taussig, this gate is marked by a naming error. Indeed, while it is located in the south of the city, it was named "septentrional", an error that cost its creator his life on the orders of the God-King Coloquinte Ier. Today, every passage through this gate is a reminder of this mistake, as the tombstone of Blalock-Taussig is integrated into the ground, trampled by all who cross.+Designed by architect Blalock-Taussig, this gate is marked by a naming mistake. Indeed, while it is located in the south of the city, it was named "septentrional", an error that cost its creator his life on the orders of God-King Coloquinte the Ist. Today, every passage through this gate is a reminder of this mistake, as the tombstone of Blalock-Taussig is integrated into the ground, and trampled by all who cross.
  
-The Septentrional Gate of Immense Solitude is guarded by often grumpy soldiers, as their post is generally a punishment. Travelers arriving through this gate are all suspects, often forced to be taken to the Lazaret to prevent the spread of potential diseases.+The Septentrional Gate of Immense Solitude is guarded by often grumpy soldiers, as their post is generally a punishment. Travelers arriving through this gate are all suspects. They must be sent to the Lazaret (sometimes under arrest) to prevent the spread of potential diseases.
  
-Despite its dark history and austere atmosphere, the Septentrional Gate of Immense Solitude is a passage to the Monastery of Ultimate Flamboyance and the Ash Valley, a sacred place for funeral ceremonies of the followers of the Fire cults. It is therefore a mandatory passage for many pilgrims and a symbol of the city of Laelith, mixing history, mystery, and spirituality.+Despite its dark history and austere atmosphere, the Septentrional Gate of Immense Solitude is a mandatory passage for many pilgrims. Indeed, it gives access, out of the city, to the monastery of Ultimate Flamboyance and to the Valley of Ashes, a sacred place for the funeral ceremonies of followers of the Fire cults. It is therefore a symbol of the city of Laelith, mixing history, mystery, and spirituality.
