The Shattered Temple
Not a lot of bashers are lining up to visit the Athar's headquarters. Sure the clueless tramped all over the place back when the Lost still gave tours of the place, but those who don't have faction business there ten to avoid the area on account of its bad omens. After all there must be a reason that its ruined. Looks like a cataclysm - some say the Lady's wrath - razed not just the temple, but the entire street.
Folks still live just at the edge of the devastation though. Visitors there come upon freshly cobbled streets and tightly clustered houses and inns. The beams and stones of these buildings look old bobbed from the tattered remains of destroyed building, but the construction lookd new and tidy enough. Heading towards the temple a body might notice the Soused Duck on the right. This tavern and the Generous coin corner shop next door popped up long ago to serve faction members.
The bustle and hubbub of the Cage fades as a body approaches the temple. A breeze whispers through coarse grasses littered with tumbled stone and splintered wood. Some of Sigil's poor wander here, scavenging bricks and loose beams from the falling down buildings. The sods look more than a little uneasy and don't linger.
The tilted skeleton of the Shattered Temple looms above these and other lesser ruins. Razorvine curtains its ragged walls, listing buttresses and cracked towers. The Lost have shored up the remains but they like the ravaged look of the place somost of the repairs aren't visible from the outside. They gain comfort from this mute witness to the fact that the powers can die. As did the near forgotten god of portals that was once worshipped here, back when this place was called the Temple of Doors.
