History
The Seat of Vastar was once a nunnery known as the Lesser Shrine of Vastar built during the reign of the Seleucarian Empire. Discovered by survivors of the cataclysm following the fall of Seleucar, they hid within the ruins and remarkably survived the years of the Dark Ages. Believing they owed their survival to Vastar himself (whom the school happened to be dedicated to), they proclaimed him one true God of everything. Renaming the shrine the Seat of Vastar, a local cult sprang up devoted to his worship, its descendants still inhabiting the ruins to this day.
Geography
The ruined school is located atop a mesa which affords it some protection from the creatures of the Atrousian Jungle below. The rust-coloured rock is creased with deep ridges and small overhangs which offer little hope of climbing save from one side. Old flowerbeds and ancient fruit orchards are maintained on the south face, providing a variation in the diet of the inhabitants.

Culture
The inhabitants of the Seat of Vastar are monotheistic and fiercely loyal to Vastar. They have immense respect for Atavians, and outfit themselves in wooden wings to display their devotion to the Skylord. Children are bestowed their wooden wings in a ceremony led by the clerics, and often decorate them with feathers and other found objects.
