Shrines within Ashtan

Written by: Twilight, God of Darkness
Date: Sunday, January 16th, 2000
Addressed to: Miss Echo l'Altro di Rienzi


The fact still remains that a _shrine_ was constructed. Regardless of the reasons behind its creation, a shrine is a structure erected by those who are devoted to the Gods benevolent to the Church and do so to honour those Gods. Thus, if the Church sanctioned a shrine's destruction, I am prone to think that the Church is becoming selective about what it holds "sacred" and only adopts ethos, symbols and rites, if it suits them. By allowing _any_ shrine to fall into disuse and disrepair the Church is ignoring one of their important duties as the acknowledged "Keepers of the Shrines."

Walk in the Shadows,
Twilight, God of Darkness

Penned by my hand on the 16th of Chronos, in the year 238 AF.
