The Cave Landmark was one of the original landmarks that became volatile when the comet Ethian travelled close to Sapience in it's yearly cycle through the heavens. During the month of Sarapin, the cave's alignment could be influenced to provide either Essence or Devotion to those with the ability to manipulate such energies. When under the influence of Devotion users, the cave took on the aspect of the Crystal Cavern, when Essence users held sway it became the Cave of Golgotha. The cave's unique resonance left it influenced by either the spiritual uplifting of orphans enrolled within the Basilican choir, or the split second of pain suffered by those orphans enrolled within Ashtan's Orphanage.
The Cave Landmark was eventually destroyed by Sartan when the Occultists rejected Evil and Necromancy in favour of their precious Chaos.
