The Thirteen Temples of Eluin are thirteen Vanic temples which are situated in Elwynn, some of them ancient beyond the memory of woman, which over time have become recognized as the senior temples of the Froyalanish Ancient Ways.
The High Priestesses of the aforesaid thirteen Vanic temples form the Hjartardýrlafðir, the matriarchal council which since ancient times is the governing body of the Church of the Froyalanish Ancient Ways.
Temple | Royal Precinct (1651) | County (1659) | City | Fate |
---|---|---|---|---|
White Orchid Temple | County of Araxion | County of Araxion | Araxion Tower | Following the Auspicious Occasion the Dark Orchid Society crossed the western branch of river Elwynn into Araxion, stormed the temple. In this they were supported by the Brotherhood of Lest, who raped and butchered the priestesses, and with the blood of their victims rededicated the temple to the worship of Lest. The Dark Orchid Society, unable to restrain its fanatical allies, were obliged to acquiesce to the atrocity, in spite of their own reservations about alienating the Elw and attracting state or Imperial retribution. Re-dedicated as the Dark Orchid Temple. |
