The High Temple of the Order

This temple is the capitol of all places of worship for followers of Emeth; it is the Teyvélian equivalent of St. Peter's Basilica and the Vatican. Here the High Priest(ess), resides over all of Emeth's teachings, giving guidance to all priests under him/her. The High Temple also doubles as a school for students of Emethan Theology.

Purpose / Function

In addition to being a place of worship for Emethans, the High Tmple serves as the headquarters for the Order, the residence of the High Priest and members of the Theology School, the primary location for spiritual conferences involving priests, and a school of higher spiritual learning for priests in training.

Architecture

As with all Teyvélian structures, the High Temple bears an architectural style similar to that of Asian culture. The building is made of wood, clay, stone and other materials. Within the structure, wood floors are everywhere, with paper walls dividing rooms into section.
