Historical Architecture - Part 3

Angel Temple

The continent of Grittlanni is a freign place to the civilized races, even to many of the shadowkin who call it their home and homeland. Few such places are more mysterious than the angel temple, a building built in a unique style of uniqu materials, and inhabited (ocasionally) by unique creatures.

The building is built atop a large stone pyramid, built of stone blocks each wider than the one above it - and the largest one at the base nearly a quarter mile in both width and length of flawless sone, though only a foot tall. The block above it is fifteen inches less from all sides, and it repeats until the top, each block flawless in all ways. The building itself is also square, and appears to be carved from a similarly flawless single peice of stone. The ceiling is a hemisphere of thick, impenitrible glass, and all the walls, inside and out are fit with ensconced torches that burn without fuel inside golden-lined archways to illuminate the building constantly, even in the darkest of nights. It is, in fact, this light that most often leads explorers to this building.

Outside of the strangeness of how the building is built, there is the strangeness of when it was built. Each of the gods in turn will deny having built it, yet the power it contains insist it was done so by magic, yet it's earliest sighting places it well beyond the first day of the year of recording, and centuries before magic was granted to the land by the gods.

The truth of the structure is in what lies beyond the gods, and in the true nature of the multiverse. From another reality came creatures never created upon Ronar, and never intended to be seen there. These creatures are the angels, the creautres that occasionally visit this magical world, and tap into it's powers.

Visitors to this site often find simply it's incredible architecture. Occasionally, if one is lucky, they may see one of the angels that visit, and if they are even luckier, be granted he opportunity to learn from them.
