So quick to point fingers at who might be responsible for such things (shrines in Ashtan AND Hashan), when the truth is, nobody can be sure. Is it not also possible that members of Miramar's Order, who need the aide more, found some bold soul to place them in the cities in order to take some of the heat from them and begin a full-blown continental war? I would say that the Church indeed gains from having a shrine near Ashtan, as we are all aware of the powers of such structures, and with the recent shrine warring occuring, such a slap in the face would have quite demoralizing effects. So I would say that before one decides who did what for which purpose, one takes all the possibilities into consideration, having noted, of course, the variety of possible motives for such shrine placement.
