The Temple of Passing tides
It's manned by a Priest and a younger accolite.
They seem to be local people, who serve no particular god but take good care of the temple itself.
The temple is maintained in good order and seems to be almost too rich and elaborate for the small village.
It is very obvious that the gods Bussura and Varron are the two that most often receive offerings and prayers, which is only logical in a village that lives of the sea.
However, every major god seems to have a representation or a small alcove dedicated to them, as would occur in temples of larger cities like Keylethia.
The structure is large, and exposed to the elements. It consists mostly of three concentric rows of stone columns that support a large domed roof, with an opening at its center.
The outer rows of columns hold a mixture of heavy pelts and leathers that mostly close the structure tot he wind, yet leave the possibility to open the temple completely.
At the center of the structure, a large stone altar covered with a thin veneer of gold is the focal point of the gathering congregation.
The base of the altar is decorated on all sides with a nautical theme of agitated winds and waves in two tones of stone cleverly used in contrast.
To the back of the temple, a separate structure almost resting against it, a few flat and square rooms house the temple staff.
