Shrine to Helyn

The small shrine atop the Soloace cliffs on Elysia is dedicated to Helyn of the Gods of Elysia. Many travelers, especially Elves, who are struggling with who they are, visit the shrine, including Lavi during the blight.   A square room with a statue of Helyn stood outside. The colonnade around the walls is formed of Marble and wood twisting around each other with an archway leading inside. Inside hundreds of small green flames float around the room, one flame for each offering given within the chamber.   A strange calm passes over any who enter, with a few even choosing to just lie down and sleep within the shrine, allowing for self-discovery.

It is said that lighting incense within the shrine is said to summon several apparitions of the parts of your self-image that are in conflict. This is said to vary from Lavi seeing herself as a child next to an older her as a bloody conquerer, Gilda 'Rum Lover' Hades also apparently saw herself both as a young male sailor and a beautiful lady of a court.
