====== Temple of Ulos ======

A building made long ago that honored the entire pantheon of [[deities|gods]] across both [[nalos|Nalos]] and the [[dragul|Dragul]]. The [[azema_s_bones|bones]] of [[azema|Azema the Benevolent]], the creator of [[ulos|Ulos]], rest in catacombs located beneath the structure.

>//Built long before the strife between [[nalos|Nalos]] and the [[dragul|Dragul]], the wide columns and domed ceiling of this temple enclose a massive sanctuary populated with statues of all the many [[deities|gods]] of every [[races|race]] in [[ulos|Ulos]]. Flames still burn before the [[nalos|Nalos]] gods while the [[dragul|Dragul]] [[deities|gods]] rest in darkness, their effigies neglected.// - Eye of Ulos (RPA-ADV4)

A [[focusing_lens|focusing lens]] is found at the base of a statue here.
