Senate Chambers

Formal Senate Chamber on Luna where political proceedings and climactic scenes unfold.

The Senate Chambers on Luna begin as the gilded heart of Gold oligarchy in Morning Star, where Darrow’s infiltration and the Sons of Ares’ daring assault shatter centuries of unchallenged rule. Over the course of the series the once-sacrosanct hall transforms from a symbol of tyranny into a contested arena of fragile democracy, hosting the fragile birth of the Republic and later becoming the stage for its near-collapse during the Rising’s civil wars. By the later books it stands as both a monument to hard-won reform and a reminder that power, once wrested from the Board of Quality Control, still demands vigilant defense.
