On the eastern side of the city, across the Accra River, lies the historic '''Cyclade,''' the hill upon which the monastery of the Ashuran monks is seated. The hill originally held the "Minorus Basilica," built by the Church during Shallam's occupation of Ashtan. Easy access to this Basilica was what the Church had in mind when they built the [[Sanctuary Bridge]] across the river. In 172 AF, the Kharon monks took the fortress as their own, and when they moved to Hashan, they took the fortress with them. The Ashuran Monastery took its place. | On the eastern side of the city, across the Accra River, lies the historic '''Cyclade,''' the hill upon which the monastery of the Ashuran monks is seated.

The '''[[Arboretum of Enlightenment]]''', '''de Vermiis Art Gallery''', and '''Loving Hearts Orphanage''' were all built by the legendary [[Occultist]] [[Servelan de Vermiis]]. The Arboretum contains many strange and exotic plant species. The de Vermiis Art Gallery, while receiving critical praise, has been said by some to depict the Church in an unfair light. The Loving Hearts Orphanage is where children are led to be slaughtered so that their pineal glands can be harvested. | The '''[[Arboretum of Enlightenment]]''', '''de Vermiis Art Gallery''', and '''Loving Hearts Orphanage''' were all built by the legendary [[Occultist]] [[Servelan de Vermiis]].
