Nestor: Cold Mist (Ledaal Iago).


Location: Five Dragons Courtyard (Temple District, Imperial City)


Description: A gaudy temple, with domes of oxidized copper, sea-blue pillars and scarlet curtains, edged in plates and braids of gold. It is a shrine to the Salt Gods of the Blessed Isle, where the Scarlet Empress would come to set the Salt Rate and grant them the prayer due them for performing their role in the Perfected Hierarchy as provisioners of Salt. This ritual is still performed by the Regent, though with far less authority. The monks of this temple do not worship the salt gods upon any day save that of the ritual, spending their time instead in meditation, training, or maintenance duties.


The temple vault contains a number of Sanctums of Contemplative Reflection for housing salt gods who prove unwilling to abide by the centrally-negotiated rate.


Monks: Frozen Peak (Mnemon Furusha, temple lector), Warding Wood, ?


Patrons: who indeed, I wonder?
