'''Shrines''', usually statues or monuments to certain [[:Category:Gods|deities]] of [[Achaea]], are found on nearly all [[:Category:Continents|continents]] and [[:Category:Planes|planes]]. [[Offering|Offerings]] of [[gold]] or corpses may be offered at a shrine to increase the [[Divine essence|essence]] pool of the God, which in turn allows [[Divine_Order|order]] members to perform such tasks as worldburning their enemies and healing their order members. | '''Shrines''', usually statues or monuments to certain [[:Category:Gods|deities]] of [[Achaea]], are found on nearly all [[:Category:Continents|continents]] and [[:Category:Planes|planes]].

Once a shrine is erected by a member of a Divine Order of sufficient rank, it must be sanctified with offerings. Through the process of sanctification, it will undergo several physical changes from a crude, dormant shrine into a large, powerful one. | |||
Shrines may be destroyed by the act of defiling. A vast amount of essence is required to destroy a shrine utterly, but doing so successfully will, in turn, cost the Divine essence. Each Divine is said to have a Master Shrine. It is usually found within the safety of Their temple although Master Shrines cannot be destroyed through normal means. | Shrines may be destroyed by the act of defiling.
