A wide bridge spans the gap between two mountains, leading to a series of pillars, each representing a particular ideal:

  • 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, his tail curled around the base.
  • The Pillar of Loyalty, where a statue of Warlord Sylence Ikari looms over passing worshippers.
