Abandoned Shrine to The First Ones

Purpose / Function

The original purpose of this place was to be a shrine to the mysterius entities known as The First Ones, believed to have been in popular worship before The Ander Vale was established as a country. But after time and decay, and the fall of this worship, this small shrine has become an abandoned and forgotten, only housing bandits and other vagrents.   The ground is Hallowed cast at 9th level (See Hollow Spell) with the additional effect of Tongues (Tongues: Affected creatures can communicate with any other creature in the area, even if they don't share a common language.)

Alterations

The stone wall around has crumbled, leaving gaping holes in the side. The box containing this ancient artifact has gone missing, and has been missing for thousands of years.

Architecture

The shrine has a protective stone wall that is 60x60. There is a building attached to the side where priests and clerics would live, and in the center there is an elabroate stone gazebo of greek design that has on it the alter in which a box sat upon. Inside is a powerful artifact.

History

Common Knowledge (0-10)
  Ehn Seida is Ancient Common for "The First to Bless" which references Seida, the first cleric to Magna. According to the history books, this shrine was among the first shrines to Magna, and after the death of The First Ones, it became a shrine to Seida. She was a lesser known First One, so her shrine went abandoned and unprotected.  
Moderate Knowledge (11-15)
In the time of the First Ones, no one worshipped Magna, so this shrine was originally seen as heretical and Seida's name was slandered pretty hard. Most people today who don't really research the topic think she's a heretic.  
Expert Knowledge (16+)
Seida was excecuted at her shrine, as were the rest of the First Ones. The bodies were turned to stone using basilisks and brought to the Tower of the First Ones, where they now rest.
