Temple of War
I am the Weapon...
Born in War and tempered in Blood I will purge the world of pacifism Desolation and carnage are my voice I embrace neither good nor evil An enigma to the lands I oppose all who seek the veil of peace The precepts of kindness and mercy unknown to me I am the beginning and the end Forger of Empires and Conqueror of Lands I embrace my future death with blade in hand The archives of history tremble at my name I am an Aegean
Brutality Incarnate and War Eternal!
The Temple of War is home to Lord Aegis, the God of War. It is positioned in the southwest section of the Siroccian Mountains, located southwest of Delos.
A wide bridge spans the gap between two mountains, leading to a series of pillars representing the following:
- The Pillar of Brutality where a statue of Lord Valor stands
- The Pillar of Desolation where a statue of Ekary Lucoster, the Sinistar, founder of the Infernal Knights keeps vigil
- The Pillar of Vigilance where a statue depicting the Aegean warlord Mortifer Merre stands, tail curled around its base
- The Pillar of Loyalty where a statue of Warlord Sylence Ikari looms over the passing worshippers
Flanking the area of the pillars to the north and south are a stone pyramid and sacrificial pit, and seige workshop and practice area, respectively.
This area is linked to the archer-lined fortress of the Aegean Keep via a large, steel drawbridge. From here one may choose to climb up for a view from the parapets to the towering gardens, home of the Eileithyian Tree, or explore further into the Aegean Manor which accomodates many rooms, among them an archives and two chapels.
