We visit one of the region’s best winemakers for a tour and tasting in a historic chateau. We are in the heart of this famous wine-producing region where vines have been planted since Gallo-Roman times. Whilst much of the abbey was destroyed during the Revolution, we enjoy a fascinating guided tour of this atmospheric place. Artefacts exemplifying the wealth of Cluny Abbey are today on display at the Musée de Cluny in Paris. The monks wore the finest linen religious habits and silk vestments at Mass. Instead of being limited to the traditional fare of broth and porridge, the monks ate very well, enjoying roasted chickens (a luxury in France then), wines from their vineyards and cheeses made by their employees. Despite the monastic ideal of a frugal life, Cluny Abbey commissioned candelabras of solid silver and gold chalices made with precious gems for use at the abbey Masses. Its wealth enabled the monastery to hire workers to do the traditional labour of monks allowing them to devote themselves to almost constant prayer, thus elevating their position into a profession. In the 12th century, a network of 1450 abbeys and 10,000 monks made up the order of Cluny under a highly original and successful system the Abbots of Cluny became leaders on the international stage and the monastery of Cluny was considered the most prestigious monastic institution in Europe. After our first splendid breakfast, we depart the ship and enjoy the short drive to Cluny Abby, one of the most glorious Benedictine abbeys of the Christian Middle Ages. To apologize for her misunderstanding, she offers Arnice tea and allows her to take any one thing from her room.Nothing beats the excitement of waking up somewhere new and as you rise this morning, we arrive in the delightful town of Mâcon, the capital of the Mâconnais region of Burgundy.

She also possesses a perfume bottle that she claims contains a human soul. She explains that demons cannot give birth or foster life, which is why they are attracted to the creations of humans. She asks the lizard fiends to pluck flowers for her from the Rose Count Garden, as she is fond of the things humans cultivate.
#NIGHTS OF AZURE MISTRAL CHOICE FULL#
Mistral owns a book called "The Complete History of Heresy." She states that it is full of lies, but that it can be fun to search for the glimmer of truth between its lines. Twenty years later, that child was meant to be the heir to the family that adopted him, but he succumbed to darkness. She was able to feel that the woman bore a child inside her, so she ripped her open with her bare hands and saved the child. She only found the corpse of a young woman who was likely attacked by fiends. The only time she left the palace was when she heard a voice crying for help. She wandered Ruswal in search for the Nightlord's soul, but upon learning that the Curia was in control of the night, she secluded herself in the Shrine of Sorrow, and has not shown herself to others for at least two decades. Mistral has been around to at least come in contact with the knights of the Curia that preceded Arnice. Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

She is saddened by the disappearance of the Nightlord and hopes for his return. Although she quickly assumed that Arnice came to slay her based on the knowledge that she is a knight of the Curia, Mistral became more than willing to reason with Arnice after noticing how strong and attractive she was.

She wears silver and golden jewelry around her waist and throughout the entirety of her snake body. Her snake body is blue and orange, and she wraps it around a stone pillar that is capable of summoning fiends. She possesses four chakrams and a blue fan that she uses as weapons. On her body she wears a very revealing thin white veil with golden accents. She wears a blue and gold hat with two green and red feathers respectively and an ornament resembling a scale. Her human portion has water green skin, long black hair and golden eyes. Mistral is a cross between a giant snake and a woman with four arms.
