The White Orchid Temple, the senior Temple of the Froyalanish Ancient Ways.

The White Orchid Temple, also known as Dróttningstemplet, which means "queen's temple" in the Froyalanish and Wintergleamish languages, is one of the Thirteen Temples of Eluin. The temple is the senior temple of the Froyalanish Ancient Ways and the seat of the Hjartardýrlafðir, the spiritual leadership of the aforesaid faith. It is situated in the Forest of Araxion.

History

The temple was founded as the Vanic Temple in Araxion by Count Harald of Araxion through the issuance of a Comital Charter as well as a monetary donation from both him and the Jólaslafðir. It was the first non-Vattnalandish temple of the Ancient Ways in the Flower of the North.

The temple adopted the name of White Orchid Temple upon the inclusion of the Goddess Elwynn in the worship of the Froyalanish and Wintergleamish Vanafolk.
