Overview

The Outward Luminance is the part of the soul that embodies one’s best self—the light projected to the world, filled with ideals, virtues, and the innate desire to inspire others. It’s the facet of the soul that reflects the image of who one strives to be, allowing individuals to connect, empathize, and influence those around them positively.

Known as the "Beacon of Becoming," this facet is said to be the soul’s reflection in the world, a shining reminder of potential. Tales describe it as an influence that encourages people to become more than their shadows, illuminating paths toward purpose. It acts as a counterbalance to the darker parts of the soul, shielding the spirit against despair and motivating self-betterment.
