It was the first temple to be consecrated in the name of the Eight Brothers on Traith shortly after the liberation of Brisckarin. This building was previously a temple dedicated to the now fallen god Zarpurazz. The avatars of several of the Eight Brother purged the dark energies of Zarpurazz and blessed grounds in their names.

The Grand Cathedral is the tallest structures in Brisckarin. It was originally constructed of simple stone brick but has been renovated at least twice since its initial construction over three thousand years ago. The last and most luxurious of the renovation was shortly after its consecration to the Eight Brother. The temple now has eight entrances with double doors each one having an ornate holy symbol of one of the Eight Brother. As the main structure climbs above the cities skyline seven smaller towers jut off at different height intervals.

Tourism

Some of these religious pilgrims have traveled from as far away as the Kingdom of Tepth to pay homage on the grounds where the avatars once stood and Draxx bestowed blessing upon several people.
