>>293Yeah, I'll delve into the rabbit hole.
>>275Anyway, I've just rewritten the part you have found hard to digest:
A myriad of millennia-old oak trees obscured the side view, forming an open-sky aisle paved with yellow and red leaves now crossed by new adepts ready to be indoctrinated by a modern idol deemed infallible—Education.
The temple they were approaching wasn't, originally, a pagan one. As tall as the monuments to greed called skylines but stripped of any source of pride, this circular colossus was built, stone upon stone, by sinners as penance for having eclipsed the sun in their era, but, now, admired by thousands of bewitched infidels. However, there was an exception. A lone devotee who kept his eyes down, afraid of being uncovered by the 'Wicked Heresiarch' now spying through the temple's small-round eye.
Consequently, his gaze fell upon the building beneath, founded by exiled priests guilty of pledging allegiance to an author rather than accepting chaos as the ruler of their lives—'La Sacrée Cathédrale Notre-Dame des Saints Miraval.' The legendary cathedral possessed half the ego of the pagan temple but ten times its magnificence, renowned across the continent for its façade—a mosaic of millions of tiny, colored glass pieces depicting the twelve holy heroes.
Clearly, I won't rewrite my entire book like this, but do you find this style helpful to make the descriptions more digestible?
