Sacred Temple
🕑 Added 2024-08-31 13:20:34 +0000 UTC"Of the most sacred duties within, maintaining the springs and the life within the cut stone walls was of the highest priority. Skylights were carved and meticulously maintained to provide the flora and fauna the desperately needed light of the sun. In the cool winter nights, the braziers were lit as needed to provide such a climate that sustained the perfection of the inner chamber.
No matter the state of affairs, be it starvation, thirst, even war, never once has the Wellsprings suffered. Constant offerings, labor, and planning had maintained these pools since beyond remembrance. While not often, history can recount deaths made in sacrifice to keep the springs intact.
It would be easy to ask, "why would such wise folk allow such wasteful death in the name of such a place?", and the answer is surprisingly simple. Of all the harshness and horrors of the world, should there not be one place that is untouched by such blights? This was the idea worth dying for. Sacrificing ones' self to perpetuate something good, something untainted, something unchanging. This was the higher honor than death in battle or for kingdoms. Rather than being valiant in destruction, fighting a war of preservation against all of time, to keep purity alive and everlasting."`
Hey all!
Final map of the month for you all to enjoy and following on from the last map, Sacred Entrance, we have this very cosy and relaxing little temple interior. A perfectly serene place for your players to hopefully find enlightenment and perhaps a little bit of wisdom.
And yes the temple has people who look after the Koi fish.
